To evaluate effects genotypic polymorphisms in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) on childhood ALL risk Taiwan, two well-known polymorphic genotypes MTHFR, C677T (rs1801133) A1298C (rs1801131), were analyzed examine extent their associations with susceptibility discuss MTHFR contribution among different populations.
