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 associ...
