Polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in symptomatic atherosclerotic patients with hypertension and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory condition and originates due to the accumulation of lipids in the innermost layer of the arteries. It is often related due to other underlying diseases, such as systemic arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus, which may be the cause or may contribute to a worse prognosis of atherosclerosis. Such diseases also hav.. Read More»

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of polymorphisms in the glutathione S-transferase genes GSTM1 and GSTT1 in patients with lens opacity (cataract). Peripheral blood samples were obtained from male and female patients (N = 23) with cataract. The GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphic regions were amplified by polymerase chain reaction, and the amplification products were electrophoresed.. Read More»
