Polymorphisms of the glutathione S‐transferase P1 gene and head and neck cancer susceptibility

Abstract: Background. Factors determining the individual susceptibility to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are still largely unknown. An imbalance between enzymes involved in the toxification and detoxification of (pre)‐carcinogens closely related to HNSCC, which may appear during smoking and alcohol consumption, may play a role. Genetic polymorphisms in glutathione S‐transferases (GSTs) often result in altered detoxification, which may contribute to individual susceptibility to HNSCC. Methods. We studied … Show more

“…Ophuis et al (19) found that HNSCC patients with the GSTP1 G allele containing genotypes (GA and GG) showed increased odds ratios for smoking compared with the wild type GSTP1 genotype. However, McWilliams et al (20) found no association between the GSTP1 genotypes and smoking status in HNSCC risk.…”

“…The 105Val form shows altered affinity and enzymatic activity for some substrates. Four (18%) (77,(88)(89)(90) of the 22 studies (18,20,21,25,31,33,63,69,73,77,80,82,84,(87)(88)(89)(90)(91)(92)(93)(94) NATs. Two NAT isozymes, NAT1 and NAT2, are polymorphic and catalyze both O-acetylation (activation) and N-acetylation (usually detoxification) of aromatic and heterocyclic amine carcinogens.…”

“…In a Dutch population, Oude et al, [77] observed homozygous GSTP1 BB genotypes in 12.3% patients with HNSCC (out of 235) and 13.6% in healthy controls (out of 285). No statistical differences were found for the GSTP1 AA(Ile/Ile) and GSTP1 AB(Ile/Val) or GSTP1BB (Val/Val) genotypes, which confirmed that GSTP1 polymorphism is not associated with altered susceptibility to HNSCC [77]. Similarly, Reszka et al [78] found no statistically significant risk of HNSCC in patients carrying GSTP1 105Val alleles in a Polish study population (OR=0.97; CI=0.59-1.58) [78].…”

“…The GSTP1 gene is positioned on chromosome 11 (11q13), and has the variant polymorphic genotypes GSTP1 AB (Ile/Val) and GSTP1 BB (Val/Val) along with the wild-type GSTP1 AA (Ile/Ile) [77]. The GST Pi polymorphism has a transition of adenine (A) to guanine (G) at nucleotide 313 in exon 5 and results in the substitution of isoleucine (Ile) to valine (Val) at position 104 in the amino acid sequence of the protein [61].…”
