Genetics and Cancer Susceptibility: Implications for Risk Assessment : Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Carcinogenesis and Risk Assessment, ... in Clinical and Biological Research)
Recent advances in molecular genetics have provided new information facilitating identification of human subpopulations at increased risk for cancer development. This volume reviews the impact of both intrinsic genetic factors and extrinsic modifiers on human cancer risk. Emphasis is on susceptibility factors that are targets for chemical carcinogens, on intrinsic factors that modify cancer risk and on biomonitoring and extrinsic risk modification
