TY - JOUR ID - 24569 TI - NAT2 and CYP1A2 Polymorphisms and Lung Cancer Risk in Relation to Smoking Status JO - Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention JA - APJCP LA - en SN - 1513-7368 Y1 - 2007 PY - 2007 VL - 8 IS - 1 SP - 103 EP - 108 KW - Genetic polymorphism KW - NAT2 KW - CYP1A2 KW - Lung cancer KW - smoking DO - N2 - We investigated the associations between lung cancer and the gene polymorphisms of the drug metabolizingenzymes, containing cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1), cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2), glutathione S-transferaseclass mu (GSTM1), and N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2). The study involved 113 lung cancer patients and 121 noncancercontrols divided into never, light and heavy smokers according to pack-years of smoking in Japanese byusing PCR-RFLP. For light smokers, the lung cancer risk of NAT2 intermediate-slow was significantly increased[the adjusted odds ratio (OR): 10.9, 95% confidence intervals (95%CI): 1.75-67.5, P-value: 0.010]. Moreover,never smokers having joint genotypes of NAT2 intermediate-slow and CYP1A2*1F A/A was also associated withincreased the lung cancer risk (OR: 4.95, 95% CI: 1.19-20.6, P-value: 0.028). We suggested that light smokerswith intermediate-slow NAT2 activity were at highest risk for lung cancer and the gene-gene interaction based onintermediate-slow NAT2 activity and high CYP1A2 activity would be increased a lung cancer risk among neversmokers.
