The glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a superfamily of proteins that participates in detoxification. The GSTs were dividing into several classes including omega (GSTO), micro (GSTM) and theta (GSTT) classes. In human GSTO2, GSTM1, and GSTT1 are polymorphic. In order to study whether GSTO2, GSTM1, and GSTT1 polymorphisms are associated with increased gastric cancer risk in Iranian patients, the present case-control study was done.
