A meta-analysis of the association of N-acetyltransferase 2 gene (NAT2) variants with breast cancer.

American journal of epidemiology - 1 Aug 2007

Ochs-Balcom Heather M, Wiesner Georgia, Elston Robert C

Abstract excerpt

The N-acetyltransferase 2 gene (NAT2) product is an enzyme important in carcinogen metabolism via activation and detoxification pathways. Therefore, NAT2 variants may represent underlying susceptibility to breast cancer. Because a number of studies of the association of NAT2 with breast cancer have been published, the authors performed a meta-analysis. They extracted all relevant data to examine evidence for a...
