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 ...
Myeloperoxidase G-463A polymorphism and risk of lung and prostate cancer in a Turkish population
(SPANDIDOS PUBL LTD, 2011)
Myeloperoxidase (M PO) is a phase I enzyme that can bioactivate many specific procarcinogens, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and aromatic amines. The MPO gene contains a common single nucleotide polymorphism, ...
The evaluation of two genetic polymorphisms of paraoxonase 1 in patients with pulmonary embolism
(WILEY, 2018)
Background and ObjectivePulmonary embolism (PE) is caused by some genetic factors for more than half patients. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) has significant anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. According to our knowledge, ...
ANALYSIS OF IL-6, IL-10 AND NF-kappa B GENE POLYMORPHISMS IN AGGRESSIVE AND CHRONIC PERIODONTITIS
(NATL INST PUBLIC HEALTH, 2017)
Objective: Pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-6 (IL-6), demonstrated to be suppressed by interleukin-10 (IL-10) are known to be regulated by the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-kappa B). The aim of this ...
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 ...
Lack of Association between the MTHFR C677T Polymorphism and Lung Cancer in a Turkish Population
(ASIAN PACIFIC ORGANIZATION CANCER PREVENTION, 2014)
Background: In this case-control study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism and lung cancer. Materials and Methods: Total 200 individuals ...
Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) I/D and Alpha-Adducin (ADD1) G460W Gene Polymorphisms in Turkish Patients with Severe Chronic Tinnitus
(AVES, 2016)
OBJECTIVE: Tinnitus is described as a disturbing sound sensation in the absence of external stimulation. We aimed to investigate whether there is any relationship between severe chronic tinnitus and angiotensin-converting ...
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 ...
Polymorphisms of selected genes related to increased cardiovascular risk in patients with acute coronary syndromes and their relation to the severity of coronary artery disease

Background: beta-Fibrinogen 455G/A, factor V 1691G/A, 1299H/A and glycoprotein Ilb/IIla PL A1/A2 polymorphisms are tought to be related to arterial thrombotic disorders, especially coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial ...
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 ...
