A mutation associated with a higher incidence of lung cancer in Japanese women who do not smoke, but better survival in lung cancer patients was identified by Japanese researchers. In a study published today in the journal iPLOS ONE/i, the team from the RIKEN Center for Life Science Technologies shows that a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in a gene that protects cells from oxidative stress is found four times more frequently in women than in men.
