Abstract excerpt
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-DNA adducts may induce mutations that contribute to carcinogenesis. We evaluated potential associations between smoking and polymorphisms in PAH metabolism [CYP1A1 Ile 462Val, CYP1B1 Ala 119Ser and Leu 432Val, microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) Tyr 113His and His139Arg, CYP3A4 A(-392)G] and conjugation [glutathione S-transferase (GST) M1 null deletion, GSTP1 Ile 105Val] genes...
