SEPTIN12 Genetic Variants Confer Susceptibility to Teratozoospermia
It is estimated that 10-15% of couples are infertile and male factors account for about half of these cases. With the advent of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), many infertile men have been able to father offspring. However, teratozoospermia still remains a big challenge to tackle. Septins belong to a family of cytoskeletal proteins with GTPase activity and are involved in various biolo...
متن کاملGRM7 variants confer susceptibility to age-related hearing impairment.
Age-related hearing impairment (ARHI), or presbycusis, is the most prevalent sensory impairment in the elderly. ARHI is a complex disease caused by an interaction between environmental and genetic factors. Here we describe the results of the first whole genome association study for ARHI. The study was performed using 846 cases and 846 controls selected from 3434 individuals collected by eight c...
متن کاملETS1 variants confer susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis in Han Chinese
INTRODUCTION ETS1 is a negative regulator of the Th17 differentiation gene and plays a central role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. We aimed to investigate whether polymorphisms in ETS1 confer susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in Han Chinese. METHODS We selected seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within ETS1 based on HapMap data and previous genome-wide assoc...
متن کاملGenetic variants in cell cycle control pathway confer susceptibility to lung cancer.
PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that common sequence variants of cell cycle control genes may affect lung cancer predisposition. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We explored lung cancer risk associations of 11 polymorphisms in seven cell cycle genes in a large case-control study including 1,518 Caucasian lung cancer patients and 1,518 controls. RESULTS When individuals with variant-containing genotypes w...
متن کاملGenetic variants confer susceptibility to urinary bladder cancer: an updated list of confirmed polymorphisms
Urinary bladder cancer is the 7 most common cancer in Western Europe (Ferlay et al., 2012). The most relevant risk factors are occupational exposure to aromatic amines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as well as cigarette smoking (Golka et al., 2012, 2009, 2004; Schwender et al., 2012). Moreover, polymorphisms of phase II metabolizing enzymes are well-known since decades to increase bladder...
