Objectives: To investigate the correlation between glutathione S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) Ile105Val polymorphism and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk.

Methods: Studies were identified to investigate the association between GSTP1 Ile105Val polymorphism and CRC risk. Systematic computerized searches of the PubMed, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, WANFANG and SinoMed were performed. Summary odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were used to measure GSTP1 Ile105Val polymorphisms and CRC risk.

Results: A total of 23 retrospective studies were included in the meta-analysis. During all studies including 6,981 cases and 8,977 controls, sample sizes ranged from 146 to 2,144. Overall, the pooled results revealed that Ile105Val polymorphism was not associated with CRC risk and confused results were found in subgroup analyses. Further meta-analyses were conducted after excluding low-quality studies. GSTP1 Ile105Val is associated with increased risk of CRC limited in studies with matched control. There was no significant heterogeneity in all genetic comparisons, but heterogeneity existed in subgroup analyses of heterozygous and dominant comparisons. The meta-regression analyses indicated that matched controls were the significant factor influencing between-study heterogeneity in all possible influential factors including published year, ethnicity, source of control, sample size, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) in control and matched controls. Sensitivity analysis revealed the pooled ORs were not changed before and after removal of each single study in all genetic comparisons, indicating the robustness of the results.

Conclusions: GSTP1 Ile105Val might be associated with increased risk of CRC. However, more high-quality case-control studies should be performed to confirm the authenticity of our conclusion.

The genetic alteration in the antioxidant gene Glutathione-S-Transferases Pi 1 (GSTP1) namely GSTP1*IIe105Val (rs1695) and GSTP1*Ala114Val (rs1138272) changes the individual susceptibility to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by altering the substrate binding and catalytic activity. This study aims to investigate the association of GSTP1 rs1695 and rs1138272 polymorphism with CVD development in T2DM patients. Genotyping was performed with 400 study participants-group I: control; group II: T2DM; group III: CVD; and group IV: T2DM/CVD [nā€‰=ā€‰100 each] by PCR-RFLP.

Background And Objective: Several genetic variations are associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) susceptibility, including the polymorphism. Even with the existing meta-analysis conducted on the topic, no consensus has been reached since none of the studies available performed in-depth data analysis. Hence, we performed an updated systematic review and meta-analysis in this paper to obtain more precise estimates.

Glutathione S-transferase M1, T1, and P1 polymorphisms and periodontitis in a Caucasian population: a case-control study.

BMC Oral Health

February 2024

Clinic of Stomatology, Institution Shared with St. Anne's University Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Masaryk University, Pekarska 664/53, Brno, 602 00, Czech Republic.

Background: Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play important roles in protecting cells against oxidative stress and toxic chemicals. This study aimed to investigate the distribution of GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 variants and their roles in periodontitis susceptibility in a Caucasian population.

Methods: We analyzed 406 participants, including 204 healthy controls and 203 periodontitis patients.

Article Synopsis
  • - Jamaican children are exposed to mercury (Hg) primarily through their diet, particularly from consuming saltwater and canned fish, which can negatively affect neurodevelopment.
  • - The study examined the relationship between environmental Hg exposure, specific GST genes (GSTT1, GSTM1, GSTP1), and blood mercury concentrations in a sample of 375 children aged 2-8.
  • - Results showed that the impact of consuming canned fish on blood Hg levels is stronger in children with specific GSTP1 genotypes, emphasizing the need for further research in other populations.

Article Synopsis
  • Aluminum can be toxic, especially from high dietary intake in children, and this study focused on 366 Jamaican children aged 2ā€“8 to analyze factors contributing to detectable blood aluminum levels.
  • The research found that eating string beans was linked to higher odds of detectable blood aluminum, while higher parental education was associated with lower odds.
  • An interaction was noted between the consumption of saltwater fish and a specific GSTP1 genotype, indicating that children with a certain genetic makeup who ate saltwater fish showed significantly higher odds of having detectable blood aluminum levels.
