Ahr; Breast cancer; Gene; Meta-analysis; Polymorphism

Published data regarding the association between aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) rs2066853 polymorphism and the risk of breast cancer shows conflicting results. We performed a meta-analysis on 2999 patients and 3050 controls from three related case-control studies to estimate the association between Ahr rs2066853 polymorphism and the risk of breast cancer. The protocol was approved by ... more

Catechol-O-methyl transferase; Cytochrome P450 17; Estrogen receptor 1; Osteoporosis; Polymorphism

In this study, we evaluated genetic factors related to the mineral density during post-menopause. We evaluated 110 women in the first 5 years post-menopause, without previous hormone replacement therapy. Cytochrome P450 17 (CYP17) (rs743572), catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) (rs4680), and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) (rs9322331) were examined for the ... more

Coronary artery disease; Interleukin-10; Polymorphism

The aim of this study was to investigate the association between three common SNPs (-1082A/G, -819T/C, and -592A/C) in the interleukin 10 (IL-10) gene, and the development of coronary artery disease. Between January 2013 and December 2014, 272 patients with coronary artery disease and control subjects (each) were recruited for this study from the Huaihe Hospital of Henan University. ... more

Meta-analysis; Polymorphism; TNF-α; Urogenital cancer

We integrated all the eligible studies and investigated whether the TNF-α 308G/A polymorphism correlates with urogenital cancer risk. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a risk factor for some urogenital cancers; however, in prostate and bladder cancers the results are controversial. PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and the ... more

CD226; Chinese; Polymorphism; Type 1 diabetes

Polymorphisms in the CD226 gene have been reported to be associated with autoimmune diseases. The aim of our study was to investigate the association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs763361 and rs727088) in the CD226 gene and the risk for developing type 1 diabetes (T1D) in Chinese Han children. This case-control study included a total of 152 Chinese children with T1D and ... more

Allergic rhinitis; Interleukin-6; Polymorphism

The aim of this study was to investigate the role played by the IL-6 rs1800795 (-174G/C) and rs1800796 (-572G>C) polymorphisms in the susceptibility to allergic rhinitis in a Chinese population. A total of 265 patients with allergic rhinitis and 265 controls from our hospital were enrolled in this study. The IL-6 rs1800795 and rs1800796 polymorphisms were genotyped by ... more

-1082A/G; -592A/C; CAD; IL-10; Polymorphism

Here, we conducted a case-control study to investigate the association between IL-10 gene polymorphisms and development of CAD in a Chinese population. A total of 220 patients with CAD and 236 control subjects who visited the Zhengzhou People’s Hospital between May 2012 and June 2014 were selected for this study. The IL-10-1082A/G and -592A/C ... more

IL-8; Polymorphism; Primary gouty arthritis; rs2227306; rs4073

In this study, we investigated the role of two single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region of the interleukin-8 gene (IL-8; rs4073 and rs2227306) in the susceptibility to primary gouty arthritis in a Chinese population. Three hundred and twelve patients with primary gouty arthritis and 340 healthy controls were recruited from the Yan’an ... more

Epinephelus coioides; IGF1Ra; IGF1Rb; Nucleotide diversity; Polymorphism

Orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) is one of the most important marine fish and has a high market value. The insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF1R) is a component of the insulin-like growth factor signaling system, and demonstrates important roles during growth. Based on information from livestock, we ... more
