LETTER TO JMG Glutathione S-transferase M1, T1 status and the risk of head and neck cancer: a meta-analysis
S quamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, including the larynx, pharynx, and oral cavity, is a relatively common human neoplasm and accounts for approximately 2% of deaths from cancer in the western world. In 1985, there were nearly 900 000 new cases of head and neck cancer registered worldwide. An increasing number of epidemiological studies indicate that tobacco and alcohol consumption a...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 status and the risk of laryngeal cancer: a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Polymorphic variations in GSTM1 and GSTT1 have been implicated as risk factors for various cancers. A number of studies conducted to assess their association with susceptibility to laryngeal carcinomas have yielded inconsistent and inconclusive results. In the present study, the possible association of laryngeal cancer risk with GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes was explored by a meta a...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 polymorphisms and cervical cancer risk: a meta-analysis.
There were some studies on the associations between Glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) and Glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) polymorphisms and cervical cancer (CC) risk, but the results were inconsistent. Thus, a meta-analysis was performed. The electronic databases PubMed, Science Direct, CBM, and CNKI were searched for possible studies. Finally, 16 studies (1,627 cases and 2,161 controls...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase T1 status and gastric cancer risk: a meta-analysis of the literature.
To clarify the risk of gastric cancer associated with glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) status, a meta-analysis of published studies was performed. Eligible studies included all reports investigating an association between GSTT1 status and gastric cancer published before October 31, 2005. A qualitative scoring of papers was applied to evaluate the quality of the published data. The principal...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase M1 status and lung cancer risk: a meta-analysis.
Interindividual differences in lung cancer susceptibility may be mediated in part through polymorphic variability in the bioactivation of procarcinogens. GSTM1 status has been extensively studied in this context as a lung cancer risk factor, although published studies have produced conflicting results. To clarify the impact of GSTM1 status on lung cancer risk a meta-analysis of 23 case-control ...
