Glutathione S-transferase M1 null genotype meta-analysis on gastric cancer risk
BACKGROUND Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) have proved to be involved in the detoxifying several carcinogens and may play an important role in carcinogenesis of cancer. Previous studies on the association between Glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) polymorphism and gastric cancer (GC) risk reported inconclusive results. To get a precise result, we conducted this present meta-analysis through...
متن کاملThe relation between glutathione S-Transferase M1 null-genotype and cardiac problems in beta-thalassemia.
UNLABELLED This work was carried out to investigate the role of Glutathione S-Transferase M1 (GSTM1) null genotype frequency in prognosis of β-thalassemia, and to detect the correlation between GSTM1 null genotype and appearance of cardiac complications in β-thalassemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS The studied groups in the present work were divided to three groups (group I: 20 healthy subjects, gr...
متن کاملThe glutathione S-transferase M1 genotype in ovarian cancer.
Glutathione S-transferase mu-1 (GSTM1) is a polymorphic member of the mu class gene family of the glutathione S-transferases. Individuals who are GSTM1 null have increased susceptibility to lung and colon cancer. We hypothesized that: (a) GSTM1 null individuals might also be at increased risk for development of ovarian cancer; and (b) the GSTM1 genotype would influence response to chemotherapy....
متن کاملThe null genotype of glutathione s-transferase M1 and T1 locus increases the risk for thyroid cancer.
Susceptibility to chemical carcinogens plays an important role in the development of most cancers. Several polymorphisms of human drug-metabolizing enzymes influence this individual susceptibility. The genes that encode the isoenzymes of the glutathione s-transferase (GST) system present a polymorphic inheritance. The GST mu 1 (GSTM1) and GST theta 1 (GSTT1) genes have a null allele variant in ...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferases Null Genotype in Acute Myeloid Leukaemia
Background: The glutathione S-transferase (GST) family of metabolising enzymes plays an important role in the detoxification of mutagens and carcinogens. The expression of many of these cancer susceptibility enzymes is genetically polymorphic. An increased frequency of GST-null genotypes has been associated with several malignancies. Objective: To investigate the rate of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null ge...
