Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To ascertain whether the point mutation of cDNA609 C to T of quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) gene is associated with the genetic susceptibility to nasopharyngeal carcinoma. METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was employed to assess the polymorphism of NQO1 genes both in 120 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 120 healthy subjects matched for age, gender and...
