glutathione s-transferases (gsts) are widespread in fasciola. hepatica parasite and sheep liver tissue. study of gsts inhibition assays in f. hepatica and sheep liver tissue are a priority of chemotherapeutic targets in parasitic liver diseases including human fascioliasis in iran. in this research, the whole extract of f. hepatica and sheep liver tissues were purified and eluted for sodium dod...

glutathione transferases are multifunctional proteins involved in several diverse intracellular events such as primary and secondary metabolisms, signaling and stress metabolism. these enzymes have been subdivided into eight classes in plants. the phi class, being plant specific, is the most represented. in the present study, based on the sequences available at genbank, different primers were d...

glutathione s-transferases (gsts) are encoded by a superfamily of genes and play a role in the detoxification of potential carcinogens. the human gsts are divided into four classes: alpha, mu, pi and theta. previous studies indicated that the absence of the glutathione s-transferase m1 (gstm1) protein correlated with an increased risk of developing some types of cancers. association between spe...

fascioliasis is a worldwide parasitic disease in human and domestic animals. the causative agents of fascioliasis are fasciola hepatica and fasciola gigantica. in the recent years, fasciola resistance to drugs has been reported in the many of publications. fasciola spp has detoxification system including gst enzyme which may be responsible for its resistance. therefore , the aim of the study wa...

background: the glutathione s-transferase (gst) family of metabolising enzymes plays an important role in the detoxification of mutagens and carcinogens. the expression of many of these cancer susceptibility enzymes is genetically polymorphic. an increased frequency of gst-null genotypes has been associated with several malignancies. objective: to investigate the rate of gstt1 and gstm1 null ge...

background: endometriosis is one of the most common gynecologic disorders. it is a complex trait and both genetic and environmental factors have been implicated in its pathogenesis. there is growing evidence indicating that exposure to environmental contaminants is a risk factor for endometriosis. glutathione-s-transferase m1 (gstm1) is one of the genes involved in detoxification of endogenous ...

OBJECTIVE To study the levels of glutathione S-transferase Alpha 1-1 and glutathione S-transferase Pi 1-1 in human preovulatory ovarian follicular fluid (FF) and pooled granulosa and cumulus cells. DESIGN The relation of glutathione S-transferase Alpha 1-1 and glutathione S-transferase Pi 1-1 with P and 17 beta-E2 concentrations were studied. SETTING The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecol...
