Abstract excerpt
Polymorphism of the gene encoding for debrisoquine hydroxylase, i.e. CYP2D6, was determined genotypically for 122 healthy controls and 106 lung cancer patients using Xba I restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis, together with a combination of two recently published polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based approaches. Three different mutated alleles of the CYP2D6 gene were detected; CYP2D6B...
