Abstract excerpt
The glutathione-S-transferase (GST) super family comprises multiple isozymes (Alpha, Mu, Pi, Omega, Theta, and Zeta) with compelling evidence of functional polymorphic variation. Over the last two decades, a significant body of data has accumulated linking aberrant expression of GST isozymes with the development and expression of resistance to cancer drugs. Clinical correlation studies show that genetic...
