Acetylation genotype and the genetic susceptibility to prostate cancer in a southern European population.

The Prostate - 1 Aug 2005

Costa Sandra, Pinto Daniela, Morais Antonio, Vasconcelos André, Oliveira Jorge, Lopes Carlos, Medeiros Rui

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Epidemiologic studies have suggested that environmental factors and diet are important risk factors in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer. The N-acetyltransferases (NAT) are important enzymes in activation and inactivation of various carcinogens, including those found in well-cooked meat and cigarette smoke. METHODS: We analyzed DNA samples from 146 prostate cancer patients and 174 healthy men. We...
