2022-03-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Exemestane (EXE) is used to treat post-menopausal women diagnosed with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. A major mode of metabolism of EXE and its active metabolite, 17β-dihydroexemestane (17β-DHE), is via glutathionylation by glutathione-S-transferase (GST) enzymes. The goal of the present study was to investigate the effects of genetic variation in EXE-metabolizing GST enzymes...
