Phenotype and allele frequencies for erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPX1) polymorphism are reported in the Mbugu and Sango (Central African Republic), Goun (Benin), and Bamileke (Cameroon) ethnic groups. The GPX1\*2 allele frequencies (from 0.012 in the Sango to 0.058 in the Bamileke) fit into

Reactive oxygen species formation is strongly suspected to play a role in multistep carcinogenesis, notably in tumor promotion. The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induces peroxide production, oxidative damage to DNA and inflammation in mouse skin. TPA is also known to caus
