DNMT3A −448A>G polymorphism and the risk for hepatocellular carcinoma

Association between MTHFR A1298C polymorphism and hepatocellular carcinoma risk.

BACKGROUND Hepatocarcinogenesis is a complex process that is influenced by many factors. Several studies have investigated the relationship between MTHFR A1298C polymorphism and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk, but the results are inconsistent. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis covering a large sample size to address this controversy. METHODS Eligible studies were searched using Pub...

An let-7 KRAS rs712 polymorphism increases hepatocellular carcinoma risk.

KRAS, also known as V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog, acts as an intracellular signal transducer. The oncogenic KRAS mutation is an essential step in the development of many types of human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma. Here we aimed to investigate the relationship between KRAS rs712 polymorphisms and hepatocellular carcinoma susceptibility. Five-hundred-and-fo...

A novel functional polymorphism in the Cdc6 promoter is associated with the risk for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Cdc6 is essential for DNA replication and its deregulation is involved in carcinogenesis. To date, the biological significance of the polymorphism in Cdc6 promoter is still unknown. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the influence of the Cdc6 -515A>G polymorphism (rs4134994) on the individual's susceptibility to cancer and on the function of Cdc6. The Cdc6 -515A>G polymorphism was genotyped in...

the study of aaag repeat polymorphism in promoter of errg gene and its association with the risk of breast cancer in isfahan region

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...
