ABSTRACT
The association between polymorphism in both DNA repair and xenobiotic metabolism genes and cancer
risk has been reported by many authors. Recent studies have revealed the genetic heterogeneity of various
populations. Therefore, the aim of our study was to evaluate the frequency of selected polymorphisms/mutations
in 17 minor susceptibility genes and to analyze the pattern of their distribution in a group of 146 healthy,
young Polish individuals.The results of our study show that the distribution of studied polymorphisms displayed
a distinct pattern.
