Polymorphism and Genetic Diversity of BAT25 Marker in Colorectal Cancer
By its frequency, colorectal cancer (CRC) has become a serious public health problem. BAT25 marker is included in the panel of five markers dedicated to the diagnosis of CCR microsatellite instability. The objective of this study was to evaluate the polymorphism and genetic diversity of the BAT25 marker in CRC cases in Senegal. This prospective study was performed on 22 CRC patients. After DNA ...
متن کاملDynamics of genetic instability in sporadic and familial colorectal cancer.
Genetic instability is a defining feature of human cancer. In colorectal cancer, two specific types of genetic instabilities have been identified: microsatellite instability (MIN) leads to a 1000-fold increase in the rate of subtle DNA changes, whereas chromosomal instability (CIN) enhances the rate at which gross chromosomal changes occur during cell division. In this paper, we develop a mathe...
متن کاملI Believe: Israeli Arabs – Lost in a Sea of Identities
This paper aims at making the dream of peace real in the Middle East, concerning the constant conflict over “the holy land,” thus building up a conceptual apparatus of checks and balances. For this hope to be fulfilled, a second thought regarding the internal legal-social problems of the state of Israel ought to be considered. Hypocrisy has led us to believe that political and social problems a...
متن کاملGenetic Analysis of Southwestern Iranian Patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever
Background: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of self-limited fever and serosal tissues inflammation. Methods: To evaluate clinical symptoms and common genetic mutations in southwestern Iranian patients with FMF, 20 unrelated patients were enrolled in this study based on clinical criteria. A panel of 12 common ME...
متن کاملassociation between genetic polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase with non familial colorectal cancer in iranian population
abstract: methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (mthfr) is a key enzyme regulating folate metabolism, which affects dna methylation and synthesis. one of the most important polymorphisms identified in the mthfr gene is c677t. mthfr activity is lowered in individuals with 677tt genotype. using pyrosequencing, we analyzed the mthfr genotypes in 118 colorectal cancer patients and 189 normal matched ...
