| Abstract |
:
Detoxifying glutathione S-transferase (GST) gene polymorphisms show variation in different ethnic populations. GST detoxifies and metabolizes carcinogens, including oxygen free radicals. GST polymorphisms have been associated with susceptibility to different diseases. In the current study, allelic polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 were analyzed in three ethnic groups of North East (NE) India where a high prevalence of various cancers and other diseases such as hypertension, tuberculosis, and asthma have been reported. |
