## 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
## Abstract Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), which is prevalent in China, is believed to be induced by environmental carcinogens. Accumulating evidence has shown that individual variation in DNA repair capacity resulting from genetic polymorphism influences risk of environmental carcinoge
