Investigation of adrenoceptor genes (β2 & β3) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Background: Genetic polymorphism is responsible for variations and individual differences. Polymorphism is a major factor of complex diseases with unknown etiology and cancer. Inconsistency in the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (monthly disorder, hirsutism, obesity, diabetes, infertility) is one of the major pathological complications of this syndrome. The present study was conducted to ...
متن کاملSingle-nucleotide polymorphism of rs11061971 (+219 A>T) in adiponectin receptor 2 (AdipoR2) gene and its association with risk of type 2 diabetes among an Iranian population
Background and Objectives: Genetic modifications in the adiponectin receptor 2 (AdipoR2) gene can affect phenotypes associated with insulin resistance and diabetes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the possible role of genetic modifications in the AdipoR2 gene, to determine the frequency of genotypes and polymorphism alleles of this gene at rs11061971 (+219 A>T), and to investigate its...
متن کاملThe Association of Vitamin D Receptor Gene BsmI Polymorphism with Multiple Sclerosis in Iranian Patients
Background & Aims: 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25 (OH)2 D3), the biologically active form of vitamin D, exerts an immunosuppressive effect through binding to its specific nuclear receptor. The present case-control study was done to examine the possible association of BsmI polymorphism in vitamin D receptor gene (VDR gene) with severity of multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods: 267 Iranian patients w...
متن کاملبررسی ارتباط پلی مورفیسم ژن PPARγ2 با چاقی درجمعیت ایرانی
Background: Peroxisome Proliferators- Activated Receptor-Gamma2 (PPAR- γ2) is a nuclear receptor that regulates adipocyte differentiation, lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of the Pro12Ala polymorphism at the PPAR- γ2 gene in Iranian population with obesity. Methods: The genomic DNAs of the 156 subjects including obese and healthy i...
متن کاملAssociation of Prolactin and Prolactin Receptor Gene Polymorphisms with Economic Traits in Breeder Hens of Indigenous Chickens of Mazandaran Province
Polymorphisms in 5’-flanking region of prolactin (PRL), exon 2 and exon 5 of prolactin receptor (PRLR) genesand its association with growth and egg traits were examined in breeder hens of Mazandaran native fowlsbreeding station. A single nucleotide polymorphism at site C-2402T and a 24 bp nucleotide sequence insertionat situation -382 in 5’-flanking regions of PRL gene were id...
متن کاملCommon Genetic Variant of insig2 Gene rs7566605 Polymorphism Is Associated with Severe Obesity in North India
Background: Obesity is a very common disorder resulting from an imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure, and it has a substantial impact on the development of chronic diseases. The aim of this study was to examine the association of INSIG2 (rs7566605) gene polymorphism with obesity and obesity associated phenotypes in North Indian subjects. Methods: The variants were investig...
