The association between polymorphisms in the CYP17 and 5alpha-reductase (SRD5A2) genes and serum androgen concentrations in men.
Prospective studies suggest that prostate cancer risk may be increased in association with high serum concentrations of free testosterone and androstanediol glucuronide (A-diol-g). Polymorphisms have been identified in the 17-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 gene (CYP17) and the steroid 5alpha-reductase type II gene (SRD5A2), two genes that are involved in the biosynthesis and metabolism of androgen...
متن کاملCYP17 promotor polymorphism and ovarian cancer risk.
The CYP17 gene encodes the cytochrome P450c17alpha enzyme, which functions at 2 different points in the steroid biosynthesis pathway, and is considered a candidate susceptibility gene for endocrine-related tumors. A T to C substitution polymorphism exists in the 5' promoter region of this gene, and creates an additional Sp1-type motif. Several studies have examined this polymorphism as a risk f...

Aims: The goal of this study was to investigate possible associations of some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the VDR gene (the FokI, BsmI, ApaI and TaqαI loci), and the CYP17 gene (the MspA1I locus), and variable numbers of TA repeats in the SRD5A2 gene, with prostate cancer (PCa), among Lebanese men. Materials and Methods: Blood DNA samples of 50 subjects with confirmed PCa and 79 a...

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...
