چکیده
It has been suggested that the G894T NOS3, C677T MTHFR, A(-455)G FBB, and C(-1562)T MMP-9 genetic polymorphisms were implicated in the pathogenesis of CAD. We assessed their prevalence among

Association study between DNA methylation and genetic variation of APOE gene with the risk of coronary artery disease
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common health problem with a high rate of disability and death. Dyslipidemia and altered metabolism of Apo-lipoproteins are involved in the CAD pathogenesis. The current study investigated two common polymorphisms (rs429358 and rs7412) and promoter DNA methylation status of APOE in the Iranian CAD patients and control subjects. Two hundred angiographi...
متن کاملThe association between NFKB1 -94ATTG ins/del and NFKB1A -826C/T genetic variations and coronary artery disease risk
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is considered as a chronic inflammatory disease initiated from early childhood. Nuclear factor κB (NF κB) and κB1A (NF κB1A) are the key regulators of inflammatory responses. The NFKB1 -94ATTG ins/del and NFKB1A -826C/T polymorphisms may contribute to the development of CAD. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association of these polymorphisms wit...
متن کاملGenetic Polymorphisms of Estrogen Receptors in Iranian Women with Diabetes and Coronary Artery Disease
Estrogen might play an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus type 2. Estrogens inhibit diabetes via distinct mechanisms particularly by reducing both hyperglycemia and plasma insulin levels. Estrogen exerts its physiological effects mainly through estrogen receptors including α and β types. Estrogen receptors are found in many tissues that participate in the pathogenesis of ty...
متن کاملAnalysis of Two CDKN2B-AS Polymorphisms in Relation to Coronary Artery Disease Patients in North of Iran
Coronary artery disease (CAD) including myocardial infarction (MI) as its complication, is one of the most common heart diseases worldwide and also in Iran, with extremely elevated mortality. CAD is a multifactorial disorder. Twin and family studies at different loci have demonstrated that genetic factors have an important role in the progression of CAD. Many studies have reported a significant...
متن کاملA preliminary study of the association between the ABCA1 gene promoter DNA methylation and coronary artery disease risk
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common health problem in Iranian population. ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays central role in the efflux of the cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to liver. Inactivation of ABCA1 by epigenetic change such as DNA methylation may contribute to the development of CAD. The present study investigated the association between promoter DNA methy...
