ABSTRACT: Background and objective
There are inconsistent data of the cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) Ile462Val (rs1048943) single nuclear polymorphism (SNP) as a genetic susceptibility factor for cervical cancer in various populations. Moreover, little is known about the interaction of this SNP with other risk factors, including contraceptive use, postmenopausal status, parity, and tobacco smoking.Methods
Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to study the prevalence of the CYP1A1 Ile462Val SNP in women with cervical cancer (n = 456) and controls (n = 495).Results
Logistic regression analysis adjusting for age, parity, oral contraceptive use, tobacco smoking, and menopausal status demonstrated that that the CYP1A1 Ile/Val polymorphism was no
