CRP gene haplotypes, serum CRP, and cerebral small-vessel disease: the Rotterdam Scan Study and the MEMO Study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It remains unclear whether C-reactive protein (CRP) is a serum marker for atherothrombotic disease or a causal factor in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We explored the association between CRP gene variations and cerebral small-vessel disease (SVD) in the Rotterdam Scan Study (N=1035) and the MEMO Study (N=268). METHODS Common haplotypes within the CRP gene were de...
متن کاملAssociation of C-reactive protein (CRP) gene polymorphisms, serum CRP levels and cervical cancer prognosis.
BACKGROUND C-reactive protein (CRP) is the prototypical biomarker of inflammation. Genetic variations within the CRP gene have been shown to be associated with alterations of CRP expression and prognosis in cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between four polymorphisms of the CRP gene, CRP serum levels, clinicopathological parameters of cervical cancer and...
متن کاملEndothelial nitric oxide gene haplotypes and risk of cerebral small-vessel disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Genetic influences are important in multifactorial cerebral small-vessel disease (SVD) and may act via endothelial dysfunction. Nitric oxide (NO) synthesized by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is a key mediator of endothelial function. We determined the role of 3 potentially functional eNOS polymorphisms (T-786C, intron 4ab, G894T) located toward the 5' flanking ...
متن کاملCRP and IL-1B Gene Polymorphisms and CRP in Blood in Periodontal Disease
Recent studies have suggested an association between periodontal disease (PD) and the systemic polygenic diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). These are thought to be associated because of interrelated environmental, epigenetic, and genetic risk factors. The involved candidate genes include the IL-1B gene, encoding the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β, and the CRP gene encoding the C-re...
متن کاملAssociation study of CRP gene polymorphisms with serum CRP level and cardiovascular risk in the NHLBI Family Heart Study.
Recent epidemiological studies have indicated that baseline C-reactive protein (CRP) levels may have value in prediction of cardiovascular risk. Using six tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) selected from our complete list of SNPs on the CRP gene, we investigated the association of CRP genotypes with plasma CRP levels and cardiovascular risk in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institu...
