Genetic polymorphism of carcinogen metabolic enzymes in oral submucous fibrosis
Background: Biotransformation plays a crucial role in carcinogen activity. Genetic polymorphisms in xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes crucial to a carcinogen and drug metabolism lead to variations in their activity. These enzymes increase cancer risk by an

GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 Polymorphisms in the Korean Population [PDF]
The isoenzymes of the glutathione s transferase (GST) family play a vital role in phase II of biotransformation of many substances. Using a multiplex polymerase chain reaction and a direct sequencing analysis, the frequencies of GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 polymorphisms were evaluated in 1,051 Korean male subjects.

Gstm1 Null Polymorphism and Palmar Dermatoglypics in Oral Leukoplakia
Background: An individual's risk towards development of cancer depends not only on environmental factors or extrinsic exposure to carcinogens but also on individual's genetic susceptibility. Aim: To determine two genetically ...

The CYP1A1 and GSTM1 Genetic Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Endometriosis in Women from South India [PDF]
Background Endometriosis is one of the most commonly encountered benign problems in gynaecology. It is frequently associated with chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhoea, menorrhagia and dyspareunia, which lead to infertility.

CYP1A1 and GSTM1 genes associated with the risk of developing colorectal cancer: a case-control study in the Lima region of Peru [PDF]
The presence of CYP1A1 allelic variants and deletion of the glutathione S-transferase GSTM1 gene, and their imbalance, have been suggested as risk factors for inducing colorectal cancer (CRCa).

GSTM1 polymorphism in patients with clinical manifestations of atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is characterized by lesions, called atheroma or atheromatous plaques, in the inner layer of blood vessels, which block the vascular lumen and weaken the underlying tunica media. Several modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for the development of atherosclerosis exist.
