ERCC5 plays crucial role in excision repair DNA damage induced by UV in NER pathway. Single neuleotide polymorphism in ERCC5 were responsible for different cancers.Therefore, current study evaluated the relationship between ERCC5 (rs1047768 T>C) polymorphism and the risk of breast cancer in Pakistani population. The rs1047768 polymorphism was screened among 175 female...

Dental decay is a disease that is greatly affected by environmental components, but recently there have been an increasing number of documents supporting a genetic factor in the development of caries. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between dental caries and single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the AMELX gene. This research was carried out on 360 individuals of both sexes...

introduction: a thyroid nodule is a palpable swelling in a thyroid gland with an otherwise normal appearance. palpable thyroid nodules occur in 4 to 7 percent of the population. nodular thyroid diseases are more frequent in women than in men. most actions of thyroid hormone are mediated by the active form of thyroid hormone. d2 is essential for formation of active hormone of t3 through deiodina...

background: bladder cancer (bc) is the most commonly diagnosed genitourinary cancer in iran, presented in both men and women. bc is a multifactorial trait resulting from the complex interaction between several genes and environmental factors. long stress-induced non-coding transcript 5 (lsinct5), a member of the long non-coding rnas, is abundantly expressed in high proliferative cells, as well ...

results no significant difference was found between the groups regarding bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism. the c allele was not associated with ns-cl/p (or = 1.27, 95% ci = 0.85-2.79, p = 0.690). conclusions our data suggested that bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism was not associated with risk/ protection for ns-cl/p in a sample of iranian population. larger studies are required to validate our ...
