Abstract excerpt
Busulfan and the metabolites of cyclophosphamide are conjugated with glutathione and catabolized by enzymes of the cytosolic glutathione S-transferases family. There are clearly linked single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region of the glutathione S-transferase A1 gene (i.e., GSTA1*A, -567T, -69C and -52G; GSTA1*B, -567G, -69T and -52A). We assessed whether the clinical outcomes, including acute...
