Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Previous studies have suggested that high levels of galactose consumption and/or low levels of galactose-I-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) activity may result in an increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancer. Similarly, some have reported that carriers of the N314D (asparagine at codon 314 replaced by aspartate) GALT polymorphism, which can be associated with low GALT activity, may have a higher...
