“…41 Only 1 study investigated before the role of MnSOD polymorphism for the risk of mesothelioma, however the number of patients (20 MPM) was limited and no significant association was found. 42 In this study GSTM1 null allele also appeared to be a risk factor for MPM. This is in agreement with previous findings obtained on a smaller study group from Finland 14 and on a partially overlapping Italian study group.…”

“…The frequencies of TT, CT, CC genotypes were found to be 32.5%, 50.5% and 17.5% in the controls respectively. The frequency distributions of C and T alleles were found to be respec- has the similar CC genotype frequency as seen in AfricanAmerican [35], Finn [36], and Italian populations [37]. We detected considerably lower CC genotype frequency than those found in Korean [38], Japan [39], Chinese [40] and Taiwan [41] populations and higher frequencies than those found in American [23], Polish [42], Danish [43], German [44] and Russian [45] populations.…”

“…Twenty-one studies have investigated the relationship between the SOD2 Ala16Val SNP and other cancers (di Martino et al, 2007;Han et al, 2007;Hirvonen et al, 2002;Ho et al, 2006;Hung et al, 2004;Ichimura et al, 2004;Johnatty et al, 2007;Koistinen et al, 2006;Landi et al, 2007;Li et al, 2002;Lightfoot et al, 2006;Lin et al, 2003;Liu et al, 2004;Mak et al, 2007;Martin et al, 2005;Murphy et al, 2007;Sun et al, 2009;Wang et al, 2004Wang et al, , 2006Young et al, 2006;Zejnilovic et al, 2009). Wang et al (2004) found that individuals with the Val allele had an increased risk of lung cancer if there was low or no asbestos exposure compared to high exposure (OR 2.14, 95% CI 1.52-3.01), although the small number in the high asbestos exposure group limited the validity of the findings.…”

“…Three studies of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease reported no association with the SOD2 genotype (Hirvonen et al, 2002;Mak et al, 2007;Young et al, 2006). The Ala allele is associated with an increased risk of sporadic motor neurone disease, particularly in females (Van Landeghem et al, 1999).…”
