  • Title: [The problem of genetic-biochemical basis of individual sensitivity in occupational medicine].
    Author: Tarasova LA, Kuz'mina LP, Kasparov AA.
    Journal: Med Tr Prom Ekol; 1998; (4):1-4. PubMed ID: 9613082.
    Abstract:
    Human sensitivity to various factors of occupational environment (toxic chemicals, aerosols with mostly fibrogenic effects, etc.) depends on individual hereditary features determining adaptation or dysadaptation with subsequent disease. Studies of propensity and resistance in individuals exposed to occupational hazards should cover analysis of genetic basis for polymorphism in certain biochemical systems determining relationships between hazards detoxication and activation, DNA alteration and repair.
