Association between the Asp327Asn Polymorphism of Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin Gene and Prostate Cancer
Background: By binding SHBG hormone to sex hormones, in addition to carrying them in the blood, they regulate the amount of tissue availability. Since the genetic changes in the structure of globulin affect it’s binding to hormones, so in this study the effects of single nucleotide change in exon 8 or rs 6259 in the incidence of prostate cancer is evaluated. Methods: The study populati...
متن کاملThe Evaluation of Serum Level of Testosterone and Sex Hormone- Binding Globulin in Men with Type 2 Diabetes
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between serum level of testosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin in men with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this case-control study, forty men aged 40-70 with type 2 diabetes mellitus were randomly selected and compared with 40 non-diabetic men. The two groups were matched for their age and BMI. After complete observation and examination...
متن کاملAssociation of the (TAAAA)n repeat and Asp327Asn polymorphisms in the sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) gene with idiopathic male infertility and relation to serum SHBG concentrations.
Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) is involved in delivering sex hormones to target tissues. We investigated the association between the (TAAAA)n repeat polymorphism, and Asp327Asn polymorphism in the SHBG gene with semen quality and idiopathic male infertility. We studied 168 men with idiopathic infertility [oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT)] and equal number of age-matched normal controls. ...
متن کاملAssociations of serum sex hormone-binding globulin and sex hormone concentrations with hip fracture risk in postmenopausal women.
CONTEXT Endogenous estradiol, testosterone, and SHBG may influence the risk of hip fracture. DESIGN AND METHODS From the Women's Health Initiative Observational Study, 39,793 eligible postmenopausal women did not have a previous hip fracture and were not using estrogen or other bone-active therapies. Of these, 400 who had a first-time nonpathological hip fracture (median follow-up, 7 yr) were...
متن کاملThe effects of postmenopausal hormone therapy on serum estrogen, progesterone, and sex hormone-binding globulin levels in healthy postmenopausal women.
OBJECTIVE Differences in disease outcomes between users and nonusers of hormone therapy (HT) and between users of estrogen therapy (ET) and users of estrogen + progesterone therapy (EPT) may relate to differences in serum hormone concentrations between these populations. In this study, we examined the response of serum hormone levels in healthy postmenopausal women after 1 year of HT. METHODS...
