This study aimed to investigate the overall association between the oxidative stress gene including glutathione S-transferase (GST), epoxide hydrolase exon (EPHX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), cytochrome P450 system (CYP) and heme oxygenase (HO-1) polymorphism and the risk of COPD. Here, SOD1 is linked to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
