Abstract
BACKGROUND Our research aimed to clarify the role of genetic polymorphisms in GST (T1 and M1) in the development of Ph-ve CML. MATERIALS AND METHODS We report on a case-control study with 126 participants, divided into 26 patients with Ph-ve CML (57.7% male, 42.3% female) and 100 healthy volunteers (51% male, 49% female) with no medical history of cancer as a control population. All Ph-ve CML patients were diagnosed according to standard hematologic and cytogenetic criteria based on CBC, confirmed by Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) to determine the presence or absence of the BCRABL gene, followed by bone marrow (BM) examination. RESULTS Of the 26 studied cases, 50% had the GSTT1 null genotype against 21% of the control group, a statistically significant difference (CI= 1.519 - 9.317; p-value= 0.004). The GSTM1 null genotype was detected in 23.1% of cases and 35% of controls, a difference not statistically significant (OR= 0.557; CI= 0.205-1.515; p-value= 0.252). The distribution of GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms was also examined according to gender, age and ethnic grouping; these findings revealed no statistically significant differences. CONCLUSION Our study reveals a strong correlation between GSTT1 polymorphism and Ph-ve CML, whereas the data for GSTM1 polymorphisms indicates no role in the initial development of the disease. More studies are required to further clarify these and other genes' roles in disease development.

[PMID: 35938012 PMCID: PMC9355274 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.898937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Fourteen meta-analyses reported the individual effects of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms on leukemia risk. However, over 40 studies were not included in previously published meta-analyses. Moreover, one key aspect was that previous meta-analyses did not conduct the false-positive test on the aforementioned issues. Furthermore, previous meta-analyses did not observe the combined effects of GSTM1 present/null and GSTT1 present/null polymorphism with leukemia risk. Therefore, we conducted the current study to further analyze these associations. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the association between the individual and combined effects of the GSTM1 present/null and GSTT1 present/null polymorphisms and the risk of leukemia. Methods: A meta-analysis was performed applying Meta-analyses of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) guidelines. Moreover, false-positive report probability (FPRP) and Bayesian false discovery probability (BFDP) were applied to investigate the false-positive results. Results: The individual GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes and combined effects of the two genes were associated with a significantly increased leukemia risk in overall and several subgroup analyses, such as Asians, Caucasians, and so on. Then, further analysis was conducted using FPRP and BFDP. Significant associations were considered as “positive” results on the GSTM1 null genotype with leukemia risk in overall populations (FPRP < 0.001 and BFDP = 0.006), Asians (FPRP < 0.001 and BFDP < 0.001), and East Asian population (FPRP < 0.001 and BFDP = 0.002). For the GSTT1 null genotype, significant associations were regarded “positive” results in overall populations, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), Asians, and East Asian population. For the combined effects of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms, significant associations were also considered “positive” results in the overall analysis of Asians, Indians, and East Asian population. Conclusion: This study strongly indicates that the individual GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes and combined effects of the two genes are associated with increased leukemia risk in Asians, especially in the East Asian population; the GSTT1 null genotype is associated with increased AML risk; the combined effects of the two genes are associated with increased leukemia risk in Indians.

Abstract
Purpose Glutathione S-transferases (GSTT1 and GSTM1) are instrumental in detoxification process of activated carcinogens. Nucleotide excision repair is carried out by DNA helicase encoded by xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) genes and aberrations in the XPD gene predisposes to increased risk of cancer. The present study aimed to investigate GSTT1, GSTM1 and XPD polymorphisms in newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients and to examine the association of these polymorphisms with the risk of developing CML. Patients and Methods This case–control study was carried out from June 2019 to August 2021 involving 150 newly diagnosed patients with CML and an equal number of randomly selected age- and sex-matched healthy individuals. A multiplex-PCR assay was used to genotype GSTT1 null and GSTM1 null polymorphisms. XPD gene polymorphism was detected by PCR-RFLP using predesigned gene-specific primers. Results GSTT1 and GSTM1 null polymorphisms were detected in 42.7% and 61.3% of cases, respectively, compared to 18% and 35.3% for controls. The combination of both GST null polymorphisms revealed a significant association with CML. Frequencies of XPD Lys751Gln genotypes in cases were 62.7% heterozygous Lys/Gln, 24% homozygous Lys/Lys and 13.3% homozygous Gln/Gln, while in the controls were 74.7%, 20%, and 5.3%, respectively. Significant differences were also noted regarding the combination of GSTT1/GSTM1 null with XPD Lys/Lys, and GSTM1 null with XPD Lys/Lys. Conclusion In conclusion, GSTT1 null, GSTM1 null and XPD polymorphisms showed positive association with the risk of development of CML. Furthermore, age and gender did not exhibit any association with the studied polymorphisms, while CML phases were associated with GSTT1 null polymorphism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of cancer results from an imbalance between exposure to carcinogens and the capacity of various enzyme systems engaged in activation or in the detoxification of xenobiotics. The aim of the present study is to investigate the association of GSTP1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms in susceptibility to Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML). METHODS A total of 200 CML patients and 100 controls were enrolled in a case-control study with GSTM1 and GSTT1 analysis with PCR and GSTP1 analysis with PCR-RFLP. RESULTS The GSTT1 null genotype was significantly higher among CML patients suggesting that this genotype is associated with an increased risk of CML. It was found in 42% of cases as compared with 21% of the controls, (OR =2.78, 95% CI: 1.59 - 4.85; p-value =0.000). The presence of the GSTT1 genotype may thus be considered a protective factor for CML. The frequency of individuals carrying GSTM1 null genotype was slightly higher in the control group but this difference was not statistically significant. The GSTM1 null genotype was present in 35% of control cases and 34% of the CML patients, (OR=0.975, 95%CI: 0.58-1.58;p-value=0.863). Individuals with a combined GSTM1 null/GSTT1null genotype had an estimated 2.85-fold increased risk of CML, but no associated risk between GSTP1 Ile 105 Val polymorphism and CML was found (OR=1.99, 95% CI: 0.40 - 9.32; p-value = 0.417). CONCLUSIONS No association between GSTP1 and GSTM1 with susceptibility to CML was found. GSTT1 genotype may be a protective factor for CML, while the null genotype shows association with developing CML.<br />.

Abstract
The glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes encode enzymes that mediate the detoxification of xenobiotics by catalyzing the conjugation of glutathione (GSH) to xenobiotic substrates. The aim of the current study is to investigate the association between GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) among Sudanese patients. Patients with CML (n = 115) were recruited to the study from the Radiation and Isotope Centre Khartoum (RICK)-Sudan. Healthy individuals (n = 104) were included as controls. Genotyping of GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms was performed using multiplex PCR. Null deletions in the GSTT1 and GSTM1 genes are common in the Sudanese population (control group), with frequencies of 33.9% and 38.2%, respectively. The frequencies of GSTT1 (OR: 3.25, 95% CI: 1.87-5.65, p < 0.001) and GSTM1 (OR: 2.14, 95% CI: 1.25-3.67, p < 0.005) null genotypes were significantly higher in CML patients vs. controls. The distribution of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null polymorphisms was not different between male and female (p > 0.01) and young and old CML patients (p > 0.05). Hematological parameters were not affected by null polymorphisms in the patient group (p > 0.05). In addition, the frequency of GSTM1 null polymorphism was lower in advanced-phase CML patients compared to chronic-phase patients (p < 0.05). The GSTT1 and GSTM1 null polymorphisms are associated with CML among Sudanese patients, independently of their age and gender.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Increased SCEs frequencies in human lymphocytes are an indicator of spontaneous chromosome instability and could be influenced by different exogenous and endogenous factors. In this study, we evaluated the influence of age, sex, smoking habits, and genetic polymorphisms on the background levels of SCEs in peripheral blood lymphocytes. METHODS Two hundred-thirty healthy Italian subjects were recruited. Data about age, sex and smoking habits were recorded. Subjects were also genotyped for GSTT1, GSTM1, GSTP1 A/G, CYP1A1 Ile/Val, CYP2C19 G/A, ERCC2/XPD Lys751Gln, XRCC1 Arg194ATrp, XRCC1 Arg399Gln, and XRCC1Arg208His gene polymorphisms. RESULTS The frequency of SCEs/cell was 5.15 ± 1.87, with females showing a significantly higher SCEs value with respect to males (5.36 ± 2.10 and 4.82 ± 1.39, respectively). Smokers showed significantly increased levels of SCEs with respect to nonsmokers (5.93 ± 1.75 and 4.70 ± 1.79, respectively) whereas no differences were observed between heavy and light smokers. Age correlated with the RI value (P = .01) but not with the SCEs frequency (P = 07), although the 31-40 age group showed a significantly lower SCEs frequency with respect to the other age groups. A significant association was also found between GSTP2C19-AA, GSTT1-null, GSTM1-null, ERCC2/XPD Gln751Gln, and XRCC1 His208His genotypes, and higher frequencies of SCEs. CONCLUSION We describe the association between some phase I, phase II, and DNA-repair gene polymorphisms with increased SCEs frequencies, reinforcing the importance of genetic analysis in biomonitoring studies. Sex and age were found to be important endogenous factors that affect the level of genomic damage and the replicative capacity of cells, respectively.

Abstract
AIM To analyze the association between oncohematological diseases and GSTT1/GSTM1/CYP1A1 polymorphisms, dietary habits and smoking, in an argentine hospital-based case-control study.
METHODS This hospital-based case-control study involved 125 patients with oncohematological diseases and 310 control subjects. A questionnaire was used to obtain sociodemographic data and information about habits. Blood samples were collected, and DNA was extracted using salting out methods. Deletions in GSTT1 and GSTM1 (null genotypes) were addressed by PCR. CYP1A1 MspI polymorphism was detected by PCR-RFLP. Odds ratio (OR) and 95%CI were calculated to estimate the association between each variable studied and oncohematological disease.
RESULTS Women showed lower risk of disease compared to men (OR 0.52, 95%CI: 0.34-0.82, P = 0.003). Higher levels of education (> 12 years) were significantly associated with an increased risk, compared to complete primary school or less (OR 3.68, 95%CI: 1.82-7.40, P < 0.001 adjusted for age and sex). With respect to tobacco, none of the smoking categories showed association with oncohematological diseases. Regarding dietary habits, consumption of grilled/barbecued meat 3 or more times per month showed significant association with an increased risk of disease (OR 1.72, 95%CI: 1.08-2.75, P = 0.02). Daily consumption of coffee also was associated with an increased risk (OR 1.77, 95%CI: 1.03-3.03, P = 0.03). Results for GSTT1, GSTM1 and CYP1A1 polymorphisms showed no significant association with oncohematological diseases. When analyzing the interaction between polymorphisms and tobacco smoking or dietary habits, no statistically significant associations that modify disease risk were found.
CONCLUSION We reported an increased risk of oncohematological diseases associated with meat and coffee intake. We did not find significant associations between genetic polymorphisms and blood cancer.

Abstract
All over the world, people have been debating about associated health risks due to radiation from mobile phones and mobile towers. The carcinogenicity of this nonionizing radiation has been the greatest health concern associated with mobile towers exposure until recently. The objective of our study was to evaluate the genetic damage caused by radiation from mobile towers and to find an association between genetic polymorphism of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes and DNA damage. In our study, 116 persons exposed to radiation from mobile towers and 106 control subjects were genotyped for polymorphisms in the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes by multiplex polymerase chain reaction method. DNA damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes was determined using alkaline comet assay in terms of tail moment (TM) value and micronucleus assay in buccal cells (BMN). There was a significant increase in BMN frequency and TM value in exposed subjects (3.65 ± 2.44 and 6.63 ± 2.32) compared with control subjects (1.23 ± 0.97 and 0.26 ± 0.27). However, there was no association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms with the level of DNA damage in both exposed and control groups.

Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), as most of cancers results from a complex interaction between genetic or non genetic factors. Exposures to xenobiotics endogenous or exogenous associated with a reduced individual ability in detoxifying activity, constitutes a risk of developing cancer. It is known that polymorphism of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) genes affects the detoxification of xenobiotics. Thus, we conducted a case-control study in which 92 patients (Mean age ± SD, 40.62 ± 12.7 years) with CML and 93 healthy unrelated controls (Mean age ± SD, 41.38 ± 13.4 years) have participated. GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes were determined by multiplex polymerase chain reaction. Logistic regression was used to assess the possible link between GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes and CML as well as between combined genotypes and CML. GSTM1 null genotype frequency was slightly higher in patients than control (48.9% vs. 40.9%) but, it was not associated with CML (OR 95% CI, 1.4, 0.78-2.48; p = 0.271). Moreover, GSTT1 null genotype frequency showed a similar trend between patients and control (17.4% vs. 9.7%; OR 95% CI, 1.97, 0.82-4.71; p = 0.13). Surprisingly, GSTT1 null genotype was significantly associated with the risk of CML in males (OR 95% CI, 5, 1.25-20.1; p = 0.023). The combined GSTM1 present/GSTT1 null genotype was found to have a limited effect against the risk of CML (OR 95% CI, 0.3, 0.08-0.99; p = 0.049). Our findings have shown that GSTT1 null genotype might be a risk factor of CML in males. While, GSTT1 present genotype might be considered as protective against CML. However, further studies with a large sample size are needed to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Occupational exposure to anaesthetic gases is one of the major hazards to healthcare personnel. We evaluated the cytogenetic effects of chronic exposure to low concentrations of anaesthetic gases in operating theatres. The study included 21 anesthetists and 21 control subjects who matched in age and gender. Chromosome aberrations (CAs) and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) assays were performed. All subjects were also genotyped for glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) gene polymorphisms. Significant differences were found between exposed and controls in terms of SCEs frequency (P = 0.001) and replication index value (P = 0.005), but not in terms of CAs (P = 0.201) and aberrant cells (P = 0.227) frequencies. Regression analyses indicated that age and the years of employment did not influence the level of chromosomal damage in both groups. Finally, among anesthetists, GSTT1 null individuals showed a significant higher frequency of SCE with respect to GSTT1-positive subjects.

Abstract
Glutathione S-transferase (GST), a phase II metabolizing enzyme, plays an important role in the cellar defense system, and its activity may modulate leukemia risk. A large body of evidence has shown the possible relevance of functional polymorphisms of the genes that encode GSTs μ, π, and θ (GSTM1, GSTP1, and GST1, respectively) to the genetic susceptibility of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Because of the lack of available conclusive data, we performed a meta-analysis of all relevant available studies to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship. A comprehensive literature search of PubMed and Web of Knowledge electronic databases was conducted to collect relevant studies until December 20, 2013, and the extracted data were statistically analyzed using Review Manager version 5.2. Finally, 16 eligible studies were identified in the literature. The GSTT1 null genotype was associated with an increased risk of CML, as were the double null GSTT1 and GSTM1 genotypes. These findings suggest that heritable GST status influences the risk of developing CML and that more attention should be paid to carriers of these susceptibility genes.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the associations of polymorphisms in cytochrome P450 gene (CYP1A1), glutathione S-transferase genes (GSTM1 and GSTT1) with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). A total of 126 patients with CML and 172 healthy volunteers were genotyped, and the DNA was isolated from their blood samples. The polymorphisms were assessed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) restriction fragment length polymorphism-based methods and multiplex PCR. Logistic regression analyses showed significant risk of CML associated with CYP1A1 Val allele [odds ratio (OR) 3.3, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.96-5.53], (p < 0.0001) while CYP1A1 Val/Val homozygotes were observed only in the CML patients. There was statistically significant difference in the frequency of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes. The GSTT1-null genotype was slightly higher in 27% of CML cases and 16.7% of controls (OR 1.98, 95% CI 1.12-3.5) (p < 0.020). The GSTM1 null was higher in 42.8% of CML cases and 22.7% of controls (OR 2.55, 95% CI 1.54-4.22) (p < 0.00024). The individuals carrying CYP1A1 Ile/Val (AG) and GSTM1 null genotype have 9.9 times higher risk to be CML than those carrying CYP1A1 Ile/Ile (AA) and GSTM1 present genotype (OR 9.9, 95% CI 2.7-36.3) (p < 0.0001). This suggests that the association of the GSTM1 null genotype, either alone or in combination with GSTT1 null, with CYP1AI heterozygous leads to the CML risk.

Abstract
Cancer is a complex disease and the genetic susceptibility to it could be an outcome of the inherited difference in the capacity of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes. Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are phase II metabolizing enzymes whose various genotypes have been associated with increased risk of different types of cancer. Null mutations caused by the deletion of the entire gene result in the absence of the enzymatic activity and increase in the risk of developing cancer including chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). In the present case-control study we evaluated the effect of null mutations in GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes on the risk of developing CML. The study included 75 CML patients (43 males and 32 females; age (mean ± S.D) 42.3 ± 13.4 years) and unrelated non-malignant controls (76 male and 48 females; age (mean ± S.D) 41.5 ± 12.9). The distribution of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes in CML patients and controls was assessed by multiplex-PCR method. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes and risk of CML. Chi-square test was used to evaluate the trend in modulating the risk to CML by one or more potential high risk genotype. Although GSTM1 null genotype frequency was higher in CML patients (41%) than in the controls (35%), it did not reached a statistical significance (OD = 1.32, 95% CI: 0.73-2.40; P value = 0.4295). The frequency of GSTT1 null genotypes was higher in the CML patients (36%) than in the controls (21%) and the difference was found to be statistically significant (OD = 2.12, 95% CI: 1.12-4.02; P value = 0.0308). This suggests that the presence of GSTT1 genotype may have protective role against the CML. We found a statistically significant (OD = 3.09, 95% CI: 1.122-8.528; P value = 0.0472) interaction between the GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes and thus individuals carrying null genotypes of both GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes are at elevated risk of CML.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the association of GSTP1, GSTM1, and GSTP1 genetic variants with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) among North Indian patients. The difference in frequency of the GSTT1 null genotype between cases and control subjects was statistically significant (active ver. null, odds ratio [OR]=0.368; confidence intervals [CI] 95%=0.243-0.557, p=0.001). The differences in the frequency of GSTP1 genotypes were statistically significant (AA ver. AG/GG, OR=1.879; CI 95%=0.355-0.797, p=0.002). Higher allelic frequency of the GSTP1 G allele was associated with RCC cases (G ver. A allele, OR=1.534; 95% CI=1.159-2.030, p=0.003). The gene-gene interaction in terms of three-way combination of GSTM1 null, GSTT1 null, and GSTP1 (AG/GG) resulted in 4.5-fold increase in RCC risk (OR=4.452; 95% CI=2.220-9.294). Similarly, our study revealed that GST polymorphism might be a vital determinant of advancement to higher pathological stages and histological grades of RCC. Our findings suggest that genetic variability in members of the GST gene family may be associated with an increased susceptibility to RCC and its progression.

Abstract
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are phase II enzymes that detoxify hazardous xenobiotics including carcinogens. Inter-individual variations in GSTM1 and GSTT1 loci have been associated with several types of cancer, including leukemias. In this study, we investigated the possible association between GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms and susceptibility to chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in a Turkish population. In a case-control study, 106 CML patients and 190 healthy controls were evaluated for GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms. GSTM1 null (GSTM1(-)) genotype frequencies in CML cases and controls were 45.3% and 42.6%, respectively. GSTT1 null (GSTT1(-)) genotype frequencies were 44.3% and 18.4%, respectively. The frequency of the GSTT1(-) genotype among CML patients was significantly higher than in controls [odds ratio (OR) 3.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.08-6.00; P < 0.0001]. Individuals with the GSTM1(-) genotype did not have increased risk of CML [OR: 1.11; 95% CI: 0.69-1.80; P = 0.714]. The combined GSTM1(-)/GSTT1(-) genotype was significantly associated with risk of CML compared to the GSTM1(+) /GSTT1(+) genotype which was most frequent in both cases and controls [OR: 9.47; 95% CI: 3.61-24.87]. Similar findings have only been obtained in Turkish and Indian populations but not elsewhere. The GSTM1(+) /GSTT1(-) genotype was associated with a 2.5-fold increased risk compared with the GSTM1(-)/GSTT1(+) genotype, the second most frequent genotype (OR; 2.46; 95% CI: 1.17, 5.20), suggesting a complex interaction between GSTM1 and GSTT1. Our results indicate an association between the GSTT1(-) genotype, either alone or in combination with GSTM1(-) genotype, and risk of CML, suggesting a possible interaction between GSTM1 and GSTT1. These findings, which are possibly restricted to Turkey and India, warrant further research.

Abstract
DNA damage was evaluated by alkaline comet assay in peripheral blood lymphocytes of 115 coal-tar workers occupationally exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and 105 control subjects. The effect of polymorphisms of glutathione S-transferase (GST) genotypes on the DNA damage was assessed. The mean tail moment (TM) value in the coal-tar workers was significantly higher as compared to the control subjects (12.06 ± 0.55 versus 0.44 ± 0.31; P<0.05). No significant association (P>0.05) between the GSTT1 and GSTM1 genotypes and the TM values was found, however highest mean rank TM value was reported in GSTM1 null and GSTT1 null genotypes in both control and exposed subjects. Our results suggest that there is increased DNA damage in coal-tar workers due to PAHs exposure. Polymorphisms in GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes do not show significant effect (P>0.05) on DNA damage.

Abstract
In this study, the frequencies of CYP1A1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 gene polymorphisms were determined in 133 healthy individuals from Ouangolodougou, a small rural town situated in the north of the Ivory Coast. As appeared in several published studies, ethnic differences in these frequencies have been found to play an important role in the metabolism of a relevant number of human carcinogens. In the studied sample, the frequencies of Ile/Ile (wild type), Ile/Val (heterozygous variant), and Val/Val (homozygous variant) CYP1A1 genotypes were 0.271, 0.692, and 0.037, respectively. Frequencies of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes were 0.361 and 0.331, respectively. No significant differences were noted between men and women. In contrast to published data for Africans, CYP1A1 *Val Allele frequency (0.383) was significantly high (p < 0.001) in this specific population. For the GSTT1 null genotype, no differences were found between the studied and other African populations, the contrary to what occurred for the GSTM1 null genotype in relation to Gambia and Egypt.

Abstract
Polymorphisms in genes encoding detoxification enzymes have been suggested as susceptibility factors for many solid tumors. However, their association with hematological malignancies is controversial. A case-control study was done to determine the association between glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1), GSTT1, GSTP1, EPHX1, and p53 codon 72 polymorphisms as risk factors in 120 adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases and 202 healthy controls by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism techniques. Data were analyzed using χ(2) and conditional logistic regression model. None of the polymorphisms studied alone was associated with increased risk for AML. However, the frequency of GSTT1 null genotype was higher among controls (28.7%) than AML cases (21.6%), which showed a protective effect of the null genotype (odds ratio = 0.58, 95% confidence interval: 0.33-1.05, p = 0.07). In a combined analysis, both EPHX1 (His113His) and GSTP1 (Ile/Val) genes imparted a fourfold risk for adult AML but did not reach statistical significance (odds ratio = 4.22, 95% confidence interval: 0.992-17.99, p = 0.05). These findings suggest that the etiology of adult AML cannot be explained by polymorphism at a single locus, perhaps because of complexity involved in the metabolism of diverse xenobiotic compounds, and therefore, multiple gene-gene interactions should be investigated to predict the risk of AML.

Abstract
Glutathione-S-transferases, GSTM1 and GSTT1 play a significant role in detoxification and bioactivation of a broad range of xenobiotic compounds known to be mutagenic and/or carcinogenic. Deletion polymorphisms of these glutathione transferases (GSTM1 and GSTT1) predispose individuals to environmental carcinogenic compounds. Although a number of studies have shown the relationship between GSTM1 and/or GSTT1 deletion polymorphism and different cancers, these findings cannot be extrapolated to other populations due to intra- and inter-ethnic variability. In order to assess the impact of differential ethnicity on the occurrence of different cancers in local population due to GSTM1, or GSTT1 deletion polymorphism, 111 healthy male and female individuals of different age groups from Southern Punjab, Pakistan were genotyped using a multiplex polymerase chain reaction. From the results it is obvious that null alleles of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes were found in 45% and 23% individuals, respectively. In 5% of individuals' simultaneous deletion of both GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes were observed. Frequency of GSTM1 null allele is in concordance with those documented for Chinese, Caucasians, Mongolian, and Japanese populations. However, a significantly higher frequency for GSTT1 null was reported in Chinese and Japanese population as compared to Pakistani population. It is the first ever report on frequency of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null allele in Pakistani population which demonstrate the impact of ethnicity and provide basis for future epidemiological and clinical studies.

Abstract
Variants of glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) and T1 (GSTT1) genes have been implicated as risk factors for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, the genetic association studies that examined the relation between the null genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes and risk of developing CML gave conflicting or inconclusive results. In an attempt to interpret these results, a meta-analysis of all available studies (nine studies, with 757 cases and 1959 controls) was performed. In the meta-analysis the pooled odds ratios (OR) were estimated using random effects models. The heterogeneity between studies, the sources of potential bias, and the consistency of genetic effects across ethnicities were explored. Cumulative meta-analysis was also performed. Overall, the meta-analysis showed nonsignificant association between GSTM1 null genotype and CML (OR = 1.00 [0.83-1.20]) and lack of heterogeneity between the studies (p(Q) = 0.87). The association was also nonsignificant in Whites, East Asians, and Indians: OR = 1.38 (0.43-4.46), 0.94 (0.65-1.35), and 1.16 (0.74-1.82), respectively. However, GSTT1 null genotype was associated with increased risk of CML (OR = 1.57 [1.13-2.17]) and the heterogeneity between studies was significant (p(Q) = 0.04). In Indians, the association was significant (OR = 2.89 [1.56-5.35]) whereas in East Asians it was not significant (OR = 1.07 [0.74-1.54]). The combined GSTM1 normal/GSTT1 null genotypes produced significant association (OR = 1.95 [1.17-3.24]). Cumulative meta-analysis for GSTT1 gene showed an upward trend in risk effect, whereas the trend was downward in GSTM1. There was a differential magnitude of effect in large versus small studies. In conclusion, the accumulated evidence indicated an association between GSTT1 null genotype and CML.

Abstract
CYP3A5 is an important genetic contributor to inter-individual differences in CYP3A-dependent clinically important drugs of metabolism and also of various endogenous compounds and environmental contaminants. The CYP3A5*3 allele results in a truncated protein with loss of CYP3A5 expression and CYP3A5*6 is associated with lower CYP3A5 catalytic activity. The polymorphism analysis was performed by PCR-RFLP and some representative cases by direct sequencing. Our case control study involved 183 consecutive North Indian CML patients in chronic phase of disease and 208 geographically and racially matched healthy controls. PCR-RFLP was carried out to determine the frequency of CYP3A5*3 and CYP3A5*6 genotypes. The relationship between these allelic variants and risk of CML was assessed by means of odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence limits calculated by logistic regression. The frequencies of CYP3A5*1/*1, CYP3A5*1/*3, and CYP3A5*3/*3 genotypes in CML and controls were examined, and the quantitative comparison of the frequency distributions between CML versus control were performed, showing no significant differences among these comparison pairs (P = 0.88, 0.65, and 0.80, respectively). However, we did not find the CYP3A5*6 allele in any of the controls and leukemia patients. It is concluded that there is no association of this polymorphism with the risk of chronic myeloid leukemia.
