چکیده

BACKGROUND Particulate pollution is associated with the occurrence of asthma and allergy. The model pollutant, diesel exhaust particles, can participate with allergens in starting and exacerbating allergic airway diseases in part by production of reactive oxygen species. Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) can metabolise reactive oxygen species and detoxify xenobiotics present in diesel exhaust particles. We tested the hypothesis that null genotypes for GSTM1 and GSTT1, and GSTP1 codon 105 variants (I105 and V105) are key regulators of the adjuvant effects of diesel exhaust particles on allergic responses. METHODS Patients sensitive to the ragweed allergen were challenged intranasally with allergen alone and with allergen plus diesel exhaust particles in a randomised order at separate visits. Nasal allergen-specific IgE, histamine, interleukin 4, and interferon gamma concentrations were measured before and 24 h after challenge. FINDINGS Individuals with GSTM1 null or the GSTP1 I105 wildtype genotypes showed enhanced nasal allergic responses in the presence of diesel exhaust particles. Compared with patients with a functional GSTM1 genotype, GSTM1 null patients had a significantly larger increase in IgE (median 102.5 U/mL [range 1.0-510.5] vs 45.5 U/mL [1.5-60.6], p=0.03) and histamine (14.0 nmol/L [-0.2-24.7] vs 7.4 nmol/L [1.2-12.3], p=0.02) after diesel exhaust particles plus allergen challenge. The I105 GSTP1 genotype was associated with an increase in IgE (120.3 U/mL [6.7-510.5] vs 27.7 U/mL [-1.5-60.6], p=0.03) and histamine (13.8 nmol/L [3.1-24.7] vs 5.2 nmol/L [-0.2-19.6], p=0.01) after challenge with diesel exhaust particles and allergens. The diesel exhaust particles enhancement was largest in patients with both the GSTM1 null and GSTP1 I/I genotypes. INTERPRETATION GSTM1 and GSTP1 modify the adjuvant effect of diesel exhaust particles on allergic inflammation.

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...

Abstract: Background: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory liver disorder of unknown etiology. The search for gene polymorphisms has suggested that Glutathion-s-transferase (GST), enzymes that metabolize carcinogens, drug, and foreign compounds, may play a role in susceptibility to autoimmune liver disease and its severity. The objective of this study was to investigate for a r...

Genetic polymorphisms of glutathione-s-transferase M1 and T1 genes with risk of diabetic retinopathy in Iranian population

Objective(s):To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the contributions of GST genetic variants to the risk of diabetic retinopathy in an Iranian population. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine whether sequence variation in glutathione S-transferase gene (GSTM1 and GSTT1) is associated with development of diabetic retinopathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D...

GSTM1 and GSTP1 and respiratory health in asthmatic children exposed to ozone.

Acute exposure to ozone has been related to a wide spectrum of health effects in susceptible individuals. Genetic factors may influence interindividual variation in ozone response. The current authors investigated the relationships between common polymorphisms in two genes involved in response to oxidative stress, i.e. glutathione S-transferases M1 (GSTM1) and P1 (GSTP1), and both respiratory s...
