Abstract excerpt
Two polymorphic sites of the microsomal epoxide hydrolase gene (EPHX1, 113Tyr-->113His, 139His-->139Arg) and four glutathione S-transferase genes (GSTM1, GSTM3, GSTP1, GSTT1) were genotyped in a group of patients with larynx cancer (N=204) and in a group of healthy controls (N=203), all Spanish caucasians.
