Association of Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase (DBH) Polymorphisms with Susceptibility to Parkinson’s Disease
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to explore the association between 2 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) gene (rs1611115 and rs732833) and the susceptibility to Parkinson's disease (PD). MATERIAL AND METHODS Polymerase chain reaction direct sequencing (PCR-DS) was used to test the genotypes of DBH polymorphisms in 95 PD patients and 100 healthy ex...
متن کاملLinkage studies of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) cDNA expression levels
The COMT and DBH genes are physically located at chromosomes 22q11 and 9q34, respectively, and both COMT and DBH are involved in catecholamine metabolism and are strong candidates for certain psychiatric and neurological disorders. Although the genetic determinants for both enzymes' activities have been widely studied, their genetic involvement on gene mRNA expression levels remains unclear. In...
متن کاملDopamine beta-hydroxylase deficiency
Dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DbetaH) deficiency is a very rare form of primary autonomic failure characterized by a complete absence of noradrenaline and adrenaline in plasma together with increased dopamine plasma levels. The prevalence of DbetaH deficiency is unknown. Only a limited number of cases with this disease have been reported. DbetaH deficiency is mainly characterized by cardiovascular...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) genes in cattle breeds
DNA from four cattle breeds was used to re-sequence all of the exons and 56% of the introns of the bovine tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) gene and 97% and 13% of the bovine dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) coding and non-coding sequences, respectively. Two novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and a microsatellite motif were found in the TH sequences. The DBH sequences contained 62 nucleotide chan...
متن کاملSerum dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity.
Dopamine-yS-liydroxylase, the enzyme which converts dopamine to norepinephrine, is released into the perfusate upon stimulation of the isolated perfused adrenal gland and after stimulation of the nerves to the isolated perfused spleen. This study was undertaken to determine whether dopamine-/?hydroxylase activity could be detected circulating in blood. By using a sensitive new enzymatic assay, ...
