Association between Glutathione S-Transferase T1, M1, and P1 Genotypes and the Risk of Colorectal Cancer
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are enzymes which play an important role in the neutralization of toxic compounds and eradication of electrophilic carcinogens. Genetic polymorphisms within the genes encoding for GSTs may therefore cause variations in their enzyme activity, which may in turn influence the interindividual susceptibility to cancers. In this study, we aimed to investigate the ass...
متن کاملRelationship between the Glutathione-S-Transferase P1, M1, and T1 Genotypes and Prostate Cancer Risk in Korean Subjects
PURPOSE The glutathione-S-transferase (GST)P1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 genotypes have been associated with an increased risk of prostate, bladder, and lung cancers. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the GSTP1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 genotypes and the risk of prostate cancer in Korean men. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study group consisted of 166 patients with histologically con...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase M1, T1, and P1 polymorphisms and survival among lung cancer patients.
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymes detoxify therapeutic drugs and reactive oxidants, so GST polymorphisms may influence survival after diagnosis of cancer. We evaluated survival according to GST polymorphisms in a population-based series of lung cancer patients. The study subjects (n = 274) were men diagnosed with lung cancer from 1993 through 1996 who participated in a case control study ...
متن کاملLarynx cancer risk in relation to glutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 genotypes and tobacco smoking.
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) isoenzymes are involved in the detoxification of several tobacco smoke-derived carcinogens. It is thus conceivable that deficiency in GST activity due to homozygous deletion of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes (the null genotypes) may modulate susceptibility to smoking-induced cancers. The effects of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes on laryngeal cancer risk were evalu...
متن کاملInvestigating the rate of glutathione S-transferase T1 and M1 genes deletion in patients with lung cancer
Introduction: Glutathione S-tarnsferases (GST) gene family is one of the enzymes which is responsible for detoxifying mutagens and Carcinogens chemicals. People with null genotype of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes are at higher risk of developing cancer, especially those who are related to smoking. The goal of this study was investigating the rate of glutathione S-transferase T1 and M1 genes deletion an...
