Apoptosis and cancer: mutations within caspase genes
TLDR
This review gives an overview of the role of caspases, their natural modulators like IAPs, FLIPs, and Smac/Diablo in apoptosis and upon inactivation, and also in cancer development and some of the direct activators of procaspase-3.
Lack of association between paraoxonase-1 Q192R polymorphism and rheumatoid arthritis in southeast Iran.
TLDR
PON1 Q192R polymorphism was not found to be correlated with increased risk for rheumatoid arthritis in this Iranian population.
R620W functional polymorphism of protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 is not associated with pulmonary tuberculosis in Zahedan, southeast Iran.
TLDR
Significant differences were not observed in genotype or allele frequencies of PTPN22 C1858T in the comparison between pulmonary tuberculosis patients and healthy subjects in the Iranian population sample.
Functional polymorphism of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) gene +874T/A polymorphism is associated with pulmonary tuberculosis in Zahedan, Southeast Iran.
TLDR
A significant association was found between the IFN-γ +874T/A polymorphism (rs61923114) and susceptibility to PTB in a sample of Iranian population.
miR-608 rs4919510 C>G polymorphism decreased the risk of breast cancer in an Iranian subpopulation.
TLDR
The findings indicate that miR-608 polymorphism might be associated with decreased risk of BC in an Iranian subpopulation, and further large-scale studies with different ethnicities are needed to verify the findings.
Adenosine deaminase activity, trypsin inhibitory capacity and total antioxidant capacity in psoriasis
TLDR
This study highlights the importance of knowing the carrier and removal status of canine coronavirus, as a source of infection for other animals, not necessarily belonging to the same breeds.
Growth Impairment in β-Thalassemia Major: The Role of Trace Element Deficiency and Other Potential Factors
TLDR
The results of this study indicated that a temporally cumulative damage to growth-mediating mechanisms except those considered here is responsible for growth failure in thalassemia major.
Adenosine and deoxyadenosine induces apoptosis in oestrogen receptor‐positive and ‐negative human breast cancer cells via the intrinsic pathway
TLDR
It is suggested that extracellular adenosine and deoxyadenosine induce apoptosis in both oestrogen receptor‐positive (MCF‐7) and also oestrogens receptor‐negative human breast cancer cells by its uptake into the cells and conversion to AMP followed by activation of nucleoside kinase, and finally by the activation of the mitochondrial/intrinsic apoptotic pathway.
The L55M polymorphism of paraoxonase-1 is a risk factor for rheumatoid arthritis.
TLDR
The PON1 55MM genotype is a risk factor for rheumatoid arthritis, and the tetra-amplification refractory mutation system-PCR method was used to determine these polymorphisms and found no significant differences in the -107C/T polymorphism in the promoter sequence of Pon1.
Lack of association between rs1024611 (-2581 A/G) polymorphism in CC-chemokine Ligand 2 and susceptibility to pulmonary Tuberculosis in Zahedan, Southeast Iran.
TLDR
The results do not support an association of -2581 A/G polymorphism of CCL2 with pulmonary tuberculosis susceptibility, and there were no significant differences between PTB patients and control subjects regarding the polymorphism.
