Genetic polymorphisms of CYP2E1 and GSTM1 in a Thai population.

چکیده
Cytochrome P450 2E1 and GSTM1 play major roles in metabolic activation and detoxification of many carcinogens and polymorphisms in the encoding genes have been reported to be individually associated with increased susceptibility to certain cancer. In the present study, we investigated the RsaI, PstI and DraI polymorphisms of the CYP2E1 gene and the null GSTM1 genotype in a Thai population. DNA samples from 485 individuals were analysed by polymerase chain reaction with restriction fragment length (PCR/RFLP). The frequency of RsaI and PstI predominant homozygous alleles (c1/c1) was 73.2%, heterozygous allele (c1/c2) was 25.6% and rare homozygous allele (c2/c2) was 1.2%. For the DraI polymorphism, the frequency of the predominant allele (DD) was 59.6%, heterozygous (CD) was 40% and rare allele (CC) was 0.4%. The frequency of GSTM1 null genotype was 62.7%. The distribution and frequencies of these alleles showed different pattern from those found in Caucasian and some other Asian populations. With the large population in this study, we believed that our results are reliable estimates of the frequencies of the polymorphic CYP2E1 and GSTM1 alleles in Thai population and should provide a base for further epidemiological studies on their links with cancer development.

GSTT1, GSTM1 and CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms in gastric cancer and chronic gastritis in a Brazilian population.
AIM To test the hypothesis that, in the Southeastern Brazilian population, the GSTT1, GSTM1 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms and putative risk factors are associated with an increased risk for gastric cancer. METHODS We conducted a study on 100 cases of gastric cancer (GC), 100 cases of chronic gastritis (CG), and 150 controls (C). Deletion of the GSTT1 and GSTM1 genes was assessed by multiplex PCR. ...

Polymorphisms in the CYP2E1 and GSTM1 Genes as Possible Protection Factors for Leprosy Patients
BACKGROUND The CYP2E1 and GSTM1 genes encode metabolic enzymes that have key functions in drug modification and elimination. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We investigated the possible effects of CYP2E1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms in 71 leprosy patients and in 110 individuals from the general population. The GSTM1*0 null allele and INDEL CYP2E1*1D mutant genotypes were analyzed by conventional PC...

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...

This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of genetic polymorphisms of the cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) and 2E1 (CYP2E1), and glutathione S-transferases mu (GSTM1) and theta (GSTT1) on urinary 1-hydroxypyrene and 2-naphthol levels, and to estimate the level of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in aircraft maintenance workers. In 218 Korean aircraft maintenance worker...
