Abstract

Objective: The immunohistochemical staining characteristics of glutathione S-transferase (GST) alpha (GSTA), pi (GSTP), mu (GSTM4), and theta (GSTT1) and P53 were investigated in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) cases and normal laryngeal tissue from 46 patients. The relationships between expression of the GST isoenzymes and some clinicopathologic features were also examined.
