بررسی همزمان پلی مورفیسم های ژنهای,GSTM11GSTT و ارتباط آنها با مقاومت نسبت به داروهای شیمیدرمانی در بیماران مبتلابه سرطان مری
Background: Genetic polymorphisms in enzymes involved in carcinogen metabolism have been shown to influence susceptibility to cancer. The glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes are involved in the detoxification of a broad range of toxic substances, so polymorphic deletions of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes may involve as a risk factor for esophagus carcinoma. The aim of this research was to investigate ...
متن کاملStudy of the association FokI polymorphisms of the XRCC3 gene with the risk of breast cancer in women: brief report
Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common worldwide malignancies among women. Biological data suggest that damage induced by endogenous and exogenous factors affects the integrity of DNA and associated with susceptibility to breast cancer. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA repair genes can associated with differences in the repair efficiency of DNA damage and may affect br...
متن کاملNo association between GSTM1 and GSTT1 genetic polymorphisms and susceptibility to opium sap dependence
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs; EC: 2.5.1.18) are a ubiquitous family of eukaryotic and prokaryotic phase II metabolic isozymes. Genes encoding GSTM1 (OMIM: 138350), and GSTT1 (OMIM: 600436) are members of class mu and theta, respectively. The most common polymorphism in the GSTM1 is a deletion of the whole GSTM1 gene with a lack of enzyme activity. A homozygous deletion in the GSTT1 has also...
متن کاملAssociation between Polymorphisms of X-ray Repair Cross Complementing 5 and 6 Promoter Genes and the Risk of Metastatic Breast Cancer
Background and Objective: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Better individualized treatment needs novel prognostic predictors. X-ray repair cross complementing XRCC5 and XRCC6 are coding genes of the Ku protein complex (key components of the non-homologous end-joining [NHEJ] pathway), which could serve as prognostic factors in breast cancer. Hence, in t...
متن کاملAssociation between two functional polymorphisms in the MMP-2 promoter and lung cancer incidence in Asian population: a meta-analysis study
Background: Numerous experiments have been performed to determine the relationship between the Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) -1306C/T and -735C/T polymorphisms and the prevalence and progression of lung cancer in diverse populations. However, due to the small sample size and the different results of previous studies, we decided to perform a general meta-analysis on all previous studies abo...
متن کاملAssociation between GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms and susceptibility to methamphetamine dependence
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs; EC: 2.5.1.18) are ubiquitous multifunctional enzymes, which play a key role in cellular detoxification. Functional genetic polymorphisms in genes encoding GSTM1 (a member of GST class mu; OMIM: 138350), and GSTT1 (a member of GST class theta; OMIM: 600436) have been well defined. The functional null alleles of GSTM1 and GSTT1 represent deletions of GSTM1 and GS...
