Abstract

Environment-gene interaction in oral carcinogenesis is well demonstrated by phase I and II enzymes that are involved in the metabolism of carcinogens. This study investigated the association of glutathione S-transferase (GST)T1 and GSTM1 genotypes of phase II enzyme genes with risk for, age of onset, and neck lymph node metastasis (LNM) in areca-associated oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
