However, no biochemical evidence to date indicates that COMT uses 2-OH-[E. Prior studies showed that people with this deletion lack one copy of the usual two copies of the COMT gene, which triggers production of a protein that breaks down the neurotransmitter dopamine. Dozens of other studies have reported a lower risk of some cancer (like breast, lung, colon, or stomach) in people who eat more of something (like fruits, vegetables, fish, or green tea), but only if they have one version of a gene (with an alphabet soup of names like GST1, COMT, and XRCC1). |
