Genotypic differences between southwestern Europe and Africa: a comparative study in eNOS, G6PD, GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes

Abstract

Aims/Context: The aim of the present work was to compare the genotypic frequency in genes involved in oxidative stress, in southwestern Europe and Africa. The genes under analysis were: endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) glutathione S-transferases mu (GSTM1) and theta (GSTT1).N/
