Effect of Cytokine Signaling 3 Gene Polymorphisms in Childhood Obesity
OBJECTIVE Although polymorphisms in suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) was reported to be related to obesity, Metabolic syndrome (MS), and type 2 diabetes mellitus in various adult studies, there is a lack of data in children. In this study, we examined eight reported polymorphisms of SOCS3 in obese Turkish children and adolescent with and without MS and compared the results with that o...
متن کاملCytokine Gene Polymorphisms in Iranian Patients with Beta-Thalassemia Major
Background: β-thalassemia as a hereditary disease is defined as defective synthesis of β-globin chains, resulting in erythropoiesis abnormalities and severe anemia. Different studies have shown that cytokines and cytokine gene polymorphisms play a major role in the pathogenesis of β-thalassemia. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the promoter region or other regulatory sequences ...
متن کاملInfluence of proinflammatory cytokine gene polymorphism on childhood obesity
BACKGROUND Obesity development is a complex process which can be influenced by genetic predisposition modified by environmental factors. Nowadays, the problem of overweight and obesity, including related complications, occurs in increasingly younger children. Thus, there is a need for new genetic markers of increased risk of excessive body mass. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to e...
متن کاملCytokine gene polymorphisms in sarcoidosis.
BACKGROUND Sarcoidosis is a disease characterized by granuloma formation in many organs, but mostly in lung and lymph nodes. The immunopathogenic background of the disease is probably based on disregulation of immune response to different antigens. The imbalance of immune reactivity might be influenced by genetic background. In our study, we have investigated cytokine genetic polymorphisms in s...
متن کاملThe role of melanocortin 3 receptor gene in childhood obesity.
OBJECTIVE Melanocortin 3 receptor (MC3R) plays a critical role in weight regulation of rodents, but its role in humans remains unclear. The objective of this study was to identify genetic variants of the MC3R gene and determine its association with childhood obesity. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We screened 201 obese children for MC3R gene mutations with anthropometric measurements, blood test...
