Association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms & colorectal cancer in India.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is a critical enzyme in folate metabolism and involved in DNA synthesis, DNA repair and DNA methylation. The two common functional polymorphisms of MTHFR, 677 C-->T and 1298 A-->C have shown to impact several diseases including cancer. This case-control study was undertaken to analyse the association of the MTHFR gene polymorph...
متن کاملThe Polymorphisms in Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase, Methionine Synthase, Methionine Synthase Reductase, and the Risk of Colorectal Cancer
Polymorphisms in genes involved in folate metabolism may modulate the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), but data from published studies are conflicting. The current meta-analysis was performed to address a more accurate estimation. A total of 41 (17,552 cases and 26,238 controls), 24(8,263 cases and 12,033 controls), 12(3,758 cases and 5,646 controls), and 13 (5,511 cases and 7,265 controls) stu...
متن کاملA methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphism and the risk of colorectal cancer.
We examined the relationship of a common polymorphism (667C-->T) of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene with the risk of colorectal cancer in a case-control study conducted in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study. MTHFR genotypes were ascertained from blood samples among 144 men previously diagnosed with colorectal cancer and 627 controls. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) for t...
متن کاملThymidylate synthase and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms and toxicity to capecitabine in advanced colorectal cancer patients.
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of thymidylate synthase (TYMS) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) genotypes on toxicity in patients treated with capecitabine for advanced colorectal cancer and to determine the effect of these polymorphisms on the pretreatment levels of serum folate and plasma homocysteine. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Fifty-four patients with a diagnosis of metastatic colo...
متن کاملMethylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Polymorphisms in Iranian Patients with Glanzmann’s Thrombasthenia
Background: The most common polymorphisms identified in the Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene, C677T and A1298C lead to defective activity of this enzyme and increase the risk of venous and arterial thrombosis. There are limited investigations regarding the effects of thrombogenic polymorphisms on the clinical phenotypes of rare hereditary hemorrhagic disorders like Glanzmann's t...
