Interaction between vitamin E intake and a COMT gene variant on colorectal cancer risk among Korean adults: a case-control study

Interaction between vitamin E intake and a COMT gene variant on colorectal cancer risk among Korean adults: a case-control study

OBJECTIVES Previous human trials have not supported the anticarcinogenic effect of vitamin E despite biological plausibility and considerable epidemiological evidence. A possible explanation for this inconsistency is the interactive effect of the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene and suppleme...
