Abstract

Hepatocellualr carcinoma is one of the most malignancy, and the pathogenesis has not been clarified yet. The individual variation in the capacity of xenobiotic metabolizing and DNA repair was the genetic susceptibility to malignancies. Studies on polymorphisms of metabolic enzymes (CYP, NAT, GST, EH, ALDH) and DNA repair genes (XRCC1,hOGG1,XPD), and susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma are reviewed in this paper.
