Ethnicity variation is one of the main factors that may affect drug response in clinical practice. As MTHFR gene affects different transcriptome and proteome which drugs. Purpose current study was to observe possible variations plasma levels carbamazepine monotherapy seizures' control Pakhtun population Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) context (C677T A1298C) polymorphisms.

Background: β-thalassemia as a hereditary disease is defined as defective synthesis of   β-globin chains, resulting in erythropoiesis abnormalities and severe anemia. Different studies have shown that cytokines and cytokine gene polymorphisms play a major role in the pathogenesis of   β-thalassemia. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the promoter region or other regulatory sequences ...

A high prevalence of genetic polymorphisms increases sensitivity to warfarin therapy. In this study, we investigated 47 patients with effective long-term therapy by warfarin well-controlled by monitoring of International Normalised Ratio (INR). All patients were tested for gene polymorphisms VKORC1, CYP2C9*C2, and CYP2C9*C3, which were used for a dose calculation employing a program www.Warfari...

background: half of the cases of vision loss in people under 60 years of age have been attributed to age-related macular degeneration (amd). this is a multifactorial disease with late onset. it has been demonstrated that many different genetic loci are implicated in the risk of developing amd in different populations. in the current study, we investigated the association of high-temperature ‎re...

Schizophrenia is a complex disorder with polygenic inheritance. The MTHFR gene (OMIM: 607093) plays an important role in the folate metabolism. It has been suggested that C677T (rs1801133) and A1298C (rs1801131) genetic polymorphisms in the MTHFR gene lead to the decreased activity of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase enzyme which may have significant effect on developing schizophrenia. W...

Background: Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays a main role in high-density lipoprotein metabolism. CETP gene possesses several single nucleotide polymorphisms which have been associated with plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations. The aim of this study was to determine the association of CETP -629C/A and I405V polymorphisms with coronary artery disease (...

background: some dynamic changes occurs during spermatogenesis such as histone removal and its replacement with transition nuclear protein and protamine. these proteins are required for packing and condensation of sperm chromatin. jhdm2a is a histone demethylase that directly binds to promoter regions of tnp1 and prm1 genes and controls their expression by removing h3k9 at their promoters.objec...
