Genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 as a biomarker of susceptibility to environmental toxicity.
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are responsible for the metabolism of numerous xenobiotics and endogenous compounds, including the metabolic activation of most environmental toxic chemicals and carcinogens. Both metabolic and genetic polymorphisms have been identified for human CYP enzymes. The associ...
