Breast cancer and active and passive smoking: the role of the N-acetyltransferase 2 genotype.

American journal of epidemiology - 1 Aug 2000

Morabia A, Bernstein M S, Bouchardy I, Kurtz J, Morris M A

Abstract excerpt

The association of breast cancer with passive and active smoking was investigated in slow and fast acetylators of aromatic amines in a Geneva, Switzerland, study in 1996-1997. A slow acetylator was homozygous for one, or heterozygous for two, of three N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) polymorphisms determined on buccal cell DNA from 177 breast cancer cases and 170 age-matched, population controls. The reference group...
