Increased risk of lung cancer in Japanese smokers with class mu glutathione S-transferase gene deficiency.

Cancer letters - 30 Jul 1993

Kihara M, Kihara M, Noda K, Okamoto N

Abstract excerpt

Japanese lung cancer patients (n = 121) and community controls (n = 201), both with current smoking history and aged < or = 69, were compared for the rates of class mu glutathione S-transferase (GSTmu) negative genotype detected by polymerase chain reaction. The prevalence of the GSTmu negative genotype was 45.3% in the community control group and 68.4%, 69.2%, 54.3% and 72.7% in the squamous cell carcinoma,...
