Previous research has suggested that demand for genetic testing for breast cancer susceptibility may be quite high, even among those at relatively low risk of carrying a mutation. This study examined the extent to which a group of female HMO enrollees were aware of the discovery of the BRCA1 gene an
Genetic differences in the metabolism of carcinogens may codetermine individual predisposition to cancer. Cytochrome P-4501A1 (CYP1A1) metabolically activates precarcinogens in cigarette smoke, such as benzo(a)pyrene, which is also an inducer of CYP1A1. Two point mutations have been reported, ml in
