“…This frequency is nearly similar to the frequencies found in other studies that analyzed GSTP1 polymorphism. 12,33,36,37 38 Harries et al 27 and KoteJarai et al 19 that GSTP1 Ile/Ile is protective against development of PCa. Two other studies found that, the GSTP1 Ile/Ile genotype has been positively associated with PCa.…”

“…Two other studies found that, the GSTP1 Ile/Ile genotype has been positively associated with PCa. 22,36 Mao et al examined the possible effect modification by the GSTP1 polymorphism on smoking and PCa. They found that in individuals with the Ile/Ile genotype, smoking was strongly associated with an increased risk of PCa.…”

“…An A to G transition at nucleotide 313 in exon 5 of the GSTP1 gene, which replaces isoleucine (Ile) at codon 105 with valine (Val) within the active site of the enzyme, is associated with reduced enzymatic activity for certain substrates and altered thermostability [20,21]. While some studies have found an association between prostate cancer and the codon 105 variant Val allele of GSTP1 (Val 105 ) [22][23][24], others have failed to find an association [25][26][27][28]. Moreover, a recent meta-analysis of prostate cancer association studies involving the GSTP1 Ile105Val polymorphism calculated an overall odds ratio of 1.05 for the GSTP1 Val 105 allele [29].…”

“…Two studies of predominantly Caucasian population suggested a modestly elevated risk (OR ¼ 1.83 (1.19 -2.80)) 30 (OR ¼ 2.31 (1.17 -4.59)), 25 while three others failed to confirm these results. 21,22,33 No relationship between GSTT1 genotype and prostate cancer risk was found in a study of Japanese men. 34 …”
