Polymorphism in heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) promoter is related to the risk of oral squamous cell carcinoma occurring on male areca chewers

Areca (betel) chewing is associated with the high incidence of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) in Asians. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), encoding an oxidative response protein, plays protective roles in cells. A (GT)(n) microsatellite repeat in HO-1 promoter shows pol...
