1 Polymorphisms in P450 CYP1B1 affect the conversion of estradiol to the potentially carcinogenic metabolite 4-hydroxyestradiol. 4-hydroxyestradiol cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
2 Since 4-hydroxyestradiol has been implicated in hormonal carcinogenesis and CYP1B1 is expressed in target tissues, the data presented demonstrate that polymorphisms in CYP1B1 have the potential to affect disease susceptibility. 4-hydroxyestradiol cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
