association between tnfaip3 gene polymorphisms and risk of allergic rhinitis in a chinese han population
tumor necrosis factor alpha-inducible protein 3 (tnfaip3) gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with the susceptibility to several immune-related diseases. here we investigated the effect of tnfaip3 gene polymorphisms on the risk of allergic rhinitis (ar) in a chinese han population. the case-control study included 540 ar patients and 524 healthy controls. genotyping for tnfaip...
متن کاملESR1 and ESR2 gene polymorphisms are associated with human reproduction outcomes in Brazilian women
BACKGROUND Important candidate genes involved in the ovarian response to exogenous FSH are the estrogen receptor genes (ESRs), since the effects of estrogens on follicle growth, maturation and oocyte release. It is known that some markers of ovarian stimulation can help to personalize the treatment, adjusting the dose of exogenous rFSH, thus preventing excessive wear of the patient. Inspired on...
متن کاملAssociation between single nucleotide polymorphisms of the osteoprotegerin gene and postmenopausal osteoporosis in Chinese women.
Osteoporosis is an important and common complex health problem, particularly in postmenopausal women. It is characterized by a reduction in bone mineral density (BMD) and a deterioration of bone microarchitecture with a consequent increase of fracture risk. The osteoprotegerin (OPG) gene is considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. We analyzed SNPs of the OPG gen...
متن کاملHLA-A gene polymorphisms contribute to osteoporosis susceptibility in postmenopausal Han Chinese women.
Osteoporosis is a common disease characterized by low bone mineral density, deterioration in bone microarchitecture, and increased fracture risk and is more prevalent in postmenopausal women. HLA is a complex gene family; previous studies have shown that it plays an important role in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis among Japanese and Greek populations. Prompted by these findings, this study wa...
متن کاملProstate cancer risk and ESR1 TA, ESR2 CA repeat polymorphisms.
BACKGROUND Experimental evidence has suggested that estrogen receptor alpha (coded by the gene ESR1) might increase prostate cancer risk, whereas estrogen receptor beta (coded by the gene ESR2) might reduce prostate cancer risk. METHODS We investigated the relationship with prostate cancer risk of both a TA repeat polymorphism in the ESR1 5' region, ESR1 (TA)(n), and with a CA repeat polymorp...
