In addition, lactoperoxidase may activate carcinogenic aromatic and heterocyclic amines and increase binding levels of activated products to DNA, which suggests a potential role of lactoperoxidase-catalyzed activation of carcinogens in the causation of breast cancer.
Ademais, a lactoperoxidase pode activar aminas heterocíclicas e aromáticas carcinóxenas e incrementar os niveis de unión ao ADN de produtos activados, o cal suxire un papel potencial desta activación catalizada pola lactoperoxidase de carcinóxenos na causa do cancro de mama.
