.The major goal of this study is to learn how people view the GST and it affects their spending saving habits as well general awareness tax.

Human glutathione S-transferase pi (GST-pi) may serve as a useful tumor marker because of the high frequency with which it is found in elevated levels in several tumor types. To determine whether GST-pi is useful as an indicator for cancers of the head and neck, expression of GST-pi mRNA was investigated by Northern analysis in this tumor type. Overexpression of GST-pi mRNA was detected in 9 of...

BACKGROUND Oxidative stress plays a potential role in the pathogenesis and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) detoxify toxic compounds in tobacco smoke via glutathione-dependent mechanisms. Little is known about the regulation and expression of GSTs in COPD lung and their presence in airway secretions. METHODS GST alpha, pi and mu we...

GST-TAT-SOD was the fusion of superoxide dismutase (SOD), cell-permeable peptide TAT, and glutathione-S-transferase (GST). It was proved to be a potential selective radioprotector in vitro in our previous work. This study evaluated the in vivo radioprotective activity of GST-TAT-SOD against whole-body irradiation. We demonstrated that intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 ml GST-TAT-SOD (2 kU/ml) 2 ...

the p53 protein is expressed in all normal cells and appears to function in cell cycle regulation. abnormally higli levels of the protein are found in many different types of cancer. in breast cancer, overexpression of p53 is associated with point mutations within highly conserved regions of the p53 gene. these altered genes encode stable p53 protein that can be detected by standard immunohisto...

Breast carcinoma is the most common cancer and cause of death among females worldwide, including Jordan. The risk factors for breast carcinoma are linked to DNA mutation and failure of DNA repair or detoxification systems. Identification of susceptibility factors that predispose individuals to breast carcinoma if they are exposed to particular environmental agents might give further insight int...

Glutathione transferase (formerly GST) catalyzes the inactivation of various electrophile-producing anticancer agents via conjugation to the tripeptide glutathione. Moreover, several data link the overexpression of some GSTs, in particular GSTP1-1, to both natural and acquired resistance to various structurally unrelated anticancer drugs. Tumor overexpression of these proteins has provided a ra...

An initial stage of fibrillogenesis in solutions of glutathione S-transferase-huntingtin (GST-HD) fusion proteins has been studied by using dynamic light scattering. Two GST-HD systems with poly-L-glutamine (polyGln) extensions of different lengths (20 and 51 residues) have been examined. For both systems, kinetics of z-average translation diffusion coefficients (Dapp) and their angular depende...

The generalized S transform (GST), a family of reversible integer-to-integer transforms inspired by the S transform, is proposed. This family of transforms is then studied in detail by considering topics such as GST parameter calculation, the effects of using different rounding operators in the GST, and the relationship between the GST and the lifting scheme. Some examples of specific transform...
