## Abstract Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a DNA repair protein, which plays important roles in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. Genetic variations of __APE1__ have been shown to influence an individual's susceptibility to carcinogenesis. We hypothesized the genetic polymorph
## Abstract To investigate the association between the potentially functional polymorphisms in __IL12A__ and __IL12B__, HBV infection and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in a Chinese population, we genotyped three polymorphisms, rs568408 (3β²UTR G>A), rs2243115 (5β²UTR T>G) in __IL12A__ and rs321222
## Abstract Myeloperoxidase (MPO), an enzyme derived from neutrophils, metabolically activates a wide range of carcinogens, whereas glutathione __S__βtransferase M1 (GSTM1) detoxifies various electrophilic metabolites. A β463GβA polymorphism in the promoter region of the __MPO__ gene diminishes the
