the rs2476601 (r620w, c1858t) polymorphism in ptpn22 gene has been repeatedly reported to be associated with rheumatoid arthritis (ra). the rs 2476601 is widely suggested for predictive testing and risk assessment for ra. the aim of this study was to test the possible association of this snp with ra in iranian population.a total of 872 samples (405 confirmed ra patients and 467 healthy controls...

background: the hepatic secretion of apolipoprotein b (apob), containing lipoproteins, is known to be regulated by insulin, and the overproduction of these atherogenic lipoproteins occurs in insulin-resistant states. protein tyrosine phosphatase 1b (ptp-1b) is a key regulator of hepatic insulin signaling and is also upregulated in insulin resistance. we aimed to investigate the role of ptp-1b i...

protein tyrosine phosphatases (ptpases) regulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of target proteins in volved in several biological activities including cell proliferation and transformation. protein tyrosine phosphatase e (ptpe) contains duplicated ptpase-like domains and a short extracellular region. us ing the fluorescence in situ hybridization method, the gene encoding ptpe (locus symbol ptpre...

allergic rhinitis (ar) is an ige-mediated upper airway disease, and its impact on asthma has been widely recognized. protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (ptpn22) gene and the cytotoxic t-lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (ctla-4) gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with several immune-related diseases. here we investigated the reffect of these two genes’ polymorphisms ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of protein tyrosine kinase 2 and protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 11, which respectively encode focal adhesion kinase protein and src homology 2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase 2, in hematopoietic cells from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. METHODS Protein tyrosine kinase 2 and tyrosine phospha...

protein tyrosine phosphatases (ptpases) regulate tyrosine phosphorylation of target proteins involved in several aspects of cellular functions. enzyme activities of the ptpases in cytosolic and particulate fractions of rat ascites hepatoma cell lines were determined and compared with those of normal rat liver. our present data revealed that although there was no neoplatic-specific alteration of...
