Lipid disorders and mutations in the APOB gene.
BACKGROUND Plasma lipoproteins are important determinants of atherosclerosis. Apolipoprotein (apo) B is a large, amphipathic glycoprotein that plays a central role in human lipoprotein metabolism. Two forms of apoB are produced from the APOB gene by a unique posttranscriptional editing process: apoB-48, which is required for chylomicron production in the small intestine, and apoB-100, required ...
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 اولLow Frequency of C-MPL Gene Mutations in Iranian Patients with Philadelphia-Negative Myeloproliferative Disorders
Background Myeloproliferative disorders are a group of diseases characterized by increased proliferation of myeloid lineage. In addition to JAK2V617F mutation, several mutations in the c-MPL gene were described in patients with Philadelphia-negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders that could be important in the pathogenesis of diseases. The aim of present study was to investigate the fre...
متن کاملMyeloproliferative disorders and its associated mutations
Myeloproliferative Neoplasm (MPN) are a clonal disorder in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). MPN is categorized to 8 subclasses, including chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocytopenia (ET), primary myelofibrosis (PMF), systematic mastositosis (SM), chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL), chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL), and unclassified myelofibrosis disorde...
متن کاملFrequency of ApoB and ApoE gene mutations as causes of hypobetalipoproteinemia in the framingham offspring population.
Hypobetalipoproteinemia (HBLP) is characterized by plasma concentrations of apolipoprotein B (apoB) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) below the fifth percentile. Some forms of HBLP have been shown to be due to truncated forms of apoB-100. A total of 3873 subjects participating in the Framingham Offspring Study had LDL-C levels measured every 4 to 5 years throughout a 25-year perio...
