چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولAssociation of STin2 VNTR Polymorphism in the SLC6A4 Gene with Increased Risk of MS Disease
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that is characterized by inflammation, demyelination and axonal injury. Although the etiology of MS disease is still unknown, many studies suggest that immune system dysfunction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of this disease. The serotonin serves as a mediator between CNS and the immune sys...
متن کاملAssociation of eNOS Gene Polymorphisms G894T and T-786C with Risk of Hepatorenal Syndrome
Background. There are no studies investigating the relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene polymorphisms and hepatorenal syndrome (HRS). Aim. The purpose of this study is to elucidate whether eNOS gene polymorphisms (G894T and T-786C) play a role in the development of type-2 HRS. Methods. This study was carried out in a group of 92 patients with cirrhosis (44 patients...
متن کاملAcute chest syndrome in adults with sickle cell disease.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is a frequent and potentially severe pulmonary illness in sickle cell disease (SCD). The aim of the study was to report the clinical features and outcome of consecutive ACS episodes in adult patients in a French SCD center. All patients were treated according to an uniform therapeutic protocol applying transfusion only in the more severe clinical form...
متن کاملAcute Chest Syndrome in Children with Sickle Cell Disease
Results: Our results revealed that the frequency of ACS episodes are age dependent, which occurred more frequently in young children, more than 4 years of age (n = 16) 57%. Fever and cough were the most frequent symptoms; (n = 26) 93 % and (n = 24) 86% respectively. Most of the cases experienced respiratory distress such as tachypnea (n = 24) 86%, chest retraction (n = 18) 64%, and decreased br...
