Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Kashmir Valley has elevated incidence rate of gastric cancer (GC) and several environmental, host genetic factors have been suspected for it. Xenobiotic carcinogen exposure and interindividual differences in its cellular metabolism may modulate susceptibility to GC. AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of this study is to investigate the role of genetic variants of xenobiotic-metabolizing genes with...
