MGST1 and cancer: These data are consistent with previous observations that (i) the human hmGST1 protein is active (in vitro) on various oxidized lipids (Mosialou et al., 1995); (ii) cancer cells overproducing hmGST1 are more resistant to n-tBOOH than their control counterpart (no overproduction of mGST1) (Johansson et al., 2010); and (iii) the sea cucumber mGST1 is also involved in the tolerance to lipid peroxidation (Zhang et al., 2017).
