Investigation of GSTM1 and GSTT1 Polymorphisms in Obesity Patients Under Bariatric Surgery
In this study, we investigated the parameters associated with obesity such as body mass index (BMI), TSH, glucose, satiety blood glucose, triglyceride, and cholesterol levels, and deletion polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in 152 patients diagnosed with obesity in a Turkish population. Accordin...

Zusammenfassung: | In this study, we investigated the parameters associated with obesity such as body mass index (BMI), TSH, glucose, satiety blood glucose, triglyceride, and cholesterol levels, and deletion polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in 152 patients diagnosed with obesity in a Turkish population. According to the WHO data, in 2016, there are over 1.9 billion overweight individuals aged 18 and over in the world. Oxidative stress occurs as a result of disruption between the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the inactivation of these products by the antioxidant defense system and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and atherosclerotic vascular diseases (Finaud 2006; Bhattacharyya, 2014). Adipose tissue is one of the main sources for ROS formation, and fat accumulation is closely related to increased oxidative stress through nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), reduced form oxidase activation. |
