GSTT1 - glutathione S-transferase theta 1 (null allele)<br />

The glutathione S-transferases are found in the liver and in the lymphocytes, and are involved in the detoxification of<br />

endogenous and exogenous substances. A defective GSTM1 gene reduces the enzymatic activity of the protein, which leads to a<br />

limited cellular detoxification.<br />

X DEL 26% Limited protection against oxidative stress / free radicals<br />

SOD2 - Superoxide dismutase 2, mitochondrial (rs4880)<br />

SOD2 encodes the superoxide dismutase enzyme 2 and it is involved in the degradation of reactive oxygen molecules (ROS), thus<br />

protecting the body against oxidative stress. Defects may affect the enzymatic activity of the SOD2 enzyme, resulting in a limited<br />

protection against the free radicals.<br />

C/C 20% Good protection against oxidative stress / free radicals<br />

C/T 53% Limited protection against oxidative stress / free radicals<br />

X T/T 27% Limited protection against oxidative stress / free radicals<br />
