## Abstract Polymorphisms in phase I and phase II enzymes may enhance the occurrence of mutations at critical tumor suppressor genes, such as __p53__, and increase breast cancer risk by either increasing the activation or detoxification of carcinogens and/or endogenous estrogens. We analyzed polymo

Validated markers are needed to identify operable lung cancer patients with poor prognosis. About one-half of nonsmall-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) carry a mutation in the p53 tumor-suppressor gene. We examined 101 NSCLC patients for surgical stage, completeness of resection, tobacco smoking, asbestos
Phenacetin abuse and smoking are established risk factors for transitional cell carcinomas of the urinary tract. In the present study, we analysed exposure and the clinical course of patients who underwent nephrectomy for transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis. PCR-SSCP of archival, paraffi
