Structure of human glutathione S-transferase class Mu genes.
Nucleotide sequencing of a human cosmid clone shows that the exon-intron structures of a glutathione S-transferase multigene family are conserved between man and rat, that the human gene family is clustered and that gene conversion events have occurred within the cluster. In addition, between man and rat, there is a high degree of nucleotide sequence identity not only in exons but also in some ...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase and drug resistance.
GST isozymes are an important part of the normal cellular defense against toxic xenobiotics and carcinogens. These multifunctional proteins can interact with a broad range of substrates in a variety of ways. In particular, GSTs have been implicated in the detoxication of many antineoplastic agents. Elevated levels of certain GST isozymes have been associated with malignant transformation and wi...
متن کاملGlutathione-S-transferase variants and adult glioma.
INTRODUCTION Conflicting findings have been reported for associations of primary brain tumors and constitutive polymorphisms in glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs). METHODS We genotyped population-based cases ascertained through rapid case ascertainment and controls identified through random-digit dialing in the San Francisco Bay Area between 1991-1994 (series 1) and 1997-2000 (series 2) for ho...
متن کاملProstate cancer and glutathione S-transferase deletions
GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms have been studied in many populations to evaluate their association with prostate cancer risk with contrasting results. The current study was aimed to find out the association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms with prostate cancer in Pakistani men. This case control study included pathologically confirmed prostate cancer patients and age matched male contr...
متن کاملEstrogen receptor 1, glutathione S-transferase P1, glutathione S-transferase M1, and glutathione S-transferase T1 genes with dysmenorrhea in Korean female adolescents.
BACKGROUND Dysmenorrhea is the most common gynecologic complaint among adolescent females. We investigated the association between genetic polymorphisms and dysmenorrhea. METHODS A total of 202 postmenarcheal Korean female adolescents 16-17 yr old participated in this study. Genotyping for glutathione S-transferase mu 1 (GSTM1), glutathione S-transferase theta 1 (GSTT1), glutathione S-transfe...
