(exon 5) polymorphisms of the human orosomucoid 1 gene in Mexico
نویسندگان
چکیده
The human orosomucoid 1 gene (ORM1) codes an alpha-1-acid glycoprotein that has been classified as an acute-phase reactive protein, and a major drug-binding serum component, as well as an immunomodulatory protein with genetic polymorphisms. Evaluation of ORM variation through isoelectric focusing and immunobloting has revealed a world-wide distribution of the ORM1 F and ORM1 S alleles. We evaluated and examined the genetic characteristics of two Mexican populations that have different anthropo-

متن کاملOrosomucoid-1 Expression in Ameloblastoma Variants
Odontogenic tumors constitute a group of heterogeneous lesions of benign and malignant neoplasms with variable aggressiveness. Ameloblastomas are a group of benign but locally invasive neoplasms that occur in the jaws and are derived from epithelial elements of the tooth-forming apparatus. We previously described orosomucoid-1 protein expression in odontogenic myxomas. However, whether orosomuc...
متن کاملAssociation of Prolactin and Prolactin Receptor Gene Polymorphisms with Economic Traits in Breeder Hens of Indigenous Chickens of Mazandaran Province
Polymorphisms in 5’-flanking region of prolactin (PRL), exon 2 and exon 5 of prolactin receptor (PRLR) genesand its association with growth and egg traits were examined in breeder hens of Mazandaran native fowlsbreeding station. A single nucleotide polymorphism at site C-2402T and a 24 bp nucleotide sequence insertionat situation -382 in 5’-flanking regions of PRL gene were id...
متن کاملPolymorphisms within Exon 9, But Not Intron 8, of the Vitamin D Receptor Gene Are Associated with Asthma
Objective(s) Deregulation of the immune system through allied factors and cytokine responses are thought to be important contributors to the pathogenesis of asthma. Vitamin D3 and its nuclear receptor appear to be factors that maybe involved in regulating immune responses during the progression of asthma. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between polymorphisms in intron ...
متن کاملP-203: Investigating Association of HLA-G Gene Polymorphisms and Failed Implantation in Human Embryos
Background: HLA-G is a non-classical human leukocyte antigen expressed primarily in fetal tissues at the maternal-fetal interface. The unique structure of HLA-G molecule permits a restricted peptide presentation and allows the modulation of the immune system. There is now general agreement that HLA-G is an important immunotolerant molecule with the capability of inhibiting immune cell functions...
