The pathogenesis of gastric cancer (GC), particularly of the intestinal type, is thought to involve a multistep and multifactorial process. Our objective was to determine the rates of transition from early to advanced gastric lesions in a population in Linqu County, China, where the GC rates are amo
Excessive incidence of various cancers is a challenging feature of the hereditary-non-polyposis-colorectal-cancer (HNPCC) syndrome. This study estimated the cancer incidences in HNPCC compared with the general population. Individuals in a cohort of 1763 members of 50 genetically diagnosed families w
Cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) plays an important role in the oxidation of nicotine and in the activation of tobaccorelated carcinogens, such as N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosodiethylamine and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone. It has been suggested that individuals with defective CYP2A
