Glutathione S-transferase P (GSTP) is a component of a complex series of pathways that provide cellular redox homeostasis. It is an abundant protein in certain tumors and is over-expressed in cancer drug resistance. It has diverse cellular functions that include, thiolase activities with small electrophilic agents or susceptible cysteine residues on the protein to mediate S-glutathionylation, and chaperone binding with select protein kinases. Preclinical and clinical testing of a nanomolar inhibitor of GSTP, TLK199 (Telintra; Ezatiostat) has indicated a role for the enzyme in hematopoiesis and utility for the drug in the treatment of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome.
