Abstract excerpt
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of multifunctional enzymes that are involved in the metabolism of many xenobiotics, including a wide range of environmental carcinogens. The null genotypes GSTM1 and GSTT1 have been implicated in the development of carcinogenesis. We conducted a meta-analysis to examine the association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 homozygous deletion polymorphisms with melanoma risk. In total,...
