1 Influence of GSTM1 genotypes on anti-BPDE-DNA adduct levels in mononuclear white blood cells of humans exposed to PAH. 7,8-Dihydro-7,8-dihydroxybenzo(a)pyrene 9,10-oxide phenylalanine hydroxylase Homo sapiens
2 In coke-oven workers, chimney sweeps, and aluminum workers, respectively, the multiplicative effect of the null genotype with occupational PAH exposure gives risks of 162 (= 27.2 x 5.94), 10 (= 1.70 x 5.94), and 3 (= 0.50 x 5.94) times higher probability (risk) of high BPDE-DNA adduct formation than that of non-exposed subjects with the active GSTM1 genotype. 7,8-Dihydro-7,8-dihydroxybenzo(a)pyrene 9,10-oxide phenylalanine hydroxylase Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSION: Our results indicate a greater risk of anti-BPDE-DNA adduct formation resulting from occupational high-level PAH-exposure in GSTM1 null (GSTM1 *0/*0) workers. 7,8-Dihydro-7,8-dihydroxybenzo(a)pyrene 9,10-oxide phenylalanine hydroxylase Homo sapiens
