The use of 4-aminobiphenyl hemoglobin adducts and aromatic DNA adducts in lymphocytes of smokers as biomarkers of exposure.

TL;DR: Two biomarkers of exposure to cigarette smoke, 4-aminobiphenyl-hemoglobin (Hb)adducts and aromatic DNA adducts in lymphocytes, were determined from a population of 55 smokers and 4 nonsmokers and found no influence of GSTM1 and NAT2 polymorphisms on Hb adduct formation and of GSTm1 polymorphism on aromatic DNAAdduct formation.
