Abstract:
We previously demonstrated that lactoferrin gene polymorphisms occur in cancer cells of patients with leukemia and breast cancer. In this study, we established a non-radioactive polymerase chain reaction–single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR–SSCP) analysis, one of the most sensitive and simplest methods to detect polymorphisms and mutations of the human lactoferrin gene. We optimized the PCR conditions for nine different DNA templates and 16 pairs of exon primers for SSCP analysis. The DNA templates used in the analyses were prepared from a cosmid clone (CT6–1) that contains the human l

SummaryExpressed polymorphisms in the genes encoding components of the fibrinolytic cascade could have implications for the predisposition to thrombolytic disorders and/or for tumor metastasis. The occurrence of published two amino acid sequences at position 194 of the human urokinase-type plasminogen activator prompted us to search by SSCP for frequent polymorphisms in several exons of the gene. Surprisingly, only one sequence was detected in codon 194 (>200 alleles). Two polymorphisms were observed in this study: the most frequent one, a C to T change near the beginning of exon 8, is prob

Polymorphisms in several neurotransmitter-associated genes have been associated with variation in human personality traits. Among the more promising of such associations is that between the human dopamine receptor D4 gene ( Drd4 ) variants and novelty-seeking behaviour. However, genetic epistasis, genotype–environment interactions and confounding environmental factors all act to obscure genotype–personality relationships. Such problems can be addressed by measuring personality under standardized conditions and by selection experiments, with both approaches only feasible with non-human animals.

Abstract:
β2-adrenergic receptors (β2AR) are GTP-binding protein (G-protein) coupled receptors widely distributed in human tissue. Inhaled β2-agonist drugs exert their primary effect on the β2AR of bronchial smooth muscles, causing relaxation and bronchial dilatation. Polymorphisms in the β2AR gene have been identified, which may affect responsiveness to β2-agonists and disease severity in asthmatics. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the coding region and eight SNPs within in the 5′ upstream region of the β2AR gene have been identified. The two most studied polymorphisms are mutations

Abstract:
Abstract The α2A-adrenergic receptor mediates important physiologic responses, such as regulation of blood pressure, control of sympathetic autonomic responses, as well as the platelet response to epinephrine. The gene encoding the α2A-adrenergic receptor is polymorphic. One of the polymorphisms, known as the Dra I polymorphism, is located in the 3′ untranslated region of this gene. The Dra I polymorphism of the α2A-adrenergic receptor is associated with a higher incidence of systemic arterial hypertension among African-Americans. Although the presence of this polymorphism was known by Souther

Abstract The immunoglobulin E (IgE)-associated locus on human chromosome 13q14 influencing asthma-related traits contains the genes PHF11 and SETDB2. SETDB2 is located in the same linkage disequilibrium region as PHF11 and polymorphisms within SETDB2 have been shown to associate with total serum IgE levels. In this report, we sequenced the 15 exons of SETDB2 and identified a single previously ungenotyped mutation (AT/G, rs386770867) in the 5′-untranslated region of the gene. The polymorphism was found to be significantly associated with serum IgE levels in our asthma cohort (P=0.0012). Electro

Abstract:
Cathepsin A (CatA) is important as a drug-metabolizing enzyme responsible for the activation of prodrugs, such as the anti-human immunodeficiency virus drug Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF). The present study was undertaken to clarify the presence of polymorphisms of the CatA gene in healthy Japanese subjects and the influence of gene polymorphism on the expression level of CatA protein and the drug-metabolizing activity. Single-strand conformation polymorphism method was used to analyze genetic polymorphisms in healthy Japanese subjects. Nine genetic polymorphisms were identified in the CatA gene.

An increased prevalence of the C3 F allele has been reported in patients with partial lipodystrophy, IgA nephropathy, and Indian childhood hepatic cirrhosis. Studies of the genomic organization of the human C3 gene led to the identification of a single change (C to G) between C3 S and C3 F at nucleotide 364 in exon 3. This leads, at the tran

Meningiomas are generally benign intracranial tumors originating from the meninges. Overexpression of the p53 protein in meningiomas and an association with histological type and recurrence has been reported. Mutation of the TP53 gene leads to a more stable p53 protein in quantities high enough for detection by immunohistochemistry. In the search for these mutations the core domain of the TP53 gene of meningiomas has been analyzed. Only a very low incidence of mutations was rep
