between cytochrome P450 gene polymorphisms and serum organochlorine TEQ levels in the risk of endometriosis
BACKGROUND: Progression of endometriosis is considered estrogen-dependent. Dietary soy isoflavones may affect the risk of endometriosis, and polymorphisms in estrogen receptor genes may modify this association. We examined associations amon…
Exposure to dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been suggested as a possible etiologic factor for endometriosis, but the association remains highly controversial. To assess whether cytochrome P450 (CYP) gene polymorphisms modul…
OBJECTIVE: To explore whether polymorphisms in AhR, ARNT, and AhRR contribute to endometriosis susceptibility and severity. DESIGN: Case control study. SETTING: Hospital. PATIENT(S): One hundred thirty-eight Japanese women with or withou…
There is an increasing awareness of potential links between human health and environmental pollution. Endocrine disrupting compounds(EDCs), such as dioxins, are exogenous chemicals that either imitate endogenous hormones, interfere with pha…
