Glutathione S‐Transferase M1 and T1 Gene Polymorphisms and the Outcome of Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection in Egyptian Patients

We analysed the distribution of GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms in Egyptian patients with chronic hepatitis C, and investigated their relationship to the clinical outcome of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This study included 169 patients with chronic HCV infection and 145 healthy and matched controls.GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms were genotyped by multiplex polymerase chain reaction. Individual GSTM1 null and GSTT1 null genotypes were more frequent in patients versus control subjects [OR, 4 (95% CI, 2.5–6.4); P ? 0.001] and [OR, 1.7 (95% CI, 1.1–2.6); P = 0.025], respectively. The patient group showed a higher frequency of the combined GSTM1/GSTT1 double‐null genotype than the control group [OR, 1.8 (95% CI, 1.1–2.9); P = 0.016]. The distribution frequencies of the combined GSTM1/GSTT1 double‐null genotype were significantly different [OR, 0.5 (95% CI, 0.25–0.99); P = 0.049] between F0–F3 and F4. There were no significant differences between the two groups with regard to other genotypes. The combined GSTM1/GSTT1 double‐null genotype was significantly increased in Child‐Pugh C patients in comparison to Child‐Pugh A+B (P = 0.02). There was no significant difference between different classes with regard to other genotypes. In conclusion, we identified an association between the combined GSTM1/GSTT1 double‐null genotype and advanced liver fibrosis and outcome of chronic HCV infection in Egyptian patients.     

Genetic polymorphism of the glutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 genes in three distinct Arab populations

Deletion polymorphisms for the glutathione S-transferase (GST) gene are associated with increased risk of cancer, and are implicated in detoxifying mutagenic electrophilic compounds. GST Polymorphic variants were reported for different populations. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequencies of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes among Bahraini, Lebanese and Tunisian Arabs. GST genotyping was done by multiplex PCR-based methods. Study subjects comprised 167 Bahrainis, 141 Lebanese and 186 Tunisians unrelated healthy individuals. GSTM1 deletion homozygosity of 49.7%, 52.5% and 63.4% were recorded for Bahraini, Lebanese and Tunisians, respectively. Among Bahrainis, the prevalence of GSTT1 null homozygotes was 28.7%, while in higher rates were seen in Lebanese (37.6%) and Tunisians (37.1%). Our results indicate that there are no major differences in allelic distribution of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes between the three Arab populations investigated except between Bahrainis and Tunisians regarding the allelic distribution of GSTM1 gene (P=0.013). Combined analysis of both genes revealed that 14.4% of Bahrainis, 16.3% of Lebanese and 21.0% of Tunisians harbor the deleted genotype of both genes. This is the first study that addresses GST gene polymorphism in Bahraini and Lebanese Arabs, and will help genetic studies on the association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms with disease risks and drug effects in Arab populations.     

Glutathione-s-transferase M1 and T1 polymorphisms and associations with type 1 diabetes age-at-onset

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by pancreatic beta cell destruction involving auto-reactive T-cells, pro-inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and loss of insulin. Monozygotic twin studies show a 20–60% concordance with T1D indicating there may be an environmental component to the disease. Glutathione (GSH) is the major endogenous antioxidant produced by the cell. GSH participates directly in the neutralization of free radicals and plays a role in the immune response. Glutathione-s-transferases (GSTs) conjugate GSH to free-radicals or xenobiotics. GST activity depletes GSH levels and may either detoxify or enhance the toxicity of a compound. Glutathione-s-transferase mu 1 (GSTM1) and glutathione-s-transferase theta 1 (GSTT1) have polymorphic homozygous deletion (null) genotypes resulting in complete absence of enzyme activity. GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes in Caucasian populations have frequencies of approximately 40–60% and 15–20%, respectively. GST null genotypes have been associated with susceptibility to cancer and protection against chronic pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to investigate associations with GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms in a group T1D patients and control subjects 0–35 years old who participated in the Combined Swedish Childhood Diabetes Registry and Diabetes Incidence Study (1986–1988). Results show that the presence of the GSTM1 and not the null genotype (OR, 2.13 95% CI, 1.23–3.70, p-value, 0.007, Bonferroni corrected p-value, 0.035) may be a susceptibility factor in T1D 14–20 years old. These results suggest that the GSTM1 null genotype is associated with T1D protection and T1D age-at-onset and that susceptibility to T1D may involve GST conjugation.     

Polymorphisms of the genes encoding the GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 in Korean women: no association with endometriosis

Endometriosis, one of the most common gynaecologic disorders, shows significantly elevated prevalence in industrial areas and there is also a possible genetic predisposition. Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are enzymes involved in the metabolism of many disease-causing carcinogens and mutagens that are present in human environments. An association between the incidence of endometriosis and the GST genotypes of patients has been suggested. The objective of the present study was to investigate whether the polymorphisms of GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 are related to endometriosis. Blood samples were available from 259 controls and 194 patients with advanced endometriosis diagnosed by both pathology and laparoscopic findings. The proportion of the GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 genotypes of the control group were comparable to other populations. There was no significant evidence that the distribution of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotype differed between the patients and the controls, with an allelic odds ratio (OR)=1.074 [95% confidence interval (CI)=0.737-1.564] and 1.239 (95% CI = 0.853-1.799), respectively. Also, there was no significant difference in the proportion of GSTP1 genotypes between the women with endometriosis and the control group with the OR = 0.823 (95% CI = 0.536-1.264). The higher risk alleles were contended as GSTM1, GSTT1 null mutation and GSTP1 Ile105Ile polymorphism. There was no significant increase in the risk of endometriosis as the number of higher risk alleles of the GST family increased. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 genetic polymorphisms are not associated with the development of endometriosis in Korean women.     

Relation of glutathione S-transferase genotypes (GSTM1 and GSTT1) to laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma risk

The purpose of the present study was to investigate GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes by using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). The genotypes of 110 patients with LSCC and of 197 healthy subjects as the control group were determined by PCR analysis for GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes. Results showed that frequencies of GSTM1-null, GSTT1-null, and both GSTs-null genotypes were 51.8, 30, and 16.4%, respectively, in the patients with LSCC and 37.6, 15.7, and 5.6% in the control group. There was a significant difference between the genotype distributions of all GSTs in patients and in control groups (P < 0.05). The results support the hypothesis that null genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 can reduce detoxification capacity of GSTs as members of the xenobiotic enzyme system. GSTM1-null, GSTT1-null, and both GSTs-null genotypes were more common in the patients with LSCC than in the control group. Patients with both GSTs-null genotypes had the highest risk for supraglottic LSCC in the early period, even if they were light-to-medium smokers. Investigation and determination of the genetic basis of LSCC may contribute to detection of risk groups and to prevent LSCC in the population.
