[Role of polymorphic variants of cytochrome P450 genes (CYP1A1, CYP2E1) and microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEPHX) in pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis and chronic respiratory tract diseases].

Abstract excerpt

Frequencies of CYP1A1, CYP2E1, and mEPHX polymorphic variants were analyzed in cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive lung disease, bronchiectatic disease, chronic nonobstructive bronchitis, and recurring bronchitis. Mutations in CYP1A1 and mEPHX were shown to modify the severity of respiratory disorders in cystic fibrosis, the combination of CYP1A1 genotype Val/Val with the "very slow" mEPHX phenotype being most...
