Real-time quantification of human telomerase reverse transcriptase mRNA in liver tissues from patients with hepatocellular cancer and chronic viral hepatitis
(2007)
We determined, for the first time, the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) mRNA expression, using real-time quantitative PCR, in liver tissues from patients with hepatocellular cancer (HCC; n = 13), chronic ...
Correlation of promoter hypermethylation in hTERT, DAPK and MGMT genes with cervical oncogenesis progression
(2009)
DNA hypermethylation occurs during the multi-step process of cervical carcinogenesis. We investigated whether the methylation status in the promoter region of a potential oncogene, the human telomerase reverse transcriptase ...
Central Role of SREBP-2 in the Pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis
(2012)
Background: Recent studies have implied that osteoarthritis (OA) is a metabolic disease linked to deregulation of genes involved in lipid metabolism and cholesterol efflux. Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Proteins (SREBPs) ...
Interleukin-10G and interleukin-10R microsatellite polymorphisms and osteoarthritis of the knee
(2005)
Objective To clarify and evaluate the possible role of interleukin-10G (IL-10G) and interleukin-10R (IL-10R) microsatellite polymorphisms of IL-10 gene in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods This was a case-control study. ...
Angiopoietin-1 and angiopoietin-2 as serum biomarkers for ectopic pregnancy and missed abortion A case-control study
(2013)
Background: A case-control study to evaluate whether a single serum measurement of angiopoietin-1 (ANG-1) and angiopoietin-2 (ANG-2) at 6-8 weeks gestation can differentiate failed pregnancies, whether ectopic pregnancies ...
Migfilin's elimination from osteoarthritic chondrocytes further promotes the osteoarthritic phenotype via beta-catenin upregulation
(2013)
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating disease of the joints characterized by cartilage degradation but to date there is no available pharmacological treatment to inhibit disease progression neither is there any available ...
UGT1A1 promoter polymorphism as a predisposing factor of hyperbilirubinaemia in neonates with acute pyelonephritis
(2006)
We describe 4 jaundiced neonates with acute pyelonephritis of whom family history was positive for or pointed to Gilbert's syndrome (GS). Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT-1A1), ( TA) 7 polymorphism, ...
Association of a BMP5 microsatellite with knee osteoarthritis: case-control study
(2012)
Introduction: We aimed to explore the involvement of a multiallelic functional polymorphism in knee osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility as a prototype of possible genetic factors escaping GWAS detection. Methods: OA patients ...
Osteoarthritis Year in Review 2014: genetics and genomics
(2014)
Recent developments in genetics/genomics of osteoarthritis (OA) are discussed to improve our understanding of OA pathophysiology. The discovery of a novel variant near the NCOA3 (nuclear receptor coactivator 3) gene ...
