Abstract
The MDM2 SNP309 variant has been shown to increase MDM2 expression and to be associated with tumor formation. In glioblastomas, the P53/MDM2 pathway is of crucial importance and MDM2 amplification is related to poor prognosis. However, we show here that MDM2 SNP309 is not associated with glioblastoma risk, and is not a prognostic factor.
