Common Genetic Variant of insig2 Gene rs7566605 Polymorphism Is Associated with Severe Obesity in North India
Background: Obesity is a very common disorder resulting from an imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure, and it has a substantial impact on the development of chronic diseases. The aim of this study was to examine the association of INSIG2 (rs7566605) gene polymorphism with obesity and obesity associated phenotypes in North Indian subjects. Methods: The variants were investig...

متن کاملThe POLG Gene Polymorphism in Iranian Varicocele-Associated Infertility Patients
Objective(s) Varicocele is associated with impaired testicular function and male infertility, but the molecular mechanisms by which fertility is affected have not been satisfactorily explained. The aim of our study was to investigate whether or not the polymerase gamma (POLG) polymorphism is associated with Iranian varicocele patients. Materials and Methods We determined the POLG CAG repe...
متن کاملGenetic Polymorphism of GDF9 Gene in Iranian Moghani Sheep Breed
The families of TGF-β proteins are the most important growth factors in the ovary for growth and differentiation of early ovarian follicles. Three related oocyte-derived members of the transforming growth factor-β superfamily namely growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9), BMP15 and BMPR-IB have been shown to be essential for follicular growth and ovulation. Different mutations in the GDF9 gene ...
متن کاملNo association found between the Ala54Thr polymorphism of FABP2 gene and obesity and obesity with dyslipidemia in Japanese schoolchildren.
To investigate whether the Ala54Thr polymorphism of the fatty acid binding protein 2 gene is associated with obesity and obesity with dyslipidemia in Japanese schoolchildren, we analyzed 370 children with morbid obesity and 463 control children of normal weight. The allele frequencies did not differ significantly between the control group and the morbidly obese group. The odds ratio (95% confid...
