Abstract excerpt

Nitrosamine has been identified as a carcinogen for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Here, we investigated if a nitrosamine metabolizing gene, cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) played an important role in NPC development. Relationships between the disease and the CYP2A6 were studied in 74 NPC patients and 137 age-matched healthy controls by using PCR-RFLP assay to distinguish between a wide type allele, *1A, and two...
