Evaluation of Apolipoprotein A5 Polymorphism in Coronary- Heart Disease Patients
Background and Objectives: Apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) gene is important in determining plasma triglyceride levels, a major cardiovascular disease risk factor. Mutation in this gene affected plasma triglyceride level. We looked for possible associations of the APOA5 gene polymorphism S19W with coronary heart disease (CHD) in a sample of Iranian population. Materials and Methods: A total of 7...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effect of caffeine in an early model of Parkinson's disease in rat: behavioral and histochemical evidence
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder affecting 1 to 3% of individuals over the age of 65 years. Both retrospective and prospective epidemiological studies have consistently demonstrated an inverse association between coffee consumption and PD. This study was designed to investigate the beneficial effect of caffeine in an early model of PD. For this purpo...
متن کاملبررسی همراهی ژن (rs1695) GSTP1 با بیماری آلزایمر دیررس در جمعیت ایرانی و ارتباط این پلی‌مورفیسم در میان‌کنش با APOE-ԑ4
Objectives GSTs are detoxification enzymes that remove excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) from cells. Evidence suggests that oxidative stress plays a role in several stages of the neurodegenarative disease like Alzheimer disease. Free radicals and similar molecules are classified as reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can cause oxidative modifications in the cell. In this study we have inves...
متن کاملDevelopment of a QFD-based expert system for CNC turning centre selection
Computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools are automated devices capable of generating complicated and intricate product shapes in shorter time. Selection of the best CNC machine tool is a critical, complex and time-consuming task due to availability of a wide range of alternatives and conflicting nature of several evaluation criteria. Although, the past researchers had attempted to select ...
