Cytochrome P450 2D6 and MDR1 Gene Mutation in Relation to Mortality in Patients with Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever: A Preliminary Study
(ORTADOGU AD PRES & PUBL CO, 2009)
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of multidrug transporter P-glycoprotein 1 (MDR1), cytochrome P450 isozyme 2D6 (CYP2D6) and C-C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) genes in the mortality of patients ...
Combined Germline Variations of Thrombophilic Genes Promote Genesis of Lung Cancer
(ASIAN PACIFIC ORGANIZATION CANCER PREVENTION, 2013)
Background: A large variety of familiar and non-familiar lung carcinomas (LC) are caused by long term exposure to chemical carcinogens that are present in tobacco smoke. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of 5 thrombophilic ...
Germ-line MTHFR C677T, FV H1299R and PAI-1 5G/4G Variations in Breast Carcinoma
(ASIAN PACIFIC ORGANIZATION CANCER PREVENTION, 2013)
Background: Various oncogenes related to cancer have been extensively studied and several polymorphisms have been found to be associated with breast cancer. The current report outlines analysis of germ-line polymorphisms ...
Bcii-RFLP profiles for serum amiloid A1 and mutated MEFV gene prevalence in chronic renal failure patients requiring long-term hemodialysis
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2015)
Background and aim: There is an increased mortality risk in long-term hemodialysis patients of renal failure due to the chronic inflammation. The relationship between the chronic renal failure (CRF) and the role of familial ...
Associations of fractalkine receptor (CX3CR1) and CCR5 gene variants with hypertension, diabetes and atherosclerosis in chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis
(SPRINGER, 2016)
We aimed to investigate the associations of fractalkine receptor (CX3CR1) V249I, T280M and CCR5-59029 A/G gene polymorphisms in chronic renal failure (CRF) subjects undergoing hemodialysis and to evaluate possible associations ...
KRAS, BRAF oncogene mutations and tissue specific promoter hypermethylation of tumor suppressor SFRP2, DAPK1, MGMT, HIC1 and p16 genes in colorectal cancer patients
(IOS PRESS, 2016)
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer is a serious disease that causes significant morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Genetic changes, such as mutations in proto-oncogenes and DNA repair genes, and loss of function ...
Evaluation of the cell death pathway and apoptosis-stunning effect relationship after low- and high-dose I-131 administrations in rat thyroid tissue
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2006)
Objectives: This study had two aims; (1) to describe the cell death pathway (apoptosis or necrosis) induced by a low and high dose of radioiodine (I-131) in rat thyroid tissue in in vivo conditions and (2) to determine the ...
Associations between common 3435 C > T variants of the multi-drug resistance [MDR-1 (ABCB1)] gene and abdominal aortic aneurysm: a pilot study
(EKIN TIBBI YAYINCILIK LTD STI-EKIN MEDICAL PUBL, 2011)
Background: The aim of the study was to reveal the effect of the C3435T MDR-1 gene polymorphism in AAA, which has been postulated to play a role in the inflammatory process and protection against oxidative stress. Methods: ...
Clinical and molecular analysis of common MEFV gene mutations in familial Mediterranean fever in Sivas population
(SPRINGER, 2009)
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the most frequent hereditary inflammatory disease characterized by self-limited recurrent attacks of fever and serositis. The aim of the current study is to determine the frequency of ...
A Prospective Case-Control Study Analyzes 12 Thrombophilic Gene Mutations in Turkish Couples with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss
(WILEY, 2010)
Problem Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a heterogeneous disorder. The contribution of specific thrombophilic genes to the pathophysiology of RPL has remained controversial. We evaluated the prevalences of 12 thrombophilic ...
