ACDC/adiponectin polymorphisms are associated with severe childhood and adult obesity.
Common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ACDC adiponectin encoding gene have been associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in several populations. Here, we investigate the role of SNPs -11,377C > G, -11,391G > A, +45T > G, and +276G > T in 2,579 French Caucasians (1,229 morbidly obese and 1,350 control subjects). We found an association between severe forms of obesity ...
متن کاملIs Childhood Obesity Associated with Iron Deficiency Anemia?
Background: The prevalence of obesity is increasing and many countries are struggling with its high rate and serious complications. As a result of distinct diet in obese children, they may be susceptible to nutritional deficiencies in particular, iron deficiency. This study aimed to examine the relationship between obesity and iron indices. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 206 element...
متن کاملNAT2 and NQO1 polymorphisms are not associated with adult glioma.
Introduction Although various carcinogenic agents (e.g., ionizing radiation, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, N-nitroso compounds, dietary nitrosamines, organic solvents, unfiltered cigarettes, and pesticides) have been suggested as possible risk factors for brain cancer, none have emerged as dominant factors. The etiology of most of brain tumors continues to be poorly understood (1). A geneti...
متن کاملUncoupling protein 2 gene polymorphisms are associated with obesity
BACKGROUND Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) gene polymorphisms have been reported as genetic risk factors for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We examined the association of commonly observed UCP2 G(-866)A (rs659366) and Ala55Val (C > T) (rs660339) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with obesity, high fasting plasma glucose, and serum lipids in a Balinese population. METHODS A tota...
متن کاملCARD15/NOD2 polymorphisms are associated with severe pulmonary sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis and Crohn's disease are heterogeneous systemic diseases characterised by granulomatous inflammation. Caspase recruitment domain (CARD)15 is a major susceptibility gene for Crohn's disease, and specifically for ileal and fibrostenotic subtypes. The C-C chemokine receptor (CCR)5 gene has been associated with both parenchymal pulmonary sarcoidosis and perianal Crohn's disease. This stu...
