Association between Thrombophilic Gene Polymor-phisms and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss in Iranian Women
Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a common problem among couples, and acquired thrombophilia is the well-known etiology of RPL. The aim of this study was to establish the association between inherited thrombophilic gene polymorphisms and RPL. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 50 women with unexplained RPL and 50 parous women with no history of miscarriage (age range...
متن کاملMultiplex Tetra-Primer Amplification Refractory Mutation System Polymerase Chain Reaction to Genotype SNP8NRG221533 of Neuregulin-1 Gene
Schizophrenia is a severe neuropsychiatric disorder with symptoms such as hallucination, delusion and mental disorder. It is a complex disorder, in which genetic components play a crucial role in its pathogenesis. Among candidate genes for schizophrenia, Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) gene is the most important gene, association of which with the illness has been confirmed in several studies. Single nucl...
متن کاملAssociation between IL-19 gene (-513T/C (rs1028181)) polymorphism with preeclampsia in pregnant women Reffered to Vali-e-Asr Hospital in Kazerun in 2017
Background: Despite years of continuous research, maternal mortality due to preeclampsia is still a serious threat. Researchers believe that preeclampsia is a multifactorial disease and proposed many risk factors including immunological factors for it. Given the description of preeclampsia as an excessive response of the immune system, the relationship between preeclampsia and immunological cha...
متن کاملAssociation between Catalase Gene (CAT-262 C/T) Polymorphism and Preeclampsia in the South of Iran
Introduction: The cause of preeclampsia has not been identified so far; therefore, it accounts for a high percentages of maternal hospitalization. It seems that polymorphisms of genes encoding antioxidant system enzymes are effective in the pathophysiology of this disorder. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between CAT-262 C/T polymorphism of enzymatic antioxidant Catalase gene and ...
متن کاملIdentification of the rs797045105 in the SERAC1 gene by Whole-Exome Sequencing in a Patient Suspicious of MEGDEL Syndrome
Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) has been increasingly utilized in genetic determinants of various inherited diseases. We identified a new variation in SERAC1 as the cause of 3-Methylglutaconic Aciduria (MEG), Deafness (D), Encephalopathy (E), and Leigh-like (L), MEGDEL syndrome using WES. We found an insertion, rs797045105 (chr6, 158571484, C>CCATG), in the SERAC1 gene with homozygous genotype in ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Genome in Early Familial Coronary Artery Disease: A Case Report
Background and Objectives: Coronary artery diseases (CAD) are the most common cause of death in Iran and worldwide. Myocardial infarction (MI) is a complex multifactorial and the most severe type of CAD. Early onset MI in first degree relatives could be considered as an independent risk factor for CAD. This study was performed to investigate the genetic cause of early onset familial CAD. Cas...
