Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT2) is a polymorphic enzyme involved in deactivation and activation of carcinogens through N- and O-acetylation. We investigated the association between the genetic NAT2 polymorphism and brain tumors by analysis of genomic DNA from 71 brain tumor patients and 258 healthy controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms of the NAT2 gene were...
