چکیده

Thus far, many studies have evaluated the correlation between MBL2 gene polymorphisms and hepatitis B infection. Tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used to investigate the relationship between MBL2 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection by comparing 996 chronic HBV infection cases to 301 acute infection controls. There was no significant correlation between rs2120131, rs4935047, and rs7095891 and chronic HBV infection. This suggested that the new SNPs within MBL2 were not associated with susceptibility to chronic hepatitis B in a Chinese Han population.

No association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in pre-mirnas and the risk of gastric cancer in Chinese population

Objective(s): Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that miRNAs contribute to various genetic and epigenetic modifications in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer (GC). Recent studies focused on the four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of pre-miRNAs including rs11614913, rs3746444, rs2910164, and rs2292832. It was suggested that these four SNPs were significantly associated with the risk ...

بررسی ارتباط پلی‌مورفیسم (rs1800872A/C) ژن اینترلوکین 10 با ابتلا به عفونت مزمن هپاتیت B

Background and Aim: Cytokines are believed to play an important role in the regulation of cellular immune response in hepatitis B virus infection. Interleukin 10 is a member of cytokine family. The overall expression of these molecules is mainly controlled by single nucleotide polymorphisms at specific sites on the promoter region of the Interleukin 10 gene. The aim of this study was to a...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms within Calcineurin-Encoding Genes are Associated with Response to Aerobic Training in Han Chinese Males

Calcineurin, which functions in calcium signaling, is expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle and has been linked to sensitivity to muscle strength training. It is also proposed to contribute to individual aerobic endurance. To investigate the relationship between calcineurin-encoding genes and aerobic endurance traits, 126 young-adult Han Chinese males were enrolled in an aerobic exercise tra...

Correlation Between Patatin-Like Phospholipase Domain-Containing Protein 3 Gene Polymorphisms and Liver Cirrhosis in a Chinese Han Population With Chronic Hepatitis B

BACKGROUND A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing 3 (PNPLA3) genes (rs738409) is associated with the severity of fibrosis and cirrhosis in patients with fatty liver disease. However, in a small group of Italian patients, there was no significant correlation between the rs738409 SNP and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection-associated liver cirrhosis. ...
