[ 1 ] - Association of PTPN22 rs2476601 Polymorphism with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Celiac Disease in Khuzestan Province, Southwestern Iran

Background: Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2476601 within protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 gene (PTPN22) has been shown to be a risk factor for different autoimmune diseases. This study explored the association of 1858 C/T SNP with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and celiac disease (CD) in a region covering south-west of Iran. Methods: Totally, 52 patients with CD, 120 patien...

[ 2 ] - SMN1 and NAIP genes deletions in different types of spinal muscular atrophy in Khuzestan province, Iran

 Background: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is the second most common lethal autosomal recessive disease. It is a neuromuscular disorder caused by degenerative of lower motor neurons and occasionally bulbar neurons leading to progressive limb paralysis and muscular atrophy.

[ 3 ] - بررسی جهش های شایع ژن KRAS در بیماران مبتلا به سرطان کلورکتال تک گیر در استان خوزستان

سرطان کلورکتال (CRC) یکی از بدخیمی های شایع در جهان است. جهش های KRAS یکی از وقایع اولیه در تکوین و پیشرفت CRC می باشند کدون های 12 و 13 از اگزون شماره 1، نقاط داغ جهش در این ژن هستند. در این بررسی فراوانی وقوع جهش های کدون 12 و 13 را در بیماران خوزستانیِ مبتلا به سرطان کلورکتال تک گیر (SCRC) بررسی گردید و با میزان آن در سایر نواحی ایران و نیز در دیگر کشورها مقایسه شد. DNA ژنومی از بافت های تومو...

[ 4 ] - Molecular Characterization of Cosenza Mutation among Patients with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency in Khuzestan Province, Southwest Iran

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is one of the most common hereditary enzymatic disorders in human, increases the vulnerability of erythrocytes to oxidative stress. It is also characterized by remarkable molecular and biochemical heterogeneity. According to previous investigations, G6PD Cosenza (G1376C) is a common G6PD mutation in some parts of Iran. Therefore in the present...
