Abstract excerpt
We assessed the association of three genetic polymorphisms, NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1), Glutathione-S-transferase P1 (GSTP1), and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), with lung cancer risk in 198 cases and 332 controls in Taiwan. Overall, NQO1 and MnSOD polymorphisms were not associated with an increased risk of lung cancer. Individuals carrying variant alleles of GSTP1 were at higher risk of...
