Background:Myocardial infarction is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Oxidative stress plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis leading to myocardial infarction and Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) act as detoxifying enzymes to reduce oxidative stress. The aim of the present study was to investigate the associations of the GST (T1 & M1) gene polymorphism with the susceptibility of myocardial infarction in the Bangladeshi population.Methods:A case-control study on 100 cardiac patients with MI and 150 control subjects was conducted. The genotyping of GST (T1 & M1) gene was done using conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction.Results:The percentage of GSTM1 genotypes was significantly (p< 0.01) lower in patients compared to control subjects while the GSTT1 genotypes were not significantly different between the study subjects. The individual with GSTM1 null allele was at 2.5-fold increased risk {odds ratio (OR)= 2.5; 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI)= 1.4 to 4.3; p< 0.01} of experiencing MI while individual with either GSTM1 or GSTT1 genotypes was at lower risk. In the case of GST M1 and GST T1 combined genotype, patients having both null genotypes for GST M1 and GST T1 gene showed significantly (p< 0.01) higher risk of experiencing MI when compared to control subjects (OR= 3.5; 95% CI= 1.7–7.2; p< 0.001). Conclusion:Thus our recent study suggested that GSTM1 alone and GSTM1 and T1 in combination augments the risk of MI in Bangladeshi population.

Cytogenetic study of workers exposed to chromium compounds 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), high SCE frequency cells (HFCs), and genetic polymorphism of genotypes glutathione S-transferase (GST) M1 and T1 were analyzed in peripheral lymphocytes of 35 workers occupationally exposed to chromium (Cr) and 35 matched control group. Results showed that workers exposed to Cr showed 6.07 SCE/cell, as compared to 4.76 SCE/cell for the control group (p<0.01). Smokers showed a statistically significant higher frequency of SCE than non-smokers in both groups. The work duration of Cr workers was an important factor. Workers exposed for more than 5 years showed a significantly higher level of SCEs (p<0.05). Workers exposed to Cr for 5 or more years had higher HFC rates (51.4%) than those exposed for less than 5 years (22.9%), with an odds ratio of 4.5 times than those exposed for less than 5 years. In HFC analysis, Cr workers who smoked showed a higher level of HFC (60%) than the control group (5.7%) and also had a higher odds ratio (60.4) compared with the control group. Among non-smokers, the odds ratio was 9.0. Another objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between SCE and genetic polymorphisms of GST M1 and T1 in Cr workers. The results showed that the incidence of GSTM1 null genotype was 60% in the control group and 77.1% in Cr workers, and percentages of GSTT1 deletion were 42.9% and 62.9% in control and exposed individuals, respectively. There was a slightly increased frequency of SCE among Cr workers with GSTM1 null genotype as opposed to non-null genotype individuals. A similar result was seen among the control group; however, there were no statistically significant differences. In conclusion, the current study found the positive induction of SCE in workers who smoked or/and were exposed to Cr. However, different GST genotypes did not influence the level of cytogenetic damage between groups. Despite slight variation in numbers, they all appear to be not different. 相似文献

Oxidative stress and xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes are suspected to be related to carcinogenesis by different cellular mechanisms. Hence, our study aimed at identifying potential relationships between antioxidant defense parameters measured in blood and glutathione S-transferase (GST) genetic polymorphisms of four GST izoenzymes in lung cancer patients and reference individuals. The case-control study included 404 lung cancer patients and 410 non-cancer subjects as controls, matched by age, gender and place of living (central Poland). In control subjects with GSTM3*A/*A, GSTT1 null, GSTM1 null + GSTT1 null, GSTM3*A/*A + GSTT1 null genotype, glutathione peroxidase activity was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than in controls possessing respective potential protective GST genotypes. Controls with GSTM3*A/*A + GSTP1*B genotype presented significantly higher ceruloplasmin activity (P < 0.05) than GSTM3*B + GSTP1*A/*A carriers. Zinc level was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in controls and cases with GSTP1*B + GSTT1 null genotype and in cases with GSTM1 null + GSTP1*B genotype, when compared with respective potential protective GST genotypes. This case-control study indicates that particular defective GST genotypes may enhance the defense against oxidative stress. The potential relationship between the investigated antioxidative enzymes and microelements, and common functional genetic polymorphism of GST was observed mostly in control subjects. 相似文献

Influence of GSTM1, GSTT1, GSTP1, and EPHX gene polymorphisms on DNA adduct level and HPRT mutant frequency in coke-oven workers 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

To evaluate the influence of individual susceptibility factors on the level of polyaromatic (PAH) hydrocarbon DNA adducts and hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT) mutants in peripheral lymphocytes, 70 coke-oven workers exposed to PAH were genotyped for four metabolic enzyme polymorphisms of potential importance in PAH metabolism. The examined genetic polymorphisms concerned glutathione S-transferases M1 (GSTM1; gene deletion; 96 workers), T1 (GSTT1; gene deletion), P1 (GSTP1; Ile→Val substitution at codon 104 or Ile→Val at codon 104 and Val→Ala at codon 113), and microsomal epoxide hydrolase (EPHX; Tyr→His substitution at codon 113 and His→Arg at codon 139). The workers were classified in a high- and low-exposure group on the basis of urinary concentration of 1-pyrenol. The GSTM1 null genotype increased the number of DNA adducts in smoking coke-oven workers with high PAH exposure. DNA adducts were affected by PAH-exposure in non-smokers and in GSTM1 null smokers and by smoking in GSTM1 null individuals. In a multiple linear regression analysis, the interaction of the GSTM1 genotype was statistically significant (p=0.04) with smoking (yes/no) and of borderline significance (p=0.06) with PAH-exposure (high/low). As smoking also increased urinary 1-pyrenol, the genotype modification seemed to concern DNA adducts due to smoking rather than occupational exposure. GSTT1 positive individuals showed an elevated level of DNA adducts in comparison with GSTT1 null subjects (p=0.04), and EPHX genotypes associated with slow hydroxylation reaction yielded a higher (p=0.05) HPRT mutant frequency than fast EPHX genotypes; these findings were, however, based on small numbers of subjects and need to be clarified in further studies. In conclusion, our findings indicate that homozygous deletion of GSTM1 results in an increased sensitivity to genotoxic PAHs in tobacco smoke, which is seen as an increase in aromatic DNA adducts in blood mononuclear cells. 相似文献

Genetic polymorphisms in genes encoding glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1, a member of class theta) and M1 (GSTM1, a member of class mu) have been defined. Previous studies have revealed that there was significant difference between populations for allelic frequency of several members of GSTs. In order to find the prevalence of null genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 in Afghanis populations the present study was carried out. The total study subjects consisted of 656 unrelated healthy Afghanis refugees living in Fars province (southern Iran). From these 257, 217, 120, and 62 individuals were Pashtuns, Tajiks, Hazaras, and Uzbeks, respectively. Genetic polymorphisms for GSTT1 and GSTM1 were detected by multiplex PCR. The prevalence of null genotype of GSTM1 in Pashtuns, Tajiks, Hazaras, and Uzbeks was 42.4, 48.4, 52.5, and 40.3 %, respectively. There was no significant difference between these populations for the genotypic distribution of the GSTM1 polymorphism (χ(2) = 4.67, df = 3, P = 0.197). The frequency of GSTT1 null genotype in Pashtuns, Tajiks, Hazaras, and Uzbeks was 7.4, 25.3, 25.0, and 29.0 %, respectively. The observed difference between populations for prevalence of GSTT1 null genotype was statistically significant (χ(2) = 35.54, df = 3, P < 0.001). In comparison with European and Asian populations, Afghanistan populations like Iranian populations showed intermediate frequency for GSTT1 and GSTM1 null genotypes. 相似文献

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) M1 and T1 are known to be polymorphic in humans. Both polymorphisms are due to gene deletions which are responsible for the existence of null genotypes. Previous studies have suggested that GST genotypes may play a role in determining susceptibility to a number of unrelated cancers, including lung cancer. The GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms were determined by PCR-based analysis in 75 lung cancer patients and 55 controls. The unconditional logistic regression analysis was used to calculate ORs and 95% CI. The frequencies of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes were 37.3 and 22.7% in lung cancer patients and 27.3 and 16.4% in controls, respectively. When analyzed by histology the GSTM1 null genotype was more prevalent in squamous-cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma patients. Whereas, GSTT1 null genotype frequency was lower in small-cell lung cancer patients than controls. But these differences were not statistically significant. According to smoking status, null genotype for both gene are associated with an increase in risk for lung cancer. Our results suggest that GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms may play a role in the development of lung cancer for some histological subtypes and modifies the risk of smoking-related lung cancer. 相似文献

Tobacco use and environmental air pollution are the established etiological factors in head and neck cancer (HNC) progression. Nevertheless, not all the inhabitants with high usage of tobacco from the same polluted locality are suffering with HNC and this is due to the existence of factors like inter-individual genetic polymorphisms, life time exposure to tobacco and the rate of xenobiotic metabolism enzyme (XME) activity. The present study investigates the polymorphic genotypes of the most important XME, glutathione-S-transferase Mu 1 (GST M1) and Theta 1 (GST T1) as the risk modulator to HNC among tobacco-habituated inhabitants of Saurashtra in Gujarat, a region in western India. A population based case–control study was done in 252 HNC patients and 504 healthy controls. Blood samples were collected from the subjects and investigated for polymorphic genotypes of GST M1 and GST T1. Estimation of the odds of risks was done by logistic regressions. Among the subjects with high usage of tobacco, M1 not null-T1 null genotypes presence was found as risk reducing factor to HNC with 0.334 folds (95 % CI; 0.170–0.659). The presence of M1 null-T1 not null genotypes was found with susceptibility to HNC among the subjects with no habit of tobacco chewing, adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 3.170 (1.128–8.913) and no habit of smoking, AOR of 2.544 (1.094–5.963). The present study reveals the finding of significantly increased risk to HNC by interactions of GST M1 null-GST T1 not null polymorphic genotypes among the subjects with nil or less tobacco usage shed some light for the insights of biomarker application in early detection of HNC. 相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fourth most common cancer worldwide, the main etiological factors being chronic infections with hepatitis B and C viruses. Genetic polymorphic forms of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEPHX) have been associated with risk for various malignancies. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the association of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null genotypes and mEPHX polymorphisms with hepatitis virus-related HCC risk in an Indian population. Three groups of subjects were considered, control (n = 169), chronic viral hepatitis (n = 174), and HCC (n = 63). Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used for this polymorphic study. Genotype distributions between categories were compared using the chi2 test; odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval were calculated to express the relative risk. GSTT1 null genotype was associated with 2.23-fold (p < 0.05) increased risk for HCC development as compared to the control group. However, GSTM1 null genotype was found to have a protective effect when hepatitis patients were considered. In case of mEPHX, R139R imposed a risk factor for HCC with both control (OR = 1.81) and chronic hepatitis-infected (OR = 2.06) subjects. Combination of heterozygous mutant genotypes at mEPHX exons 3 and 4 revealed a twofold risk (nonsignificant) for HCC. Further, combination of GSTM1 and T1 genotypes with either of exon 3 or 4 polymorphism of mEPHX displayed synergistic associations (risk or protective) for HCC development. GST and mEPHX variants share a positive association with viral-related HCC risk in Indian population, although a larger sample size is still required to confirm the results. 相似文献

Simple SummaryChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, both in the airways and blood, and in other organs. Elevated oxidative stress and inflammation have been reported to affect leucocyte telomere length (LTL). We explored the link between GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms, LTL and COPD risk. For GSTM1 and GSTT1, we genotyped 152 COPD patients and 131 non-affected controls, while for TL, we assessed 91 patients and 88 controls. There was a significant difference in GSTM1 null genotype frequency between the patients and controls (0.59 vs. 0.38, p ≤ 0.000), but such was not found for GSTT1 (p = 0.192). COPD patients carrying the GSTM1 null genotype had shorter telomeres compared to those carrying the non-null genotype (15,720 bp vs. 22,442 bp, p = 0.008); and in controls, the opposite occurred (31,354 bp vs. 17,800 bp, p = 0.020). According to our results GSTM1, but not GSTT1, null genotypes might play role in leucocyte telomere shortening, and thus be involved in the pathogenesis of COPD.AbstractChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by chronic inflammation and oxidative stress both in the airways and blood and other organs. Elevated oxidative stress and inflammation have been reported to affect leucocyte telomere length (LTL). Glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymes are a large family of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes that utilize different ROS products. We aimed to explore the link between GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms, LTL and COPD risk. For GSTM1, we genotyped 152 COPD patients and 131 non-affected controls; for GSTT1, we genotyped 149 COPD patients and 130 controls. We were able to assess TL for 91 patients and 88 controls. There was a significant difference in the GSTM1 null genotype frequency between the patients and controls (0.59 vs. 0.38, p ≤ 0.000), but such was not found for GSTT1 (p = 0.192). When combining both polymorphisms, we obtained a significantly greater presence of at least one null genotype among patients (0.12 vs. 0.05, p = 0.027). An association between GSTT1 and LTL was not found. COPD patients carrying the GSTM1 null genotype had shorter telomeres compared to those carrying the non-null genotype (15,720 bp vs. 22,442 bp, p = 0.008); as for the controls, it was the opposite (31,354 bp vs. 17,800 bp, p = 0.020). The significance in both groups remained when combining GSTM1 and GSTT1 (COPD (at least one null) 16,409 bp vs. COPD (non-null) 22,092 bp, p = 0.029; control (at least one null) 29,666 bp vs. control (non-null) 16,370 bp, p = 0.027). The total glutathione level in GSTM1 non-null controls was higher compared to the null genotype (15.39 ng/mL vs. 5.53 ng/mL, p = 0.002). In COPD patients, we found no association (p = 0.301). In conclusion, according to our results, GSTM1, but not GSTT1, null genotypes might play a role in leucocyte telomere shortening, and thus be involved in the pathogenesis of COPD. 相似文献

Background
A number of case-control studies were conducted to investigate the association of glutathione S-transferase (GST) genetic polymorphisms and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk. However, these studies have yielded contradictory results. We therefore performed a meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the association between polymorphisms on GSTM1, GSTT1 and HCC.Methodology/Prinicpal Findings
PubMed, EMBASE, ISI web of science and the CNKI databases were systematically searched to identify relevant studies. Data were abstracted independently by two reviewers. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to assess the strength of association. Potential sources of heterogeneity were also assessed by subgroup analysis and meta-regression. Funnel plots and Egger’s linear regression were used to test publication bias among the articles. A total of 34 studies including 4,463 cases and 6,857 controls were included in this meta-analysis. In a combined analysis, significantly increased HCC risks were found for null genotype of GSTM1 (OR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.06–1.58; P = 0.01) and GSTT1 (OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.22–1.68; P<10−5). Potential sources of heterogeneity were explored by subgroup analysis and meta-regression. Significant results were found in East Asians and Indians when stratified by ethnicity; whereas no significant associations were found among Caucasians and African populations. By pooling data from 12 studies that considered combinations of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null genotypes, a statistically significant increased risk for HCC (OR = 1.88, 95% CI: 1.41–2.50; P<10−4) was detected for individuals with combined deletion mutations in both genes compared with positive genotypes.Conclusions/Significance
This meta-analysis suggests that the GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotype may slightly increase the risk of HCC and that interaction between unfavourable GSTs genotypes may exist. 相似文献12.

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) protects cells against oxidative stress. We evaluated the effect of genetic polymorphisms of the GST gene family on the risk of developing type-2 diabetes mellitus and on glycemic control. We also investigated the effects of smoking combined with these polymorphisms on type-2 diabetes mellitus risk. We enrolled 100 type-2 diabetes mellitus patients and 100 healthy controls matched for age, gender and origin, from the Sinai area of Egypt. Fasting serum glucose, HbA(1c) and lipid profiles were determined. Two polymorphisms were identified by multiplex PCR within the GST genes: GSTM1 and GSTT1. The proportion of the GSTT1- and GSTM1-null genotypes was significantly greater in diabetic patients when compared to controls. Patients carrying both null polymorphisms had a 3.17-fold increased risk of having type-2 diabetes mellitus compared to those with normal genotypes of these two genes (P = 0.009). Additionally, patients with the GSTT1-null genotype had higher levels of triglycerides and very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol compared to those with the GSTT1-present genotype. On the other hand, patients with the GSTM1- null genotype had significantly higher levels of HbA(1c) and significantly higher diastolic blood pressure compared to those with the GSTM1- present genotype. The interaction between these genotypes and smoking status was not significant. These results give evidence that the GSTT1- and GSTM1-null genotypes, alone or combined, are associated with increased risk of type-2 diabetes mellitus, regardless of smoking status. Only the GSTM1-null genotype had an effect on glycemic control. 相似文献

Background & Aims
Quantitative HBsAg has been recognized to assist in the management of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, its role in disease monitoring of HBeAg-negative patients remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the longitudinal HBsAg change in HBeAg-negative carriers with HBV genotype B or C infection.Methods
This is a retrospective cohort study conducted in a university hospital. Treatment-naïve HBeAg-negative carriers followed for more than 3 years were recruited. Their hepatitis activities were categorized by longitudinal HBV-DNA levels into high viral-load (HVL: HBV-DNA >/ = 2000 IU/mL persistently), low viral-load (LVL: HBV-DNA <2000 IU/mL persistently) and fluctuated viral-load (FVL: HBV-DNA between HVL and LVL). The baseline and end-of-follow-up (EOF) HBsAg levels were quantified for analyses.Results
We recruited 187 patients with a median follow-up of 8 years. LVL patients had a significantly lower HBsAg at baseline and EOF and a significantly greater annualized HBsAg decline compared with the FVL and HVL. The longitudinal HBsAg change was independent of genotype B or C. The lower baseline HBsAg level predicted the HBsAg decline and HBsAg loss, whereas the higher baseline HBV-DNA predicted the hepatitis flare. A baseline HBsAg <50 IU/mL predicted subsequent HBsAg loss with a sensitivity of 82% and specificity of 67%. The annualized HBsAg decline appeared non-linear, and accelerated as the HBsAg level lowered (0.054, 0.091, 0.126 log10 IU/mL in patients with baseline HBsAg >1000, 100–999, <100 IU/mL, respectively, P for trend = .014).Conclusions
In genotype B or C HBeAg-negative carriers, baseline HBsAg levels correlate with future disease activities and help to predict HBsAg decline or loss. Inactive carriers with lower baseline HBsAg levels have a greater and accelerating HBsAg decline over time, regardless of HBV genotypes. 相似文献14.
Reduced glutathione (GSH) plays a critical role as an intracellular defense system providing detoxification of a broad spectrum of reactive species and their excretion as water-soluble conjugates. Conjugation of GSH with electrophiles is catalyzed by GSH S-transferases (GST), which constitute a broad family of phase II isoenzymes. Two of the GST encoding genes, GSTM1 (mu) and GSTT1 (theta), have a null genotype due to their homozygous deletion that results in lack of active protein. Polymorphisms within GSTT1 and especially GSTM1 have often been associated with cancer in various organs as well as with elevated levels of DNA adducts in various cell types. We recently demonstrated that DNA adducts are consistently detectable in smooth muscle cells (SMC) of human abdominal aorta affected by atherosclerotic lesions. Here we provide evidence that levels of adducts to SMC DNA from atherosclerotic lesions are consistently increased in individuals having the null GSTM1 genotype, whereas no association was established with the GSTT1 polymorphism. The influence of GSTM1 deletion was better expressed in never-smokers and ex-smokers than in current smokers. These findings bear relevance to the epidemiology of atherosclerosis and suggest that metabolic polymorphisms may contribute to the interindividual variability in susceptibility not only to carcinogens, but also to DNA binding atherogens. 相似文献

Association of genetic polymorphisms in glutathione S-transferases and susceptibility to head and neck cancer 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

Polymorphism in glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes (GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1) and interaction with environmental factors such as tobacco (smoking or chewing) and alcohol on susceptibility to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) was studied in a case-control study. The study group consisted of 175 patients suffering from HNSCC and 200 age matched healthy controls. Statistical analysis showed an increase in risk to HNSCC in the patients with null genotype of GSTM1 (OR: 2.02; 95% CI: 1.32-3.10; P=0.001) or GSTT1 (OR: 1.66; 95% CI: 1.02-2.69; P=0.04), though the risk was not found to be significant when adjusted for age, sex, smoking, tobacco chewing or alcohol use by multivariate logistic regression model. Our data further showed that combination of deletion genotypes of GST (GSTM1 and GSTT1) confer an even higher risk of HNSCC. Interestingly, GSTP1 wild type genotype in combination with GSTM1 null or GSTT1 null genotype increased susceptibility for HNSCC (OR: 2.49 and 2.75, respectively). Likewise a much greater risk for HNSCC was observed in the patients carrying a genotype combination of GSTM1 null, GSTT1 null and GSTP1 (Ile/Ile) (OR: 4.47; 95% CI: 1.62-12.31; P=0.002). Our data have further provided evidence that tobacco chewing and alcohol consumption are the important risk factors for HNSCC. The interaction between tobacco chewing and null genotype of GSTM1 or GSTT1 resulted in about 3.5- and 2.2-fold increase in the risk respectively in the patients when compared to those not chewing tobacco. Alcohol use resulted in more than 4-fold increase in the risk in the patients with null genotype of GSTM1 as compared to those who are non-drinkers. Alcohol consumption also increased the risk (approx. 3-fold) in the cases with null genotype of GSTT1, though the association was not found to be significant when compared to non-drinkers. Our data have provided evidence that GST polymorphism modifies the susceptibility to HNSCC and have further demonstrated importance of gene-environment interaction in modulating the risk to HNSCC. 相似文献

Cigarette smoking is a powerful risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), leading to the formation of DNA alterations within blood vessels and heart. However, the degree of smoking-related atherosclerosis varies from individual to individual. Genetic polymorphisms of relevant xenobiotic metabolising enzymes may determine the susceptibility of an individual response to environmental toxicants. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the inheritance of polymorphic genes encoding cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1 MspI) and glutathione S-transferases (GSTM1(null) and GSTT1(null)) may be causally associated with the presence and severity of smoking-induced CAD. In a case-only design, 222 (179 male, 57.8+/-10.3 years) consecutive smoker patients who had undergone elective and diagnostic coronary angiography were recruited. We found a group (n=169) of smoker patients with significant CAD, defined as>50% reduction in diameter of at least one major vessel, and a group without obstructive CAD (n=53). No significant differences were observed in CYP1A1 genotypes frequencies between CAD and non-CAD smokers (p=0.1). Homozygous deletion of GSTM1 had a frequency of 58.6% among patients with CAD and 45.3% among those without CAD (p=0.08). The frequency of the GSTT1(null) genotype was 43.8% among the patients with CAD and 24.5% among CAD-free subjects (p=0.01). After adjustment for traditional risk factors, the presence of combined GSTM1(null)GSTT1(null) genotypes was significantly associated with an increased risk of CAD (OR=3.9; 95% CI: 1.3-11.4, p=0.01). Moreover, smokers with combined GSTM1(null)GSTT1(null) genotypes had significantly higher number of stenosed vessels than those with the positive genotype (2.3+/-0.9 versus 1.7+/-0.8, p=0.03). Our findings showed that smokers carrying GST deleted genotypes have an increased susceptibility to the smoking related coronary artery disease. Exploring gene-smoking effect provides an excellent model in order to understand gene-environment toxicants interaction and its implications to cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

Safrole-DNA adducts in human peripheral blood--an association with areca quid chewing and CYP2E1 polymorphisms 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
It has been recently demonstrated that safrole (4-allyl-1,2-methylenedioxybenzene)-DNA adducts are present in oral cancer tissue from patients who have chewed areca quid (AQ) containing high concentration of safrole. In this study, the presence of safrole-DNA adducts in peripheral white blood cells from 88 subjects with a known AQ chewing history and 161 matched controls were studied with the aim of identifying the adducts as a biomarker for safrole exposure. This study also analyzed the correlation between the level of safrole-DNA adducts and polymorphism of the CYP2E1 gene, alone and in combination with the GST M1 and GST T1-deletion polymorphisms. The results demonstrated the presence of safrole-DNA adducts in 83 (94.32%) of the DNA samples from subjects with current AQ chewing history and 21 (13.04%) of the control samples without known AQ chewing habit ( [Formula: see text] ). Individuals with at least one CYP2E1 c2 allele had a significant higher frequency of safrole-DNA adducts (odds ratio (OR), 4.00; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.03-15.53) than those with the CYP2E1 c1c1 genotype while chewing less than 20 areca quids per day. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the presence of safrole-DNA adducts in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), and the presence of these safrole-DNA adducts is correlated with AQ chewing. In addition, the CYP2E1 would seem to play an important role in the modulation of safrole-DNA adduct formation. 相似文献

The results from the published studies on the association between glutathione S-transferases (GST) gene polymorphism and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Asian population are still conflicting. GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 are the mainly mutant sites reported at present. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between GST gene polymorphism and HCC risk in Asians. Association studies were identified from the databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and CBM-disc (China Biological Medicine Database) on February 1, 2012, and eligible investigations were synthesized using meta-analysis method. Results were expressed with odds ratios (OR) for dichotomous data, and 95?% confidence intervals (CI) were also calculated. Twenty-five investigations were identified for the analysis of association between polymorphic deletion of GSTM1 and HCC, consisting of 3,547 patients with HCC and 6,132 controls. There was a marked association between GSTM1 null genotype and HCC susceptibility (OR 1.48, 95?% CI 1.19–1.85, P?=?0.0004). GSTM1 null genotype was associated with HCC risk in Chinese. Furthermore, null genotype of GSTT1 was associated with HCC susceptibility in Asians. For the GSTM1–GSTT1 interaction analysis, the dual null genotype of GSTM1/GSTT1 was significantly associated with HCC susceptibility in Asian population. However, GSTP1 ile105?val gene polymorphism was not associated with HCC risk in Asian population. In conclusion, GSTM1/GSTT1 null genotype is associated with the HCC susceptibility. However, GSTP1 gene polymorphism is not associated with HCC risk. 相似文献

Increasing investigations have been conducted on the association between DNA adducts and glutathione S-transferase Mu 1 (GSTM1) null genotype in occupationally exposed population. However, the results were controversial. The objective of the present study was to perform a meta-analysis to better understand the possible association between DNA adduct levels and GSTM1 genotype in occupational exposure population. Among a total of 167 literature searched from frequently-used databases, 7 articles corresponding to the specific criteria were enrolled into the meta-analysis. There was a significant increase of DNA adduct levels in occupationally exposed workers compared with control groups (p = 0.003). Additionally, DNA adduct levels among the carriers of null GSTM1 were significantly higher than those of active GSTM1 carriers in exposure workers (p = 0.017). Egger's test (p = 0.056) and Begg's test (p = 0.368) indicated that there was no evidence of publication bias. In conclusion, workers exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were at high risk to form DNA adducts, and the occupationally exposed workers who carried null GSTM1 were more susceptible to damage from PAHs. 相似文献

In the present study, we investigated whether the polymorphisms of glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) and T1 (GSTT1) genes are risk factors of cataract among Iranian population in a molecular epidemiological way. Blood samples from 150 subjects with cataract (72 male; 78 female) and 150 age- and sex-matched healthy persons were collected. Both patient and control groups were unrelated Iranian Muslims. Using PCR-based method, the genotypes were determined. The null GSTM1 genotype was associated with a 2.38-fold increase in the risk of developing cataract (OR=2.38; 95% CI=1.46-3.89; P = 0.0003). After stratification by sex of subjects, the association was apparent only among women (OR=3.20; 95% CI=1.58-6.52; P = 0.0007). The GSTT1 null genotype was associated with a 1.10-fold increased risk of developing cataract, but this association was not statistically significant. After stratification by sex of subjects, same results were obtained. Female patients with null genotype for GSTM1 and no history of smoking had a 3.45-fold increased cataract risk (P < 0.05), whereas females who were null for GSTM1 and having history of smoking were not at increased risk of cataract. 相似文献
