Glutathione S-transferase M1 polymorphism and esophagealcancer risk:An updated meta-analysis based on 37 studies

AIM: To evaluate the relationship between glutathione S-transferase M1(GSTM1) polymorphism and susceptibility to esophageal cancer(EC).METHODS: A comprehensive search of the United States National Library of Medicine Pub Med database and the Elsevier, Springer, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases for all relevant studies was conducted using combinations of the following terms: "glutathione S-transferase M1", "GSTM1", "polymorphism", and "EC"(until November 1, 2014). The statistical analysis was performed using the SAS software(v.9.1.3; SAS Institute, Cary, NC, United States) and the Review Manager software(v.5.0; Oxford, England); crude odds ratios(ORs) with 95% confidence intervals(CIs) were used to assess the association between the GSTM1 null genotype and the risk of EC.RESULTS: A total of 37 studies involving 2236 EC cases and 3243 controls were included in this metaanalysis. We observed that the GSTM1 null genotype was a significant risk factor for EC in most populations(OR = 1.33, 95%CI: 1.12-1.57, P_(heterogeneity) < 0.000001, and I2 = 77.0%), particularly in the Asian population(OR = 1.53, 95%CI: 1.26-1.86, P_(heterogeneity)< 0.000001, and I2 = 77.0%), but not in the Caucasian population(OR = 1.02, 95%CI: 0.87-1.19, P_(heterogeneity) = 0.97, and I2 = 0%).CONCLUSION: The GSTM1 null polymorphism may be associated with an increased risk for EC in Asian but not Caucasian populations.

Serum Gamma-glutamyl Transferase Levels Predict Functional Outcomes after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Objective We aim to explore the potential association between serum gamma-glutamyl transferase levels and functional outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in a Chinese population. Methods A total of 386 aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients were included in the study from September 2007 to February 2015. Baseline serum gamma-glutamyl transferase levels and 6-month follow-up functional outcomes were determined. A poor outcome was defined as a modified ranking scale score of ≥ 3. The multivariable logistic model was used to analyze the relationship between serum gamma-glutamyl transferase and clinical outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Results The adjusted poor outcome rates of patients with gamma-glutamyl transferase levels of 〈 30 U/L, 30-50 U/L and ≥ 50 U/L were 16.7%, 19.6%, and 34.4%, respectively （P 〈 0.01）. The age-sex and multivariable adjusted odds ratios （95% confidence intervals） of poor prognosis comparing the top group （≥ 50 U/L） with the lowest group （〈 30 U/L） were 5.76 （2.74-12.13）, 6.64 （2.05-21.52）, and 6.36 （1.92-21.02）. A significant linear trend existed between gamma-glutamyl transferase level and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage prognosis. This association was also observed among nondrinkers. Conclusion Patients with higher gamma-glutamyl transferase levels were more likely to have a poor prognosis. Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase can be considered to be an independent predictor of functional outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Association of serum gamma-glutamyl transferase with treatment outcome in chronic hepatitis B patients

AIM:To investigate the association of serum gammaglutamyl transferase(GGT) levels with chronic hepatitis B infection and hepatitis B e antigen(HBe Ag) seroconversion.METHODS:A retrospective study was performed on clinical data collected from patients who had been positive for hepatitis B surface antigen for > 6 mo and who were antiviral-treatment na?ve(n = 215) attending the Hepatitis Clinic at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital between August 2010 and December 2013. Healthy individuals without liver disease(n = 83) were included as controls. Patients were categorized into four groups based on disease status as recommended by the European Association for the Study of the Liver:immune tolerance(IT; n = 47),HBe Ag-positive hepatitis(EPH; n = 93),HBe Ag-negative hepatitis(ENH;n = 20),and inactive carrier(IC; n = 55). Prediction of complete response(CR) based on serum GGT was also examined in EPH patients(n = 33) treated for 48 wk with nucleos(t)ide analogue(NA) therapy,including lamivudine plus adefovir combination therapy(n = 20) or entecavir monotherapy(n = 13). CR was defined as a serum hepatitis B virus DNA level < 500 copies/m L and HBe Ag seroconversion by 48 wk of treatment. RESULTS:Serum GGT levels were significantly increased in EPH and ENH patients relative to the IT,IC,and healthy control groups(P < 0.01 for all). However,no significant difference in serum GGT levels was found between the EPH and ENH groups. Baseline serum GGT levels were significantly higher in patients who achieved CR(7/33; 21.2%) compared to patients in the non-CR group(26/33; 78.8%; P = 0.011). In addition,the decline in serum GGT was greater in CR patients compared to non-CR patients after 24 wk and 48 wk of treatment(P = 0.012 and P = 0.008,respectively). The receiver operating characteristic curve yielded a sensitivity of 85.71% and a specificity of 61.54% at a threshold value of 0.89 times the upper limit of normal for baseline serum GGT in the prediction of CR following NA therapy. CONCLUSION:Serum GGT is significantly elevated in EPH and ENH patients and is a potential biomarker for the prediction of HBe Ag seroconversion following NA therapy.

Gamma-glutamyl transferase and cardiovascular risk in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease:The Gut and Obesity Asia initiative

BACKGROUND Gamma-glutamyl transferase(GGT)is associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease(CVD)in the general population.AIM To identify the association of baseline GGT level and QRISK2 score among patients with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).METHODS This was a retrospective study involving 1535 biopsy-proven NAFLD patients from 10 Asian centers in 8 countries using data collected by the Gut and Obesity in Asia(referred to as“GO ASIA”)workgroup.All patients with available baseline GGT levels and all 16 variables for the QRISK2 calculation(QRISK2-2017;developed by researchers at the United Kingdom National Health Service;https://qrisk.org/2017/;10-year cardiovascular risk estimation)were included and compared to healthy controls with the same age,sex,and ethnicity.Relative risk was reported.QRISK2 score>10%was defined as the high-CVD-risk group.Fibrosis stages 3 and 4(F3 and F4)were considered advanced fibrosis.RESULTS A total of 1122 patients(73%)had complete data and were included in the final analysis;314(28%)had advanced fibrosis.The median age(interquartile range[IQR])of the study population was 53(44-60)years,532(47.4%)were females,and 492(43.9%)were of Chinese ethnicity.The median 10-year CVD risk(IQR)was 5.9%(2.6-10.9),and the median relative risk of CVD over 10 years(IQR)was 1.65(1.13-2.2)compared to healthy individuals with the same age,sex,and ethnicity.The high-CVD-risk group was significantly older than the low-risk group(median[IQR]:63[59-67]vs 49[41-55]years;P<0.001).Higher fibrosis stages in biopsy-proven NAFLD patients brought a significantly higher CVD risk(P<0.001).Median GGT level was not different between the two groups(GGT[U/L]:Median[IQR],high risk 60[37-113]vs low risk 66[38-103],P=0.56).There was no correlation between baseline GGT level and 10-year CVD risk based on the QRISK2 score(r=0.02).CONCLUSION The CVD risk of NAFLD patients is higher than that of healthy individuals.Baseline GGT level cannot predict CVD risk in NAFLD patients.However,advanced fibrosis is a predictor of a high CVD risk.

Oxidative stress-elevated high gamma glutamyl transferase levels, and aging, intake of tropical food plants, migration and visual disability in Central Africans

·AIM:To investigate the independent pathogenic role of high serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels, sociodemographic data, dietary and environmental risk factors for visual disability (VD). ·METHODS:This was a case-control study, run in 200 black Congolese patients managed in Saint Joseph Hospital Ophthalmology Division from Kinshasa town. Logistic regression model was used to identify determinants of VD (n = 58) among sex, age, cigarette smoking, alcohol abuse, rural-urban migration, education levels, aging ≥60 years, intake of red Beans, Safou fruit and Taro leaves, lipid profile, residence, socioeconomic status, and GGT. ·RESULTS:After adjusting for confounding factors, we identified migration (OR=3.7 95% CI:1.2-11.3; P =0.023), low education level (OR=3.1 95% CI 1.1-8.5; P =0.026), no intake of Safou fruit (OR=34.2 95% CI 11.5-102; P < 0.0001), age ≥60 years (OR=2.5 95% CI 1.01-6.5; P = 0.049), and serum GGT ≥10U/L (OR=3.6 95% CI 1.3-9.6; P = 0.012) as the significant and independent determinants of VD. ·CONCLUSION:VD appears as a major public health problem in Central Africa to be prevented or delayed by control of migration, lifestyle changes, antioxidant supplements, appropriate diet, nutrition education, and blocking of oxidative stress.

The Micro-determination of Serum Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase

The method of serum gamma-glutamyl transferase colorimeter assay was modified by changing the wave length from 420 nm to 400 nm, the incubated temperature from 37℃ to 50℃, the sample amount from 30 μl to 6μl. The modified method was proved to be more sensitive, with CV of intra-group being 2. 06% and accuracy 97. 4%. The method is suitable for clinical application with small-amount blood samples collected frorri earlobe or finger tip.

Effect of <i>Lactobacillus brevis</i>SBC8803 on Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase in Japanese Habitual Drinkers: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in Japanese habitual drinkers was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Lactobacillus brevis SBC8803 to alleviate adverse effect of alcohol. Subjects who drank habitually and had moderately higher levels of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) (50 - 100 IU/L) were enrolled. The levels of transaminases in these subjects were almost within normal levels (aspartate transaminase (AST) <30 IU/L and alanine transaminase (ALT) <40 IU/L). Either the capsules containing placebo (n = 23) or 130 mg (4.0 × 1010 colony-forming units) of live L. brevis SBC8803 (n = 22) per day were administered for the continuous eight weeks (56 days). During the period, the subjects both in test group and placebo groups have kept each drinking behavior as usual. Regarding lipid metabolism, triacylglycerol (TG) levels in the male test group significantly decreased at week 4 as compared with week 0. Biomarkers of hepatocytes-damage;AST and ALT levels showed no significant differences between the pla- cebo and test groups at both weeks 4 and 8. Oxidative stress marker;GGT at weeks 4 was significantly lower in the test group than that in the placebo group (p = 0.017), but not at weeks 8. However, taking a reduced rate of GGT at weeks 8 comparing with that at week 0, that in the test group showed larger value comparing with that in the placebo group. These data about TG and GGT suggest that, although efficacy of L. brevis SBC8803 is limited in this study, intake of the probiotic may alleviate alcoholic influence in lipid metabolism and oxidative stress.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of a phenanthrene-degrading strain isolated from oil-contaminated soil

Bacterium strain EVA17 was isolated from an oil-contaminated soil, and identified as Sphingomonas sp. based on analysis of 16S rDNA sequence,cellular fatty acid composition and physiological-chemical tests. The salicylate hydroxylase and catechol 2,3-dioxygenase(C23O) were detected in cell-free lysates, suggesting a pathway for phenanthrene catabolism via salicylate and catechol. Alignment showed that both of the C23O and GST genes of the strain EVA17 had high similarity with homologues of strains from genus Sphingomonas. The phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA and C23O gene sequence indicated that EVA17 should be classified into genus Sphingomonas, although the two phylogenetic trees were slightly different from each other. The results of co-amplification and sequence determination indicated that GST gene should be located upstream of the C23O gene.

Serum Gamma-glutamyl Transferase Concentration Within the Reference Range is Related to the Coronary Heart Disease Risk Prediction in Korean Men： Analysis of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey （V-1, 2010 and V-2, 2011）

Background：Limited data exist on the association of serum gamma-glutamyl transferase （GGT） level within the reference range with the increased risk of coronary heart disease （CHD） prediction in men.The study examined the association between serum GGT concentration within the reference range and the CHD risk prediction in Korean men.Methods：The study employed data from Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey （V-1,2010 and V-2,2011） where a total of 1301 individuals were analyzed.A 10-year CHD risk prediction was computed using the Framingham Risk Score （FRS） modified by the National Cholesterol Education Program （NCEP） Adult Treatment Panel Ⅲ （ATP Ⅲ）.Results：Positive correlations were established between log-transformed GGT concentration and FRS （r =0.237,P 〈 0.001）.After adjustment of body mass index,the amount of alcohol intake and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol,the odds ratio （95% confidence interval） for intermediate risk and beyond of 10-year CHD prediction （10-year risk ≥10%） with lowest quartile of participants was 1.21 （0.78-1.87） for second quartiles,1.39 （0.88-2.21） for third quartiles and 2.03 （1.23-3.34） for highest quartiles.Conclusions：Higher serum GGT within its reference range was significantly correlated with a 10-year CHD risk prediction estimation using NCEP ATP Ⅲ in Korean men.

血清镁离子浓度与直肠癌患者谷氨酰转肽酶的关系

直肠癌患者血清镁离子(Mg^(2+))浓度对γ-谷氨酰转肽酶(γ-GT)的影响尚不明确,收集分析临床数据,Mg^(2+)浓度不呈正态分布(D=0.737,P<0.05),按照中位数分组,比较不同组间临床病理特征的差异,用局部加权散点平滑(LOWESS)、分段线性回归方法,拟合血清Mg^(2+)浓度与γ-GT的关系。结果发现,与Mg^(2+)浓度小于0.92 mmol/L组的直肠癌患者比较,Mg^(2+)浓度≥0.92 mmol/L组的γ-GT和血清总胆固醇较高(P均<0.05)。LOWESS的结果表明,原始数据中血清Mg^(2+)浓度的两个变化点分别为0.92 mmol/L和0.99 mmol/L,自然对数转换的数据中血清Mg^(2+)浓度的另外两个变化点分别为-0.167和-0.01。利用原始数据建立的两段线性回归模型表明,血清Mg^(2+)浓度的变化点为0.98 mmol/L,Mg^(2+)浓度<0.98 mmol/L对γ-GT有正向影响,Mg^(2+)≥0.98 mmol/L时有负向影响。另一个使用自然对数转换数据的两段线性回归模型显示,血清Mg^(2+)浓度的变化点为0.01,其中Mg^(2+)浓度的自然对数<0.01对γ-GT有正向影响,当Mg^(2+)浓度的自然对数≥0.01时则有负向影响。用原始数据LOWESS回归的2个拐点,即0.92 mmol/L和0.99 mmol/L的Mg^(2+)浓度,进行三段线性回归分析,结果显示,<0.980 mmol/L的Mg^(2+)浓度,对γ-GT的影响是正向的,且与<0.929 mmol/L的Mg^(2+)浓度区间的系数不同,影响程度不同,而在≥0.980 mmol/L的Mg^(2+)浓度区间,对γ-GT的影响是负向的,此外,用对数转换数据LOWESS的2个拐点进行的三段线性回归,也显示Mg^(2+)浓度的自然对数以-0.020为分界点时,对γ-GT的影响方向是相反的,但三段线性回归模型均没有统计学意义,总之,具有较高Mg^(2+)浓度的直肠癌患者,其γ-GT的水平也较高,Mg^(2+)浓度对γ-GT的影响存在拐点效应,为γ-GT的关联因素研究提供了基础。

目的探究血清γ-谷氨酰转移酶与血小板(GGT/PLT)比值和急性STEMI患者心力衰竭发病的关系研究。方法回顾性选取沧州市人民医在2021年1月—2023年1月间收治的ST段急性抬高型心肌梗死(STEMI)患者136例,根据患者经皮冠状动脉介入治疗后心力衰竭情况分为观察组(70例,心力衰竭),参照组(66例,无心力衰竭)。两组患者均采用全自动血细胞分析仪和流式细胞仪检测入院次日PLT,进行血清GGT测定,计算GGT/PLT比值;收集所有患者临床资料并进行比较,多因素分析急性STEMI患者经皮冠状动脉介入治疗后心力衰竭的影响因素,用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线分析血清GGT/PLT比值对急性STEMI患者经皮冠状动脉介入治疗后心力衰竭的预测价值。结果观察组GGT/PLT比值高于参照组(P<0.05)。两组性别、罪犯血管、右冠状动脉、最大支架直径、置入支架数目、置入支架长度、术后24 h临床资料、左心室收缩末期容积、术后24 h实验室指标、低密度脂蛋白、血尿素氮、血小板计数、甘油三酯、总胆固醇等一般资料比较差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。观察组NLR、PLR、血肌酐高于参照组(P<0.05)。经二元Logistic回归分析结果显示,NLR、PLR、血肌酐、GGT/PLT比值均是急性STEMI患者经皮冠状动脉介入治疗后心力衰竭的独立危险因素(P<0.05)。ROC曲线结果显示,GGT/PLT比值预测急性STEMI患者经皮冠状动脉介入治疗后心力衰竭的灵敏度为84.21%,特异度为98.70%,曲线下面积(AUC)为0.891(P<0.05)。结论血清GGT/PLT比值与急性STEMI患者经皮冠状动脉介入治疗后心力衰竭发生风险相关,是发生心力衰竭的独立危险因素,临床通过检测GGT/PLT比值可较好预测患者心力衰竭发生情况。

γ-谷氨酰转移酶与白蛋白比值对经皮经肝胆道引流治疗恶性梗阻性黄疸的生存预测价值

目的分析γ-谷氨酰转移酶与白蛋白比值(GAR)与经皮经肝胆道引流术(PTBD)治疗恶性梗阻性黄疸患者生存预后的关系。方法对2019年1月—2022年3月联勤保障部队第987医院因恶性梗阻性黄疸接受姑息性PTBD治疗的104例患者进行回顾性分析。所有患者均有随访记录,主要终点是总生存期(OS)。结果死亡患者年龄较大,PTBD术后7 d内总胆红素水平较高,术前血小板计数绝对计数和GAR比值更高,而术前ALB水平和预后营养指数(PNI)较低,且接受进一步治疗的患者比例更低(P<0.05)。经受试者工作特征曲线分析,GAR结合PNI预测总生存率的曲线下面积(AUC)为0.898(95%CI:0.834~0.952,P<0.001),灵敏度和特异度为90.9%和70.8%,显著优于PNI单独预测的AUC值。术前PNI<39.57和GAR≥1.045是经PTBD治疗的恶性梗阴性黄疸患者在预后的预测因子(P<0.05)。Kaplan-Meier曲线和对秩数分析结果显示,GAR≥1.045的患者OS相较于GAR<1.045的患者更短(log-rank=28.292,P<0.001),且PNI<39.57的患者OS相较于PNI≥39.57的患者更短(log-rank=15.389,P<0.001)。在PNI≥39.57的患者中,GAR≥1.045患者OS相较于GAR<1.045患者也更短(log-rank=10.614,P=0.001)。结论术前GAR可作为接受姑息性PTBD治疗的恶性梗阻性黄疸患者生存预后的有力预测指标,且可补充PNI额外的预后信息。
