Cigarette smoking and glutathione S-transferase M1 polymorphism associated with risk for uterine cervical cancer
Aim: To elucidate the role of tobacco smoking and polymorphisms of carcinogen metabolism genes in cervical carcinogenesis. Methods: We analyzed genotypes of nine genes, 11 polymorphisms encoding carcinogen metabolizing enzymes, information on smoking, and the presence of human papillomavirus in 12...

Zusammenfassung: | Aim: To elucidate the role of tobacco smoking and polymorphisms of carcinogen metabolism genes in cervical carcinogenesis.
Methods: We analyzed genotypes of nine genes, 11 polymorphisms encoding carcinogen metabolizing enzymes, information on smoking, and the presence of human papillomavirus in 124 Japanese cervical cancer patients and 125 healthy controls.
Results: The incidence of human papillomavirus infection (95.5% vs 9.9%; P |
