Androgen receptor CAG and GGN repeat length variation contributes more to the tumorigenesis of osteosarcoma
The androgen receptor (AR) is involved in the differentiation and growth of many cancers. We hypothesized that two microsatellite polymorphic variants, AR (CAG)n and (GGN)n repeats, were also associated with the development of Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and Osteosarcoma. In current study, we conducted two case-control studies in a Chinese population to investigate the possible relationship ...
متن کاملP-119: Survey of Genetic Alterations in Exon1 of Androgen Receptor Gene in Azoospermic Patients
Background Androgen receptor (AR) mediates androgen actions such as initiation and promotion of spermatogenesis and growth of accessory sex organs. There are two trinucleotide polymorphisms (CAG and GGN repeats) in exon1 of AR gene that are vary in length in population. The CAG and GGN repeats association with infertility is still unknown and this study is planned to assess the distribution of ...
متن کاملP-118: Triplet Nucleotide Repeats Expansion (CAG and GGN) of Androgen Receptor Gene in Infertile Patients with Abnormal Spermogram
Background s:648:"The infertility has recently been estimated to affect approximately 9% of couples worldwide. Androgens and a functional androgen receptor (AR) are essential for normal development of the male gender, and for maintenance of spermatogenesis throughout the life. Two polymorphic trinucleotide repeats, CAG and GGN, encoding for the amino acids glutamine and glycine, respectively ar...
متن کاملAssessment of Correlation between Androgen Receptor CAG Repeat Length and Infertility in Infertile Men Living in Khuzestan, Iran
Background The androgen receptor (AR) gene contains a polymorphic trinucleotide repeat that encodes a polyglutamine tract in its N-terminal transactivation domain (NTAD). We aimed to find a correlation between the length of this polymorphic tract and azoospermia or oligozoospermia in infertile men living in Khuzestan, Iran. MaterialsAndMethods In this case-control study during two years till 20...
متن کاملCAG and GGN Repeat Length Polymorphisms of Androgen Receptor Gene in Women with Breast Cancer: A Case-Control Study from South India
Aim: The Androgen Receptor (AR) is a ligand-dependent transcriptional activator and the AR gene contains a highly polymorphic trinucleotide repeat CAG and GGN in the first exon. Given the lack of information AR-CAG and GGN repeat polymorphism and its potential correlation with breast cancer in South Indian women, we conducted a case-control study to observe the effects of CAG & GGN repeat lengt...
