Genotype Frequencies of 50 Polymorphisms for 241 Japanese Non-cancer Patients.

Genotype Frequencies of Cyclooxygenease 2 (COX2) Rare Polymorphisms for Japanese with and without Colorectal Cancer.

Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) is an inducible enzyme synthesizing prostaglandins from arachidonic acid, which is thought to play an important role in colorectal carcinogenesis. Since the COX2 polymorphisms, if functional, may modify the carcinogenesis pathway, the associations between the reported polymorphisms and colorectal cancer risk were examined in a hospital-based case-control study. Six polym...

Genotype frequencies for polymorphisms related to chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in a Japanese population

BACKGROUND Genotype frequencies for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV)-related polymorphisms have not yet been reported for Japanese subjects. METHODS We analyzed 10 genotype frequencies for following polymorphisms associated with the development of CINV: serotonin 5-HT3 receptors (HTR3); neurokinin-1 receptors (Tachykinin-1 receptors, TACR1); dopamine D2 receptors (DRD2); and ca...

P-241: Association of ITPA Polymorphisms rs1127354 with Infertility

Background: Infertility is a relatively common problem that affects couples worldwide. It is estimated that approximately 1 in 6 couples will experience difficulties in reproducing, defined as a failure to conceive after two years of unprotected sexual intercourse. The molecular and genetic factors underlying the cause of infertility remain largely undiscovered. ITPA is an inosine triphosphatas...

Allele Frequencies and Genotype Frequencies

MDR1 haplotype frequencies in Japanese and Caucasian, and in Japanese patients with colorectal cancer and esophageal cancer.

The genotype frequencies of MDR1 T-129C, C1236T, G2677A,T and C3435T SNPs were compared in 154 healthy Japanese and 100 healthy Caucasians to provide basic information on the inter-ethnic differences of pharmacotherapeutic outcome. The variants were found at allelic frequencies of 5.5%, 65.6%, 16.6%, 40.6% and 40.6%, for T-129C, C1236T, G2677A, G2677T and C3435T, respectively, in Japanese, and ...
