As the residue identity between MPGES1 and MGST1 is partly high for the TM1-TM2 loop (in this cytoplasmic loop, 5 out of 8 residues among K42-D49 are conserved between MGST1 and MPGES1), it may be the case also for MGST1 that this loop is not directly involved in GSH binding but serves other purposes
Extensive pre-clinic studies and clinical trials also are required for proving the druggable potential of these targets

Also, clinical studies done on patients with cervical cancer using pelvic radiation explained that Firmicutes-Proteobacteria ratio (F/P) reflects the severity of radiation toxicity, where it showed that patients with chronic radiation enteritis exhibited a reduction in Firmicutes and an increase in Proteobacteria
