Abstract excerpt
Production of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been banned since 2001 but health risks from exposure persist. PCBs are metabolized by cytochrome P450 enzymes, including CYP2B6. However, the link between CYP2B6 gene polymorphisms and PCB metabolisms is poorly characterized. This study investigated the relationships among serum levels of major indicator PCBs and hydroxylated PCBs (OH-PCBs), which are PCB...
