Abstract excerpt
Genes for cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) and glutathione S-transferase class mu (GSTM1) have been shown to be polymorphic, and have been implicated in tobacco-related carcinogenesis. In the present study, the role of the combined genotypes CYP1A1 and GSTM1 as a possible modulator of smoking related...
