Interaction of GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 genotypes in determination of predisposition to atopic dermatitis

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2003 Oct;136(4):388-91. doi: 10.1023/b:bebm.0000010960.06583.20.

Abstract

The frequency of individual genotypes GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 and haplotypes was determined in patients with atopic dermatitis and healthy children. The actual frequency of some haplotypes was far below the theoretical value. Some haplotypes were associated with predisposition and resistance to atopic dermatitis.
