Cpg Methylation In The Fhit Regulatory Region: Relation To Fhit Expression In Murine Tumors
(Nature Publishing Group, 2004)
To determine if: (1) 5' CpG island methylation is related to Fhit inactivation; (2) there are tumor or carcinogen-specific methylation patterns, we examined 35 CpG sites in the promoter, exon and intron 1 of the mouse Fhit ...
Genetic Association Study Of Exfoliation Syndrome Identifies A Protective Rare Variant At Loxl1 And Five New Susceptibility Loci
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
Exfoliation syndrome (XFS) is the most common known risk factor for secondary glaucoma and a major cause of blindness worldwide. Variants in two genes, LOXL1 and CACNA1A, have previously been associated with XFS. To further ...
Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms On The Ryd5 Gene In Nasal Polyposis
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2015)
Nasal polyposis (NP) is a chronic inflammatory disease. Several genes play major roles in the pathophysiology of the disease. We analyzed RYD5 gene polymorphisms to determine the effect of these variants or their genetic ...
Worldwide Distribution And Broader Clinical Spectrum Of Muscle-Eye-Brain Disease
(Oxford Univ Press, 2003)
Muscle-eye-brain disease (MEB), an autosomal recessive disorder prevalent in Finland, is characterized by congenital muscular dystrophy, brain malformation and ocular abnormalities. Since the MEB phenotype overlaps ...
Assessing the Severity of the Small Inframe Deletion Mutation in the Alpha-Subunit of Beta-Hexosaminidase A Found in the Turkish Population By Reproducing It in the More Stable Beta-Subunit
(Springer, 2004)
GM(2) gangliosidoses are a group of panethnic lysosomal storage diseases in which GM(2) ganglioside accumulates in the lysosome due to a defect in one of three genes, two of which encode the alpha- or beta-subunits of ...
Assignment of a Form of Congenital Muscular Dystrophy with Secondary Merosin Deficiency to Chromosome 1Q42
(Univ Chicago Press, 2000)
We have previously reported an autosomal recessive form of congenital muscular dystrophy, characterized by proximal girdle weakness, generalized muscle hypertrophy, rigidity of the spine, and contractures of the tendo ...
The Association Between Coenzyme Q10 Concentrations in Follicular Fluid with Embryo Morphokinetics and Pregnancy Rate in Assisted Reproductive Techniques
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2017)
This study seeks to evaluate the association between follicular fluid (FF) coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) levels, embryo morphokinetics, and pregnancy rate. Sixty infertile patients who underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection ...
Meta-Analysis Of 13 Genome Scans Reveals Multiple Cleft Lip/Palate Genes With Novel Loci On 9Q21 And 2Q32-35
(Univ Chicago Press, 2004)
Isolated or nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is a common birth defect with a complex etiology. A 10-cM genome scan of 388 extended multiplex families with CL/P from seven diverse populations (2,551 ...
Comparison Of Hcmv Ie And Ef-1 Alpha Promoters For The Stable Expression Of Beta-Subunit Of Hexosaminidase In Cho Cell Lines
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2006)
Genetic Evidence For Plasminogen As A Shared Genetic Risk Factor Of Coronary Artery Disease And Periodontitis
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2015)
Background-Genetic studies demonstrated the presence of risk alleles in the genes ANRIL and CAMTA1/VAMP3 that are shared between coronary artery disease (CAD) and periodontitis. We aimed to identify further shared genetic ...
