eNOS G894T Polymorphism and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2010)
Background: The genetic risk factors that contribute to the risk of developing abdominal aortic aneurysm ( AAA) are poorly understood. We assessed the association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase ( eNOS) gene polymorphism ...
Predictive significance of KRAS point mutation in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma relation to smoking and asbestos exposure in middle Anatolia population
(DRUNPP-SARAJEVO, 2010)
Persons who have been occupationally exposed to environmental mutagens have a substantially increased risk for somatic oncogene mutations. Structural mutation in viral kristen rat sarcoma oncogene homolog 2 (KRAS; v-Ki-ras ...
Association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase Glu298Asp gene polymorphism in psoriasis cases with hypertension
(K FAISAL SPEC HOSP RES CENTRE, 2014)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Psoriasis is a common autoimmune-mediated chronic, inflammatory skin disease. Although, the molecular mechanism is not completely understood, psoriasis is caused by genetic and non-genetic ...
Aldosterone Synthase CYP11B2 Gene Promoter Polymorphism in a Turkish Population With Chronic Kidney Disease
(IRANIAN SOC NEPHROLGY, 2015)
Introduction. It has been shown that gene polymorphisms influence the development and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Many studies have indicated that aldosterone synthase CYP11B2 gene polymorphism (-344C>T) ...
Association Between ABCB1 (MDR1) Gene Polymorphism and Unresponsiveness Combined Therapy in Chronic Hepatitis C virus
(KOWSAR PUBL, 2013)
Background: To treat viral infection of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a main strategy to prevent progression of liver disease, and cancer. Some patients with CHC have failed to respond to the common antiviral therapy in ...
Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene Germ-Line C677T and A1298C SNPs are Associated with Colorectal Cancer Risk in the Turkish Population
(ASIAN PACIFIC ORGANIZATION CANCER PREVENTION, 2014)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cause of death due to cancer in the worldwide and the incidence is also increasing in Turkey. Our present aim was to investigate any association between germ-line ...
The association between methylene-tetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism and lung cancer risk
(SPRINGER, 2011)
This study aimed to determine the relation between methylene-tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphism and lung cancer risk and the frequency of this polymorphism. The study involved 64 lung cancer patients (the ...
The effect of 3-methylcholanthrene and butylated hydroxytoluene on glycogen levels of liver, muscle, testis, and tumor tissues of rats
(TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2013)
This study examined the effects of separate and combined applications of 3-methylcholanthrene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and potent carcinogenic agent, and butylated hydroxytoluene, the antioxidant food additive, ...
The prevalence of VKORC1 1639 G > A and CYP2C9*2*3 genotypes in patients that requiring anticoagulant therapy in Turkish population
(SPRINGER, 2012)
The aim was to investigate the prevalence of VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genotypes in patients requiring anticoagulant therapy in two different region's populations of Turkey. The recent cohort included 292 patients that needed ...
Increased T-Allele Frequency of 677 C > T Polymorphism in the Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene in Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2012)
Background: Epigenetic alterations in the global DNA methylation status may be associated with an increased risk of some cancer types in humans. The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene is involved in folic ...
