Abstract excerpt
12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) pathway which produces 12-HETE and hepoxiline HXA3 and HXB3, and induces production of reactive oxygen species and inflammation is increasingly being implicated in variety of cancers, including those of colorectal and thyroid cancers. Hence, we examined whether the functional polymorphism of 12-LOX (mRNA A835G; Protein Gln261Arg) has any association with human colorectal and thyroid...
