Glutathione S-transferase polymorphisms in patients with drug eruption.

Abstract excerpt

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymes play an important role in drug metabolism. GST is a multigene family of enzymes involved in the detoxification and in a few instances activation of a wide variety of chemicals. Detoxification features make it plausible to search for GST polymorphism in patients with drug eruption. The GSTM (mu), GSTT (theta) and GSTP (pi) have been shown to be polymorphically distributed....
