Objective: Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the third most frequent cancer in the world and a heterogenious disease which aroze from one or a combination of different genetic mechanisms. The multiple drug resistance-1 (MDR1) gene which encodes P-glycoprotein (P-gp) plays a part in the bioavailability of drugs and cell toxicity. In the current study, we aimed to investigate the possible relation between the MDR1 gene C3435T polymorphism and CRC risk in the Turkish population.
