Gilbert Syndrome as a Predisposing Factor for Cholelithiasis Risk in the Greek Adult Population
(2009)
We investigated the hypothesis that coinheritance of the common A(TA)(n)TAA promoter mutation at the UGT1A1 locus associated with Gilbert syndrome is a risk factor for gallstone formation in a homogeneous adult population, ...
Assessment of genetic structure of Greek brown hare (Lepus europaeus) populations based on variation in random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)
(2002)
The RAPD method was used to assess the genetic differentiation of brown hare (Lepus europaeus) populations from Central Greece. Greek wild populations were compared with samples from Austria, Poland, Germany, France, and ...
Evidence of Association Between Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene and Susceptibility to Breast Cancer: A Candidate-Gene Association Study in a South-Eastern European Population
(2012)
The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene has been proposed as a candidate gene for breast cancer (BC). However, the specific role of MTHFR polymorphisms and haplotypes has not been fully clarified and replicated. ...
Association Between Polymorphisms in MTHFR and APOA5 and Metabolic Syndrome in the Greek Population
(2011)
Impaired energy homeostasis and low-grade inflammation have been related to components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) such as dyslipidemia, obesity, and insulin resistance. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the genes ...
Association Between the Interleukin-1 beta Gene (IL1B) C-511T Polymorphism and the Risk of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes: A Candidate-Gene Association Study
(2014)
Variants of the interleukin-1 beta gene (IL1B) are implicated in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). The present candidate-gene association study was conducted to investigate the association between the IL1B ...
Gain-of-function variant in GLUD2 glutamate dehydrogenase modifies Parkinson's disease onset
(2010)
Parkinson's disease (PD), a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons and their terminations in the basal ganglia, is thought to be related to genetic and environmental ...
Dual transgene expression by foamy virus vectors carrying an endogenous bidirectional promoter
(2010)
Several gene therapy applications require the transfer and simultaneous expression of multiple genes in the same cell. In this study, we analyzed the potential for coordinated expression of an endogenous bidirectional ...
Isolation, annotation and applications of expressed sequence tags from the olive fly, Bactrocera oleae
(2011)
The olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae, is the major pest of the olive tree. Despite its importance, very little genetic and molecular knowledge is available. The present study is a first attempt to identify and characterize ...
beta-Glucocerebrosidase gene mutations in two cohorts of Greek patients with sporadic Parkinson's disease
(2011)
An increasing number of clinical, neuropathological and experimental evidence linking Gaucher disease and a spectrum of synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease (PD) has emerged over the last decade. In particular, ...
