PCSK9 Associated Promoter Methylation Status in Patients with Hyperlipidemia
Background and purpose: Hyperlipidemia is one of the main risk factors for coronary artery disease and is defined as abnormal elevation of lipids or lipoproteins in the blood. Pcsk9 is the ninth member of the proprotein convertase family that binds to the LDLR on the surface of the hepatocyte, leading to degradation of LDLR in lysosomes which could cause hyperlipidemia. The present study aimed...
متن کاملthe 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...
15 صفحه اولMethylation Status of SMG1 Gene Promoter in Multiple Myeloma
Background: Epigenetic modifications, such as methylation can occur in multiple myeloma. SMG1is an important gene involved in cell growth which defect in methylation of its promoter leads to reduction of cell apoptosis and uncontrolled proliferation. In this study, we identified the methylation status of the SMG1 gene promoter in patients with multiple myeloma. Methods: Methylation status of S...
متن کاملWood smoke exposure and gene promoter methylation are associated with increased risk for COPD in smokers.
RATIONALE Wood smoke-associated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is common in women in developing countries but has not been adequately described in developed countries. OBJECTIVES Our objective was to determine whether wood smoke exposure was a risk factor for COPD in a population of smokers in the United States and whether aberrant gene promoter methylation in sputum may modify ...
متن کاملA preliminary study of the association between the ABCA1 gene promoter DNA methylation and coronary artery disease risk
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common health problem in Iranian population. ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays central role in the efflux of the cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to liver. Inactivation of ABCA1 by epigenetic change such as DNA methylation may contribute to the development of CAD. The present study investigated the association between promoter DNA methy...
