Abstract excerpt
Recent studies suggest that the common variant in the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes modifies the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), however, it is unclear whether the risk of CAD modulated by variants in the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes was associated with alterations of indices of oxidative stress and inflammation. Our study is an attempt to provide insight into the role of GST genetic variant and markers of oxidative...
