Abstractdc.description.abstractMany investigators have reported an association between genetic polymorphisms of cytochromes P-450 CYP2E1, CYP1A1 or glutathione S-transferase Mu (GSTM1) and susceptibility to lung cancer. However, pronounced interethnic variations have been described in the frequencies of these polymorphisms, especially between Asians and Caucasians. The present study was set up to establish CYP2E1 (c1, c2 and C, D), CYP1A1 (m1, m2 and Ile, Val) and GSTM1 (null) allelic frequencies in Chileans (n 96) who are an admixture of Native Americans and Caucasians (Spaniards). The rare allele frequencies were found to be 0.15 (c2), 0.21 (C), 0.23 (m2), 0.32 (Val) and 0.21 ('null' genotype). These values are signi®cantly higher than those of Caucasians except for the GSTM1 'null' genotype and suggest differences in susceptibility to lung cancer between both populations. q1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
