ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Oxidative stress may be an important pathogenic mechanism in the obesity and metabolic syndrome. The aims of this study was to assess the possible association between the oxidative stress related Glutathione S-Transferase genes (GST-M1, GST-T1, and GST-P1) variants and the olanzapine-induced weight gain in Korean schizophrenic patients.METHODS:
We categorized 78 schizophrenic patients into two groups the more than 7% weight gain from baseline (weight gain > or =7%) and the less weight gain (weight gain or =7% compared to subjects with body weight gain 0.05). No significant difference in GST-P1 genotype and allele frequencies were observed between the groups (p>0.05). MDR analysis did not show a significant interaction between the three GST gene variants and susceptibility to weight gain (p>0.05).CONCLUSION:
These findings do not support a relationship between the genetic variants of three GST genes (GST-M1, -T1 and -P1) and weight gain in Korean schizophrenic patients receiving olanzapine treatment.
