Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The aim of this review is to give a summary of currently available data on the relation between the CYP, the GST and the UGT biotransformation system and colorectal cancer obtained from clinical and epidemiological studies in humans. 25686853 2015
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE A member of the glutathione-S-transferase (GST) family, GSTP1, is an attractive candidate for involvement in susceptibility to carcinogen-associated colorectal cancer. 22938488 2012
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE While there was no statistically significant association between cigarette smoking and colorectal cancer risk among subjects absent of any at-risk GST genotypes, smokers possessing two to three at-risk GST genotypes exhibited a statistically significant increased risk of colorectal cancer compared with non-smokers (P = 0.0002). 21803734 2011
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We evaluated the risk of colorectal cancer associated with respective or combined glutathione S-transferase (GST) polymorphisms and assessed the interactions between genes and environmental factors in a case-control study in an Indian population. 20688591 2011
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE As GSTs participate in the metabolism of platinum metabolites, we also assessed the association between genetic variants in GST genes and survival of colorectal cancer patients who received treatment with oxaliplatin. 20017670 2010
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE High glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity may contribute to colorectal cancer prevention. 17071629 2007
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our findings suggest that the GST mu gene cluster mediates tumour characteristics and survival in patients with colorectal cancer. 16328000 2006
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In conclusion, the results obtained in this study clearly suggest that those susceptibility factors related to different GST polymorphic enzymes are predisposing for colorectal cancer. 15932063 2005
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our results suggest a possible positive association between lack of the GST-mu enzyme and colorectal cancer for non-smoking women (odds ratio 1.47, 95% confidence interval 0.80-2.70). 12944179 2004
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Molecular biomarkers, such as COX-2, oxidative DNA adducts and GST polymorphisms offer new prospects in the detection of early colorectal cancer, surveillance of high-risk populations and prediction of the clinical effectiveness of chemopreventive drugs. 12736102 2003
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Because GST enzymes are involved in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism, it has been postulated that genotype may modify colorectal cancer risk associated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposure. 10625170 2000
Malignant neoplasm of colon and/or rectum
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We conclude that GST polymorphisms alone do not predispose to colorectal cancer in northeast England. 10207630 1999
