Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP), a polymorphic carcinogen-activating enzyme, is exaggerated following Helicobacter pylori infection. We studied the role of CYP2E1, CYP1A2 (rs762551), and CYP1A1 (rs4646903) polymorphisms in association with H. pylori infection in gastric carcinogenesis. METHODS: Genotyping of CYP2E1 (96-bp insertion), CYP1A2 (164A to C), and CYP1A1 (3801C to T) was carried out in 88,...
