association of two polymorphisms in msh2 and xrcc1 genes with multiple sclerosis in iranian population
Authors
abstract
introduction: to protect genomes of all organisms from internal and external damages and maintain the genome integrity and the continuity of life, repair system has been developed in all living cells. defects in repair system are responsible for various kinds of disease including cancers and neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (ms). the relationship between various components of the repair system and ms has been confirmed by investigations on separate cohorts in independent research. the main aim of this study was to discover the genetic association of two functional polymorphisms of rs1799782 in xrcc1 and rs2303425 in msh2 genes as the key players in dna repair system; with ms. methods: the genotypes of 105 ms patients and 102 age and sex matched healthy controls for these polymorphisms were determined by a pcr-rflp technique. results: genotype and allele frequencies of rs1799782 in patients with ms compared to the control group demonstrated a significant difference and a possible role for this polymorphism in ms pathogenesis (p value (0.02) and or (3.4)). the rs2303425 polymorphism showed no significant correlation (p value = 0.41 and or=1.5) with the risk of ms in iranian population. conclusion: our results suggest a possible role for repair system genes and their significance in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.

full textAssociation of Two Polymorphisms in H2B.W Gene with Azoospermia and Severe Oligozoospermia in An Iranian Population
Background During spermatogenesis, the H2B family, member W (H2B.W) gene, encodes a testis specific histone that is co-localized with telomeric sequences and has the potential role to mediate the sperm-specific chromatin remodeling. Previously H2B.W genetic variants were reported to be involved in susceptibility to spermatogenesis impairment. In the present study, two single nucleotide polymorp...

Objective(s): Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in both male and female worldwide. The main cause of CAD is the atherosclerosis of coronary arteries, which is, mostly caused by genetic alteration. 50% of such cases occur in mitotic cells where single-strand breaks occur spontaneously or due to ionizing radiation. X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1) as a ...
full textAssociation of CD24V/V Genotype with Susceptibility and Progression of Multiple Sclerosis in Iranian Population
A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in CD24 has been associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) in a population based study. This SNP results in the replacement of alanine (CD24A) by valine (CD24V) at amino acid 57 in the resulting polypeptide chain. In the current study, the genotyping of this SNP and its contribution to MS in 217 patients and 200 healthy individuals of an Iranian population w...

Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease of central nervous system that mainly causes lesions or plaques in the spinal cord and brain. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relation between c.-813C>T (rs2070744) and c.894G>T (rs1799983) polymorphisms of NOS3 gene and MS in Iranian patients. Methods: A total of 78 patients with MS and 80 healthy controls were screened for NOS3 ...
full textAssociation Between MTHFR Genetic Variants and Multiple Sclerosis in a Southern Iranian Population
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating neuro- inflammatory autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Genetic predisposition has long been suspected in the etiology of this disease. The association between MTHFR polymorphisms and MS has been ivestigated in different ethnic groups. We investigated the association between MTHFR C677T and A1298C missense variants and MS in 180 patients ...
