Ace Gene Polymorphism
Discrepancies in angiotensin-1 converting enzyme (ACE) allele genetic susceptibility with disease etiology have been attributed to ethnic differences. We investigated ACE gene polymorphism of the multiethnic Malaysian population by utilizing nested polymerase chain reaction. Allelic frequency of 0.65 and 0.35 for I and D allele, respectively in the pooled population was comparable with other As...
متن کاملVDBP Gene Polymorphism in COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease which genetic and environmental factors play an important role in COPD development. VDBP (Vitamin D Binding Protein ) gene might be responsible for COPD development. The purpose of this study to investigate the possible effect of VDBP on development of COPD. We studied VDBP genotypes in 75 COPD patients, 36 smoker healthy subjects and 19...
متن کاملACE Gene Polymorphism and Coronary Artery Disease
Great personal enthusiasm, temptation, technical efforts, and complex mathematical equations characterize the developing research field of newly identified gene polymorphisms and their impact on a variety of cardiovascular diseases. After the first publication of Cambien and coworkers1 in Nature in 1992, who reported that the D/D angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) polymorphism is a potent risk ...
متن کاملpolymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ace) gene and ace activity in type 2 diabetic patients
diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial disease. it has recently been shown that an insertion (i)/deletion (d) polymorphism exists in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ace) gene that can affect the serum ace level. there are three genotypes: dd, di, and ii, with the ace level being highest in dd, intermediate in di, and lowest in ii. in the present investigation, 170 patients with type 2 diabete...
متن کاملACE Gene Polymorphism in Premenopausal Breast Cancer Patients
The association between the polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene and breast cancer risk has been extensively studied, however , the studies about the prognostic factors and ACE gene polymorphism are limited in number. Our aims were to analyze the distribution of the insertion/deletion (I/D) polymor-phism of the ACE gene in Turkish premenopausal patients with breast cance...
