the real pathophysiology of crohn’s disease is unknown. the higher prevalence of crohn’s disease in caucasian and jewish ethnicities, as well as its familial aggregation and higher concordance among monozygotic twins, suggest some roles for genes in its development, clinical progression, and outcome. recent original studies have indicated dlg5113g/a gene polymorphism as a risk factor for crohn’...

background: one of the limitations in the treatment of common diseases such as cancer chemotherapy is development of multidrug re sistance (mdr). polymorphisms could alter the expression level of mdr1 gene, which plays an important role in mdr. in this research, the frequency of c3435t, c1236t, and g2677t/a polymorphisms of mdr1 gene was investigated in a large group of population from hamadan ...

aim : the present study evaluated the association between g241r and k469e polymorphisms of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 gene and inflammatory bowel disease in iranian population.   background : inflammatory bowel disease including ulcerative colitis and crohn’s disease, is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. there are two single base polymorphisms of in...

Quantitative traits locus for milk production traits has been described on centromeric end of bovine chromosome 14. Reports name the acyl coA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT1) gene as a potential candidate gene with dinucleotide substitution (AA to GC) in exon VIII which causes the change of lysine to alanine in amino acid (K232A).The aim of the present study was to estimate the frequency...

The primary aim of this study was to investigate the status of RANKL6-7 gene polymorphism in patients with chronic (mild, moderate, severe) and aggressive periodontitis as well as healthy controls. We examined80 patients for the RANKL6-7 polymorphisms (rs1054016 and rs9567000). Polymorphism was determinedby polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by direct sequencing. No statistica...

Background: Perilipins are proteins at the external level of the lipid glob in adipocytes steroid-generating cells and play a central role in lipid storage and breakdown. FTO gene is associated with Type-2 diabetes (T2D) and increased fat mass. Association of Perilipin and FTO genes polymorphism with T2D was investigated. Methods: Clinical traits in a random sample of 183 Iranian men and wom...

Goal. To evaluate the genetic profi le of patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) by CAT gene polymorphism in region-262G/A (rs1001179), GPX4 region-718C/T (rs713041), IL28B region C/T (rs12979860) and VEGFA region- 634G/C (rs2010963) to analyze association rate progression liver fi brosis polymorphic markers. Materials methods. We examined 36 CHC a rapidly progressive (up 10 years) 56 slowly c...

  Purpose: Estrogen as a crucial hormone during pregnancy acts by two types of receptors.   Estrogen receptor alpha, expressed by estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) gene, is more abundant and   exists in all human reproductive systems. Association of ESR1 gene polymorphism has been   shown in some reproductive fields such as spontaneous abortion, endometriosis-related infertility   and in vitro fertili...
