Are exposure to pesticides and heterozygote genotype of GSTP1-Alw26I associated to Parkinson 's disease?
Exposure to pesticides is associated to PD, whose effect can be enhanced when combined with the heterozygote genotype of GSTP1-Alw26I. Also, large genetic and environmental studies considering tobacco use, alcoholism, GSTP1 and PD are necessary to confirm our findings.
Even though there is controversy about the prognostic relevance of VEGF, our results suggest that the factor is not suitable to decide prognosis in oral cancer. Endoglin may have a significant role in the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity and might be relatively more specific than commonly used endothelial markers.
