Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: NAD (P) H: quinone oxidoreductase (1) (NQO1-HGNC: 2874) and myeloperoxidase (MPO-HGNC: 7218) are two enzymes involved in phase II of the xenobiotic metabolism pathway. METHODS: In this study, a case-control analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between genetic variations in the NQO1 (C609T, rs1800566; IVS1-27 C >G, rs689452) and MPO (G463A, rs2333227) genes and the risk for bladder...
