The Study of Nitric Oxide Synthase 3 (NOS3) T-786C and 4a4b Gene Polymorphism in Iranian Men with Varicocele

چکیده مقاله:
Background and Objectives: Varicocele is one of the most common causes of male infertility. Varicocele is an abnormal dilatation and tortuosity of veins of the pampiniform plexus, which drain the testis. Studies have shown that elevated level of oxidative stress markers, such as nitric oxide (NO) in the dilated veins of patients with varicocele impair testicular function. The aim of this study, was to investigate the relationship between nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS3), T-786C, and 4a4b gene polymorphism as a common genetic factor with the risk of varicocele in Iranian men. Methods: The association of NOS3 T-786C and 4a4b gene polymorphisms in 60 Iranian men with varicocele and 61 control samples, were investigated using Multiplex-ARMS PCR and conventional PCR techniques.Data were statistically analyzed by t-test at the significance level of p<0.05. Results: The results revealed that among 60men with varicocele, 95% had -786 TTgenotype, 3.3% had heterozygotic genotype T-786C, and 1.6%, were CC in T-786C polymorphism. In addition,just 5% were heterozygote (ab) in 4a4b polymorphism and 95% had wild type genotype (aa), which was not statistically significant. Conclusion: In this study, the majority of individuals had wild-type genotypes TT and aa in T-786C and 4a4b polymorphisms, respectively.According to this data, no significant differences were found between NOS3 gene T-786C and 4a4b polymorphisms in the individuals with varicocele. It is worth noting that further studies should be performed to confirm these findings

Various polymorphisms on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOs) gene cause reduced production of NO, the endothelial relaxing factor, and may accelerate the process of atherosclerosis. The study designed to investigate the frequency of T-786C polymorphism of the eNOs gene in patients suffering from coronary artery disease (CAD) in north-west of Iran. One hundred twenty subjects including 60 p...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...

BACKGROUND Polymorphisms of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene are reportedly associated with myocardial infarction (MI) risk. However, definitive evidence of this association is lacking. In this study, we investigated the potential association of eNOS gene polymorphisms with MI risk by conducting a meta-analysis of studies evaluating this association. MATERIAL AND METHODS PubMed...
