Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms underlying how arsenic methylation capacity affects bladder cancer (BC) are still unclear. The objective of this study was to explore the effects of polymorphisms of arsenic (+3 oxidation state) methyltransferase (AS3MT) on BC risk. We conducted a hospital-based study and enrolled 216 BC and 648 healthy controls from 2007 to 2011. Urinary arsenic profiles were measured using high-performance liquid...
