Abstract
Surprisingly, a correlation was found between cancer risk and selenium and arsenic concentrations in whole blood samples, along with assessment of CAT gene variations. Excessively low and high blood selenium and arsenic concentrations indicate an increased risk of breast cancer among women with a hereditary predisposition to breast cancer, depending on variations in the CAT gene.
