We examined the association of prenatal smoking and polymorphism with birth size.
Eight genotypes encoding PAH-metabolizing and DNA-repair genes were investigated.
Polymorphisms were analyzed in 3263 healthy pregnant Japanese women.
We observed adverse birth effects with the combination of AHR, CYP1A1 and XRCC1.
Prenatal smoking and AHR/CYP1A1/XRCC1 SNPs are associated with reduced birth size.
