Abstract excerpt
In this study, we analyzed the influence of CYP1A2 genetic variation and enzyme activity on lung cancer risk in a high-incidence area. A total of 95 lung cancer patients and 196 controls were genotyped for the -3860G/A, -3113A/G, -2467T/delT, -739T/G, and -163C/A polymorphisms in the 5'-untranslated region of the gene. In addition, a subset of 70 patients and 115 controls were phenotyped by high-performance...
