chronic granulomatous disease (cgd), a rare inherited primary immunodeficiency disorder,  is  caused  by  mutation  in  any  one  of  the  genes  encoding  components   of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (nadph)-oxidase enzyme. ncf2 gene (encoding p67-phox component) is one of them and its mutation is less common to cause cgd (around 5-6%). here, we assessed mutation analysis of ncf...

background: patients with diabetes mellitus type ii suffer from hyperglycemia because they are not able to use the insulin that they produce, often due to inadequate function of insulin receptors. there are some evidences that this deficiency is inherited in a dominant autosomal manner and leads to the malfunction of the pancreatic beta cells resulting in insulin excretion disorders. in this st...

Abstract Background Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is an autosomally inherited bleeding disorder with the prevalence of 1% based on population studies. The disease phenotype is due to quantitative and structural/functional defects in Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) which is a glycoprotein with essential role as a carrier of FVIII in circulation and also it serves the function as hemostasis regulato...

Medullary thyroid cancer accounts for 5-10% of thyroid carcinomas. RET proto-oncogene mutations occur in all of the hereditary MTCs and about 66% of the sporadic MTCs. So, the detection of the RET mutations is necessary for rapid and proper diagnosis and treatment. This systematic review seeks to find a comprehensive list of RET gene mutations in the diagnosis of medullary thyroid cancer. The ...

background: some dynamic changes occurs during spermatogenesis such as histone removal and its replacement with transition nuclear protein and protamine. these proteins are required for packing and condensation of sperm chromatin. jhdm2a is a histone demethylase that directly binds to promoter regions of tnp1 and prm1 genes and controls their expression by removing h3k9 at their promoters.objec...
