The influence of polymorphic GSTM1 gene on the increased susceptibility of non-viral hepatic cirrhosis: evidence from observational studies

Abstract: It is reported that glutathione S-transferase mu (GSTM1) polymorphism is associated with non-viral hepatic cirrhosis (HC). However, some studies showed different views. Therefore, in this paper, a meta-analysis was conducted to get a more comprehensive understanding of GSTM1 polymorphisms in non-viral HC susceptibility. The results showed that GSTM1 null was associated with the increased risk of non-viral HC (OR = 1.337, 95% CI 1.112–1.804, p = 0.005). Subgroup analysis of cirrhosis type revealed that GSTM1 nu… Show more

“…The CNV of ZDHHC11 and ZDHHC11B are associated with hepatoblastoma 53 and primary open-angle glaucoma 54 . The GSTM1 (glutathione S-transferase mu) locus is also a polymorphic locus associated with cancers, metabolism, and hepatic cirrhosis 55 . Thus, our study provides a fundamental resource for functional assessments to examine functional differentiation between/among polymorphic loci in humans.…”

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) play a significant role in the activity of drug-metabolizing enzymes and DNA repair enzymes in the body [17]. These SNPs not only affect the metabolism of chemotherapy drugs but also impact individual drug response [18].…”

“…17 In humans, it is reported that the GSTM1 null genotype is related to a group of diseases. [18][19][20][21] Various studies have been performed to explore the association between GSTM1 gene polymorphisms and CAD. [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] Of these, some studies reported that the GSTM1 null genotype was related to CAD in a smoking population, 24,26 while several reports showed no significant association between the two factors.…”
