Alcohol, Cirrhosis, and Genetic Predisposition
......................................... Received: 15-12-14 Accepted: 26-01-16 Abstract Liver cirrhosis is the third most common cause of death attributable to alcohol consumption throughout the world. More than 80% of chronic drinkers develop steatosis, and 20% to 40% develop other complications such as fibrosis, alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis. However, not everyone who chronically consume...
متن کاملImpact of Genetic Variants in Mir-122 Gene and its Flanking Regions on Hepatitis B Risk
MicroRNAs are small non coding RNAs that are involved in gene expression regulation. Mir-122 was reported to inhibit hepatitis B virus (HBV), but little is known about the role of mir-122 polymorphisms on HBV infection development. This present study aimed to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in mir-122 gene region with HBV infection. Study cases were HB...
متن کاملExpression of Human Cytokine Genes Associated with Chronic Hepatitis B Disease Progression
Background: Hepatitis viruses are non-cytopathic viruses that lead to the infection and pathogenesis of liver diseases as a result of immunologically mediated event. Objective: To investigate the expression of human inflammatory cytokines in chronic hepatitis B patients according to the severity of the infection. Methods: We recruited a total of 120 patients, 40 of whom from cirrhotic, 40 non-c...
متن کاملAntituberculosis drug-induced hepatitis: risk factors, prevention and management.
Apart from infectious or viral hepatitis, other most common non-infectious causes of hepatitis are alcohol, cholestatic, drugs and toxic materials. The most common mode that leads to liver injuries is antituberculosis drug-induced hepatitis. The severity of drug-induced liver injury varies from minor nonspecific changes in hepatic structure to fulminant hepatic failure, cirrhosis and liver canc...
متن کاملInfluences of Genetic Abnormality on the Risk of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Recent studies have provided evidence that common genetic variations could account for a proportion of leukemia in adult or children. To evaluate the contribution of candidate gene association studies to the understanding of genetic susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukemia we conducted a systematic review from published studies. The polymorphisms of genes encoding carcinogen-metabolizi...
