Role of TLR4 (C1196T) and CD14 (C-260T) Polymorphisms in Development of Ischemic Stroke, Its Subtypes and Hemorrhagic Stroke
(Springer New York LLC, 2017)
In the present study, we evaluated the association of TLR4 and CD14 polymorphisms, i.e. C1196T and C-260T, respectively, with ischemic stroke (n?=?700), its subtypes and hemorrhagic stroke (n?=?300) in a South Indian ...
Association of the genetic variants of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a Saudi population
(Humana Press Inc., 2014)
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic degenerative disease, phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous, characterized by high levels of glucose and metabolic complications. Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) ...
Recent advances in HER2 positive breast cancer epigenetics: Susceptibility and therapeutic strategies
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2017)
HER2 amplification/overexpression accounts for aggressive clinical features of HER2 positive breast cancer. Epigenetic changes including DNA methylation, histone modifications and ncRNAs/miRNAs are associated with regulation ...
A low frequency variant within the GWAS locus of MTNR1B affects fasting glucose concentrations: Genetic risk is modulated by obesity
(2012)
Two common variants (rs1387153, rs10830963) in MTNR1B have been reported to have independent effects on fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels with increased risk to type 2 diabetes (T2D) in recent genome-wide association ...
High expression of FBP17 in invasive breast cancer cells promotes invadopodia formation
(Humana Press Inc., 2018)
Metastatic spread of the cancer is usually the consequence of the activation of signaling pathways that generate cell motility and tissue invasion. Metastasis involves the reorganization of cytoskeleton and cell shape for ...
Oxidative stress in the development of genetic generalised epilepsy: An observational study in southern Indian population
(Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017)
Introduction: Oxidative stress resulting from excessive generation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) plays a significant role in neurodegeneration associated with seizures/epilepsy. Aim: To evaluate oxidative stress markers ...
Interleukin 1ß (+3954, -511 and -31) polymorphism in chronic periodontitis patients from North India
(Informa Healthcare, 2015)
Objective. Several studies have implicated the role of interleukin-1 in various chronic diseases including periodontitis. The present study was carried out with an aim to evaluate the role of interleukin 1? polymorphisms, ...
Identification of novel translocation between short arm of chromosome 4 and long arm of chromosome 6 in an infertile man using Interphase Chromosome Profiling (ICP)
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2018)
Conventional cytogenetics has always been a favourite to detect chromosomal aberrations. Carriers of chromosomal translocation are often phenotypically normal but are infertile. Couples are often advised to go for karyotyping, ...
Genome-wide association studies in the Japanese population identify seven novel loci for type 2 diabetes
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 80 susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D), but most of its heritability still remains to be elucidated. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis ...
miR-30c and miR-181a synergistically modulate p53?p21 pathway in diabetes induced cardiac hypertrophy
(Springer New York LLC, 2016)
p53?p21 pathway mediates cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis and is upregulated in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM). We investigated role of microRNAs in regulating p53?p21 pathway in high glucose (HG)-induced cardiomyocyte ...
