The Human Lipodystrophy Gene BSCL2/Seipin May Be Essential for Normal Adipocyte Differentiation
OBJECTIVE Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy type 2 (BSCL2) is a recessive disorder featuring near complete absence of adipose tissue. Remarkably, although the causative gene, BSCL2, has been known for several years, its molecular function and its role in adipose tissue development have not been elucidated. Therefore, we examined whether BSCL2 is involved in the regulation of adipocyte ...
متن کاملAdipoRon may be benefit for atherosclerosis prevention
Atherosclerosis has serious role in coronary arteries disease,so it is important to establish effective strategies for prevention or even treatment of atherosclerosis. Adiponectin, as one of the most abundant adipokines, has insulin sensitivity, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties. Disturbed adiponectin actions through its receptor, (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) may be involved in atheros...
متن کاملMAP3K1 May be a Promising Susceptibility Gene for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in an Iranian Population
Considering that MAPK (mitogen- activated protein kinase) signaling pathway has an important role in the progression of inflammatory cytokine secretion in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), we have recently investigated the reported genetic polymorphism from genome wide association study in MAP3K1 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1) in diabetes as an important member of MAPK signal...
متن کاملPHA stimulation may be useful for FDXR gene expression-based biodosimetry
Objective(s): Nowadays, ionizing radiation (IR) has a significant contribution to the diagnostic and therapeutic medicine, and following that, health risks to individuals through unexpected exposure is greatly increased. Therefore, biological and molecular technology for estimation of dose (biodosimetry) is taken into consideration. In biodosimetry methods stimulation ...
متن کاملO-8: Some Variations of the TSSK2 Gene May be Associated with Impaired Spermatogenesis
Background: Tssk2, a member of the testis specific serine/threonine kinase (TSSK) family, is expressed predominantly in the testis and crucial for the formation and function of the sperm cells in mouse. Targeted deletion of Tssk1 and 2 in male chimeric mice caused infertility due to haploinsufficiency of the genes. Therefore it is reasonable to postulate that mutations in its human homologue TS...
