pubmed:abstractText |
Diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia that produces dysregulation of cellular metabolism and result in excess free radical production and oxidative stress. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of multifunctional enzymes that work as antioxidants. Therefore, diminished expression of GSTs may result in a reduced body defense against oxidative stress, followed by development of diabetic complications.
