• Analysis of SOD2 rs4880 Genetic Variant in Patients with Alzheimer’s Disease 

      Siokas V., Stamati P., Pateraki G., Liampas I., Aloizou A.-M., Tsirelis D., Nousia A., Sgantzos M., Nasios G., Bogdanos D.P., Dardiotis E. (2022)
      A few gene loci that contribute to Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) onset have been identified. Few studies have been published about the relationship between SOD2 rs4880 single nucleotide variant and AD, revealing inconsistent ...
    • BDNF rs6265 (Val66Met) Polymorphism as a Risk Factor for Blepharospasm 

      Siokas V., Kardaras D., Aloizou A.-M., Asproudis I., Boboridis K.G., Papageorgiou E., Hadjigeorgiou G.M., Tsironi E.E., Dardiotis E. (2019)
      A few genetic variants are implicated in the development of blepharospasm (BSP). The precise role of the rs6265 on the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene on BSP remains controversial. The effect of rs6265 on BSP ...
    • CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism and risk for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 

      Siokas V., Karampinis E., Aloizou A.-M., Mentis A.-F.A., Liakos P., Papadimitriou D., Liampas I., Nasios G., Bogdanos D.P., Hadjigeorgiou G.M., Dardiotis E. (2021)
      Background: Genetic variability is considered to confer susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Oxidative stress is a significant contributor to ALS-related neurodegeneration, and it is regulated by cytochromes ...
    • Genetic variations in the SULF1 gene alter the risk of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions 

      Dardiotis E., Siokas V., Garas A., Paraskevaidis E., Kyrgiou M., Xiromerisiou G., Deligeoroglou E., Galazios G., Kontomanolis E.N., Spandidos D.A., Tsatsakis A., Daponte A. (2018)
      Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection alone is not sufficient to explain the development of cervical cancer. Genetic variants have been linked to the development of precancerous lesions and cervical cancer. In this study, ...
    • Myelin-associated oligodendrocyte basic protein rs616147 polymorphism as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease 

      Siokas V., Aloizou A.-M., Liampas I., Bakirtzis C., Tsouris Z., Sgantzos M., Liakos P., Bogdanos D.P., Hadjigeorgiou G.M., Dardiotis E. (2022)
      BACKGROUND: The rs616147 polymorphism of the myelin-associated oligodendrocyte basic protein (MOBP) gene locus has been associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS and Parkinson's disease (PD) are two common ...
    • The role of tor1a polymorphisms in dystonia: A systematic review and meta- analysis 

      Siokas V., Dardiotis E., Tsironi E.E., Tsivgoulis G., Rikos D., Sokratous M., Koutsias S., Paterakis K., Deretzi G., Hadjigeorgiou G.M. (2017)
      Importance A number of genetic loci were found to be associated with dystonia. Quite a few studies have been contacted to examine possible contribution of TOR1A variants to the risk of dystonia, but their results remain ...
