SDF-1/CXCL12 and CXCR4 gene variants, and elevated serum SDF-1 levels are associated with preeclampsia
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2017)
Objective: We aimed to compare the frequencies of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) 3A and CXCR4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and serum SDF-1 levels in patients with preeclampsia (PE).Methods: In total, 89 ...
Association of microsomal epoxide hydrolase gene polymorphism and pre-eclampsia in Turkish women
(WILEY, 2007)
Aim: To assess the association between human epoxide hydrolase exon 3 and 4 polymorphisms and pre-eclampsia by carrying out a case-control study in Turkish women. Methods: DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes, ...
Lack of association between the CYP11B2 gene polymorphism and preeclampsia, eclampsia, and the HELLP syndrome in Turkish women
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2006)
Objectives: It is possible that altered control of aldosterone synthase gene (CYP11B2) expression or translation may be responsible for. hypertension. Hypertension is one of the major components of preeclampsia. We present ...
VITAMIN D RECEPTOR TAQI POLYMORPHISM IS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGHER IMMUNE RESPONSE TO HEPATITIS B VACCINATION IN TURKISH DIALYSIS PATIENTS
(CARBONE EDITORE, 2018)
Introduction: We aimed to investigate the possible role of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in immune response to Hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination in dialysis patients. Methods: A total ...
Sulfotransferase 1A1 (SULT1A1) polymorphism and susceptibility to primary brain tumors
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Purpose Sulfotransferase 1A1 is a member of sulfotransferase family that plays an important role in the biotransformation of numerous carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds through sulfation. The present study has investigated ...
Polymorphisms of CYP1A1, GSTM1, GSTT1, and prostate cancer risk in Turkish population
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2006)
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in many countries. Although the etiology of prostate cancer largely is unknown, both genetic and environmental factors may be involved. Advanced age, androgen metabolism, ...
Is There Any Relationship Between Toll-Like Receptor 3 c.1377C/T and-7C/A Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever?
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2016)
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an infectious disease that is caused by CCHF virus. A family of transmembrane receptors called as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) selectively acts in recognizing a wide range of microbial ...
The Association of MYNN and TERC Gene Polymorphisms and Bladder Cancer in a Turkish Population
(UROL & NEPHROL RES CTR-UNRC, 2019)
Purpose: Researchers reported that, MYNN rs10936599 polymorphism is in strong or moderate linkage disequilibrium with SNPs within the 3q26.2 chromosomal regions that also include the TERC gene. In addition, it has been ...
MBL, P2X7, and SLC11A1 gene polymorphisms in patients with oropharyngeal tularemia
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2016)
Conclusion: A significant association was found of oropharyngeal tularemia with SLC11A1 allele polymorphism (INT4G/C) and MBL2 C+4T (P/Q). These results indicate C allele and Q allele might be a risk factor for the development ...
Significant Association Between Polymorphisms of Wnt Antagonist Genes and Lung Cancer
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015)
Further elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying lung cancer (LC) is essential for the development of new effective therapeutic agents. Recently, involvement of Wnt antagonists in oncogenesis has been demonstrated ...
