Análise dos polimorfismos GSTM1 e GSTT1 em pacientes que desenvolveram leucemias agudas
Rohr, Paula; Delgado-Cañedo, Andrés; Paskulin, Giorgio Adriano; Schüller, Ivan; Nardi, Nance Beyer; Kvitko, Katia (2004) [Journal article](Análise dos polimorfismos GSTM1 e GSTT1 em pacientes que desenvolveram leucemias agudas) – A leucemia é uma neoplasia que acomete a medula óssea. No caso das Leucemias Agudas (LA), as células em proliferação são imaturas ... -
Aspectos ambientais e genéticos no desenvolvimento de leucemias
Kvitko, Katia; Rohr, Paula; Zucchetti, Giovana; Silla, Lucia Mariano da Rocha (2008) [Journal article]A etiologia da leucemia aguda (LA) pode ser explicada pela combinação de fatores genéticos e ambientais. Como exemplo das influências genéticas pode-se citar polimorfismos de genes de metabolização/detoxificação e, como ... -
CYP1A1, CYP2E1, GSTM1, GSTT1, GSTP1, and TP53 polymorphisms : do they indicate susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and non-small-cell lung cancer?
Gaspar, Pedro de Abreu; Moreira, José da Silva; Kvitko, Katia; Torres, Martiela Ribeiro; Moreira, Ana; Weimer, Tania de Azevedo (2004) [Journal article]Gene polymorphisms of phase I (CYP1A1 and CYP2E of cytochrome P,) and phase II (GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 of glutathione-S-transferase,) enzymes and the TP53 tumor suppressor gene were studied as markers in a sample of 262 ... -
CYP1A1, GSTM1, GSTT1, GSTP1 polymorphisms in afro-brazilian group
Kvitko, Katia; Gaspar, Pedro de Abreu; Torres, Martiela Ribeiro; Hutz, Mara Helena (2006) [Journal article]Gene polymorphisms involved in the metabolism of drugs and chemical carcinogens seem to be responsible for differences in the susceptibility of individuals to cancer, but genetic population studies are needed to characterize ... -
Investigation of potential biomarkers for the early diagnosis of cellular stability after the exposure of agricultural workers to pesticides
Alves, Jodel da Silva; Silva, Fernanda Rabaioli da; Silva, Gabrieli Flesch da; Salvador, Mirian; Kvitko, Katia; Rohr, Paula; Santos, Carla Eliete Iochims dos; Dias, Johnny Ferraz; Henriques, João Antonio Pêgas; Silva, Juliana da (2016) [Journal article]Agricultural workers involved in the harvest of tobacco crops are regularly exposed to large quantities of pesticides. In order to determine how this exposure to pesticides induces genetic alterations in these workers, ... -
Occupational exposure of workers to pesticides : toxicogenetics and susceptibility gene polymorphisms
Adad, Lucia Maria de Miranda; Andrade, Heloisa Helena Rodrigues de; Kvitko, Katia; Lehmann, Maurício; Cavalcante, Ana Amélia de C. Melo; Dihl, Rafael Rodrigues (2015) [Journal article]Farm workers are often exposed to pesticides, which are products belonging to a specific chemical group that affects the health of agricultural workers and is mostly recognized as genotoxic and carcinogenic. The exposure ... -
Susceptibility to DNA damage in workers occupationally exposed to pesticides, to tannery chemicals and to coal dust during mining

Working conditions in these sectors have potentially ... -
(TTTA)n polymorphism of CYP19 (aromatase gene) in Euro-and Afro-Brazilians
Kvitko, Katia; Nunes, Janice C. B.; Hutz, Mara Helena (2004) [Journal article]We investigated the polymorphic tetranucleotide repeat (TTTA)n located in the fourth intron of the CYP19 gene in two Brazilian populations. The frequencies of the five common alleles (A) in Euro- and Afro-Brazilians were, ...
