Dependence of blood levels of HSP70 and HSP90 on genotypes of HSP70, GSTT1, and GSTM1 gene polymorphism in individuals chronically exposed to mercury.

Abstract excerpt

The relationship between blood levels of HSP72, HSP72+HSP73, and HSP90 and genotypes of three polymorphisms of the HSP70 family, HSPA1L (2437T/C) and HSPA1B (2074G/C and 1267A/G) as well as GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms was studied in 82 men chronically exposed to mercury. Of these, 40 men were exposed to mercury for more than 10 years (group 1) and 42 developed chronic mercuric intoxication (group 2). The groups...
