To investigate the relationship between mtDNA variation and endometrial cancer, we collected blood samples from subjects with Han native background in Yunnan province in China, 49 of them with pathologically conformed endometrial cancer and 31 as controls with no cancer disease and sequenced two hypervariable segments of control region, part of 16sRNA gene, tRNA(leu) (tRNA is transfer RNA) gene and ND1 gene of mtDNA and identified some diagnostic polymorphisms by restriction fragment length polymorphism of coding region of mtDNA.
