“…Still our result is affirmed by gene analyses, which indicate that the rare c2 allele is accompanied with a higher mRNA expression (12,13). Increased mRNA expression does not necessarily reflect enzyme activity level, but still evidence was obtained on increased catalytic activity of the enzyme coded by the c2 allele (13,20). Cyp2E1 is involved in the metabolism of many procarcinogens and possesses the ability to reduce molecular oxygen to highly reactive compounds, leading to intensified lipid and protein peroxidation, DNA damage and carcinogenesis (21).…”

“…Striking inter-ethnic differences, complicating analysis, appear with respect to the rare c2 alleles frequency. The rare allele frequencies reported are 24-30% for Asians (15,27,28), 2-3% for Caucasians (20,27), 0.3-7% for Afro-Americans (27,29,30), 15% for Mexican-Americans (29) and 18% for Taiwanese (31).…”

“…Watanabe et al 39 and Hayashi et al 15 reported that the RsaI variant c2 allele produced higher enzyme activity than the c1/c1 genotype in Japanese individuals, although this finding is itself controversial. [40][41][42] Highly activated CYP2E1 induced by alcohol may play a more important role in the metabolic activation of several tobacco-specific procarcinogens, including various nitrosamines. It has been suggested that these low-molecular-weight carcinogens are associated with the development of peripheral adenocarcinoma.…”

“…Some of the previous studies have shown findings on CYP2E1 polymorphism associations with CYP2E1 activities and HCC risk (Hayashi et al, 1991;Ladero et al, 1996;Lucas et al, 1995;Marchand et al, 1999;Watanabe et al, 1994;Yu et al, 1995). However, other previous studies have reported that there was no association between CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms and CYP2E1 activities (Carriere et al, 1996;Inoue et al, 2000;Powell et al, 1998). In other words, including the findings of this study, the literature have shown contradictory findings on associations of CYP2E1 polymorphisms with CYP2E1 activities and HCC risk, especially rs3813867 polymorphism which is in absolute linkage disequilibrium (LD) (|D'|=1 and r 2 =1) with RsaI polymorphism (CYP2E1*5B) (rs2031920), which is associated with higher transcription, increased enzyme activity, and alcoholic liver disease (Grove et al, 1998;Hayashi et al, 1991;Piao et al, 2003;Tanaka et al, 1997;Tsutsumi et al, 1994).…”
