Functional compensation of glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) null by another GST superfamily member,GSTM2 [PDF]
The gene for glutathione-S-transferase (GST) M1 (GSTM1), a member of the GST-superfamily, is widely studied in cancer risk with regard to the homozygous deletion of the gene (GSTM1 null), leading to a lack of corresponding enzymatic activity.

Introduction: The causative factors of diabetic retinopathy and nephropathy are genetic as well as environmental. The Glutathione S-transferase gene family is involved in redox balance to reduce oxidative stress, which is an important factor associated ...

CR8L10 is self‐assembled with catalase (CAT) to form CR8L10@CAT nanocomplexes, which can anchor to mucosal surfaces via thiol‐disulfide exchange with mucin, thereby enhancing their mucosal retention. The efficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging at inflamed sites would then result in successful treatment in both the intravesical IC/BPS model ...

Detection of GSTM1-null Genotype in Women Undergoing IVF Treatment
Background: Glutathione S-transferase (GST) M1 belongs to a family of detoxification enzymes and deficiency in enzyme activity is due to a homozygous deletion of the GSTM1 gene. Several studies reveal a possible correlation between female infertility and

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators are widely used in patients with cystic fibrosis and significantly improve respiratory function and quality of life. However, their effectiveness may be limited by liver damage, which sometimes leads to treatment discontinuation, and the mechanisms underlying this remain poorly ...

GSTM1 polymorphism in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is characterized by loss of retinal ganglion cells, optic nerve damage and irreversible loss of visual field. Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. It was estimated that in 2010 there were about 60.5 million glaucoma cases worldwide; among these patients, 4.5 million will become bilaterally

Sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and chromosome aberrations (CA) in peripheral lymphocytes has been widely used in assessing exposure to mutagens and carcinogens. One of the extensively studied genotoxins is benzo[alpha]pyrene (BaP).

Model for how α‐syn modulates the positioning of endolysosomes in melanoma cells. (a) α‐syn tethers endolysosomes to the plasma membrane, a last step in anterograde transport. (b) Loss of α‐syn expression causes the loss of the tethering function, which leads to perinuclear vesicle clustering. Reproduced from the open access article.

Based on meta‐analyses and cumulative epidemiological evidence, the present study identifies 11 genetic variants in 11 genes that are truly associated with the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. Our work presents a systematic synopsis, which helps elucidate the mechanisms of carcinogenesis and provides insights into the early diagnosis and novel ...
