The development expression of alpha-, mu- and pi-class glutathione S-transferases in human liver.
The developmental expression of the alpha, mu and pi class glutathione S-transferases has been defined in human liver using radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry. Expression of alpha and mu class isoenzymes increased significantly at birth, while that of the pi isoenzyme declined during the first trimester. Mu-class isoenzymes (GST1 1, GST1 2, GST1 2-1) were expressed in hepatocytes but not in other liver cell types.
