Cytochrome P450 1A1, 2E1 and GSTM1 Gene Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Colorectal Cancer in the Saudi Population

Abstract: Background: The Saudi population has experienced a sharp increase in colorectal and gastric cancer incidences within the last few years. The relationship between gene polymorphisms of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes and colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence has not previously investigated among the Saudi population. The aim of the present study was to investigate contributions of CYP1A1, CYP2E1, and GSTM1 gene polymorphisms. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from CRC patients and healthy controls… Show more

“…CYP2E1 gene contains several genetic polymorphisms identified by RFLPs using restriction enzymes such as, Dra I, Rsa I, Pst I, and Taq I. These polymorphisms have been associated with various human cancers such as lung cancer, esophageal cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer and cigarette smoking-related hepatocarcinogenicity (Uematsu et al, 1992;Raunio et al, 1995;Wu et al, 1997;Lin et al, 1998;Saeed et al, 2013). CYP2E1 polymorphisms also had an effect towards drug reactions such as the pathogenesis of anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ATDH) in several populations Gupta et al, 2013).…”

“…The Saudi population may be similar to the Bahraini population but clearly differed from the Tunisian and Lebanese populations, which explains the significant differences between the study population and Tunisian and Lebanese populations. The positive assortative mating for the GSTM1 null genotype in this population may have a protective effect against common diseases in the study population or recently selected with changes in living standards, nutritional habits, and behavioral style during the last few decades, especially after the discovery and mining of petroleum in this area (Abu-Amero et al, 2006;Siraj et al, 2008;Saeed et al, 2013).…”

“…Recently, some metabolic polymorphisms are widely studied in order to understand the inheritance of cancer and individuals tolerance to tobacco carcinogens. These include cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) ile/val and glutathione-S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) null/present gene polymorphisms (Saeed et al, 2013). These genes encode such enzymes that play major roles in detoxification pathway of several carcinogens, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that are present in tobacco smoke (Shukla et al, 2013).…”
