Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Glutathione S-transferase mu (GST mu) enzyme detoxifies carcinogens in tobacco smoke. We assessed the clinical usefulness of serum assay of GSTm in determining the risk for lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifty-nine patients with primary lung cancer and 32 control cases were enrolled. GSTm detection was performed by the method ELISA. RESULTS: GSTm enzyme positivity rate of the patient group (39%)...
