Genetic Polymorphism of the Glutathione S-Transferase M1 and Development of Breast Cancer

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are encoded by a superfamily of genes and play a role in the detoxification of potential carcinogens. The human GSTs are divided into four classes: alpha, mu, pi and theta. Previous studies indicated that the absence of the Glutathione S-Transferase M1 (GSTM1) protein correlated with an increased risk of developing some types of cancers. Association between spe...

Investigating 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...

Glutathione S-transferase M1 polymorphism and bladder cancer risk: a meta-analysis involving 33 studies.

Glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) might be involved in inactivation of procarcinogens that contribute to the genesis and progression of cancers. GSTM1 null status has been extensively studied as a risk factor in bladder cancer susceptibility. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of GSTM1 null genotype in bladder cancer risk. All available studies were considered in this meta-analysi...

Glutathione S-Transferase M1 Gene Polymorphism and Laryngeal Cancer Risk: A Meta-Analysis

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Studies investigating the association between glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) gene polymorphism and laryngeal cancer risk have reported conflicting results. The aim of the present study was to conduct a meta-analysis assessing the possible associations of GSTM1 gene polymorphism with laryngeal cancer risk. METHODS The relevant studies were identified through a s...

Glutathione S Transferase M1 Polymorphism in Extrahepatic Biliary Atresia

Background: Extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) is a chronic progressive obstructive cholangiopathy of infancy of unknown aetiology. Pathology of bile duct damage involves unanimously neutrophil elastase, variable degrees of fibrosis, and variable CD14+ monocytes intensity staining in the presence of defective p53 and glutathione S transferases Pi class (GST Pi). GST is a super family responsib...
