Abstract

The relationship between genetically determined polymorphic hepatic oxidation and susceptibility to neoplastic diseases have aroused much interest. Some studies provide evidence of a possible association between oxidation phenotype, especially extensive and very extensive phenotype, and increased risk of the development of cancers. This work presents modern views on that subject.
