Abstract excerpt
Polymorphic glutathione-S-transferase (GST) genes causing variations in enzyme activity may influence individual susceptibility to lung cancer. In this case-control study (consisting of 389 Caucasian lung cancer patients, including 151 adenocarcinomas (ACs) and 172 squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs), and 353 hospital control subjects without malignant disease, genotype frequencies for GSTM1, GSTM3, GSTP1 and GSTT1...
