Partial association of restriction polymorphism of the ligand binding domain of human androgen receptor in prostate cancer
Conclusion Our results indicate that the loss of the restriction integrity in the C-terminal part (exons: 7 and 8) of the LBD is associated with the progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia to prostate cancer. (Source: Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics)

Cytokine gene polymorphisms and their association with cervical cancer: A North Indian study
Conclusion Therefore, the promoter polymorphisms in cytokine genes can be used as biomarkers to predict cervical cancer susceptibility in a north Indian population. However, such studies need to be carried out in different ethnic populations in order to discover the specific risk alleles, genotypes and combinations for disease prediction.

Molecular characterization of X chromosome fragility in idiopathic mental retardation
Conclusions A simplified checklist of fragile X should be used for patients with idiopathic MR and those patients above score 3 should be tested for FXS. The diagnostic assay may be used as a screening method for fragile X syndrome being rapid and cost effective compared to other techniques. In addition, screening of all relatives of proven patients should be performed to detect clinically unidentified cases for provision of proper counseling and optimal management of detected cases.
