Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The objective was to determine the prevalence of the polymorphisms of the microsomal epoxide hydrolase (Ephx1), glutathione S-transferase mu1 (GSTM ), theta1 (GSTT1), and pi1 (GSTP1) genes in patients with oropharyngeal carcinoma. STUDY DESIGN: Gene polymorphisms in 137 patients with oropharyngeal carcinoma were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction enzyme digestion for xenobiotic...
