Glutathione S-Transferase Polymorphisms and Clinical Characteristics in Autism Spectrum Disorders

Glutathione s-transferase M1 and T1 genetic polymorphisms in Iranian patients with glaucoma

Objective(s):Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness and it is related to oxidative stress based on numerous studies. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are members of multigenic family, which have important role in cells as an antioxidant. In the present study, we examined the polymorphism of GSTT1 and GSTM1 deletion genotypes (T0M1, T1M0, and T0M0) in 100 Glaucoma patients (41with pr...

A clinical trial of glutathione supplementation in autism spectrum disorders

BACKGROUND Recent evidence shows that subjects diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have significantly lower levels of glutathione than typically developing children. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of two commonly used glutathione supplements in subjects diagnosed with an ASD to determine their efficacy in increasing blood glutathione levels in subjects diagnosed w...

Association 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 ...

Genetic Polymorphisms of Glutathione S-Transferase mu1 (GSTM1) and Theta1(GSTT1) and Bronchial Asthma Susceptibility in Ukrainian Population

Glutathione S-transferase polymorphisms and bone tumor risk in China.

AIM We aimed to study the potential role of GSTM1 and GSTT1 in the risk of osteosarcoma in Chinese population. METHODS We collected 110 osteosarcomas by pathologic examination and 226 controls from the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University during December 2008 to December 2010. Genotyping was based upon duplex polymerase-chain-reaction with the PCR-CTPP method. RESULTS Indi...
