Commentary Benzene, NQO1, and genetic susceptibility to cancer
NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1; EC 1.6.99.2), originally called DT-diaphorase (1), is an enzyme that has attracted considerable attention because of its ability to detoxify a number of natural and synthetic compounds and, conversely, to activate certain anticancer agents (2, 3). It is also a highly inducible enzyme. Synthetic antioxidants, such as butylated hydroxyanisole, and extracts ...
متن کاملTP53, MDM2, NQO1, and susceptibility to cervical cancer.
Host genetic variability modifies the risk of cervical cancer in women infected with oncogenic human papillomavirus (HPV). Studies have reported an association of the TP53 codon 72 arginine and cervical cancer, but the results are inconsistent. We examined the association of this single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in women with cervical cancer and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3, u...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphism of N142D GSTO2 and susceptibility to breast cancer: a meta-analysis
To establish a comprehensive picture of the relationship between glutathione S-transferase omega 2 (GSTO2; MIM: 612314) gene N142D variant (rs. 156697) and breast cancer risk, the present meta-analysis was carried out. Studies published up to July 2012 with information about GSTO2 polymorphism and breast cancer risk were identified using several electronic databases. We identified 4 eligible st...
متن کاملNQO1 C609T polymorphism and colorectal cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis
INTRODUCTION A FEW STUDIES HAVE REPORTED AN ASSOCIATION BETWEEN NADP(H): quinine oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) C609T polymorphism and susceptibility to colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the results were inconsistent rather than conclusive. We performed a meta-analysis to examine this association in various populations. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eligible articles were identified by a search of several da...
متن کاملAssociation of genetic polymorphisms in CYP2E1, MPO, NQO1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 genes with benzene poisoning.
Metabolic enzymes involved in benzene activation or detoxification, including NAD(P)H, quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1), myeloperoxidase (MPO), glutathione-S-transferase mu-1 (GSTM1), and glutathione-S-transferase theta-1 (GSTT1), were studied for their roles in human susceptibility to benzene poisoning. The potential interactions of these metabolic enzymes with lif...
