Glutathione S-transferase M1 polymorphism and metabolism of sulforaphane from standard and high-glucosinolate broccoli.
BACKGROUND Broccoli consumption is associated with a reduction in the risk of cancer, particularly in persons with a functional glutathione S-transferase M1 allele, as opposed rotrose whose GSTM1 gene has been deleted. Sulforaphane, the major isothiocyanate derived from 4-methylsulfinylbutyl glucosinolate, is thought to be the main agent conferring protection. OBJECTIVE We compared sulforapha...
متن کاملGenetic 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...
متن کاملGlutathione 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...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase M1 gene polymorphism in Thai nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a serious health problem in Thailand. It is caused by the combined effects of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), carcinogens and genetic susceptibility. The glutathione S-transferase M1 gene (GSTM1) encodes a phase II enzyme responsible for detoxifying carcinogenic electrophiles. Polymorphic null forms of the gene GSTM1 lack enzyme activity and have been associated with...
متن کاملAssociation of glutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 polymorphisms and temperament
Mizaj (Temperament) is one of the basic concepts of Iranian Traditional Medicine (ITM), which has great importance in diagnosis and treatment of diseases, as well as maintaining the ideal healthy state of an individual. However, very little is known about the biological mechanisms of mizaj dependence treatment in practical ITM. This study was aimed to evaluate any association between the mizaj ...
