## Abstract A high fat intake has been associated with prostate cancer risk, and gene polymorphisms of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) play an important role in plasma lipoprotein metabolism. We herein analyzed the association of __LPL__ gene polymorphisms with the risk of prostate cancer in a Japanese po
CYP17 encodes the enzyme cytochrome P-450c17โฃ, which mediates both 17โฃ-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase in the steroid biosynthesis pathway. A polymorphism in the 5 promoter region of the CYP17 gene has been described. Steroid hormones, especially androgens, are believed to play a key role in the etiolog
In order to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotype frequencies of CYP3A5 in a Japanese population, we sequenced the proximal promoter region, all exons, and the surrounding intronic regions using genomic DNA from 187 Japanese subjects. Thirteen SNPs, including seven novel ones
