Gene Polymorphisms Affecting Erectile Dysfunction

Sexual Medicine Reviews, 2020
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is usually developed from psychological, neurological, hormonal, and vascular pathologies or a combination of these factors. However, the possible genetic polymorphisms that might underlie this disorder were not thoroughly investigated.This review article aimed to assess the possible involvement of gene polymorphisms in men ...

Rat tyrosine hydroxylase gene polymorphisms

Molecular Brain Research, 1997
The rat tyrosine hydroxylase gene (TH) from a panel of outbred and inbred rat strains has been analysed by Southern blotting, restriction-endonuclease mapping and direct sequencing of PCR-amplified products for detecting DNA polymorphisms. Five polymorphic sites have been characterized.

Polymorphisms in the HFE Gene

Human Heredity, 1999
Hereditary hemochromatosis is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by progressive iron overload. Recently, a candidate gene named HFE was isolated on the short arm of the chromosome 6 within which two mutations were identified: C282Y and H63D.

Cytokine gene polymorphisms in psoriasis

British Journal of Dermatology, 2001
Cytokine production is under genetic control, and certain allelic variants of cytokine genes are associated with higher or lower cytokine production in vitro and in vivo. Psoriasis is associated with an overexpression in the involved skin of T-helper cell type 1 (Th1) cytokines, e.g.

Polymorphisms of N-acetyltransferase genes

Xenobiotica, 1992
1. A genetic polymorphism of human liver arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) enzyme activity leads to wide variation in the disposition of many drugs and potential carcinogens, resulting in differential susceptibility to chemical-induced toxicity. 2. During studies to determine the biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying this pharmacogenetic ...

Gene polymorphisms associated with temperament

Journal of Neurogenetics, 2017
When individuals are exposed to stressful environmental challenges, the response varies widely in one or more of three components: psychology, behavior and physiology. This variability among individuals can be defined as temperament. In recent years, an increasing large body of evidence suggests that the dimensions of temperament, as well as ...

[Gene polymorphisms].

Bulletin du cancer, 2010
Cancers can be considered as gene diseases. A number of mechanisms leading to cancer have been identified through the discovery of structural alterations of genes called 'oncogenes' and 'tumour suppressor genes'. Somatic and germinal mutations are rare but play a determinant role in the emergence of cancer, while common and frequent variations ...

Polymorphisms in Candidate Asthma Genes

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2001
The triad of reversible airway obstruction, bronchial hyperresponsiveness, and airway inflammation characterizes asthma. The etiology of asthma is complex and involves the interaction of multiple genetic foci and a variety of environmental factors, such as protein allergens, chemical sensitizers, and viral or bacterial proteins.

HLA Gene Polymorphism: Class II

1984
Restriction fragment length polymorphism was analyzed in 92 independent chromosomes. DNA samples from 23 families were digested with restriction enzymes, as specified below. Various restriction fragments showed variation in these families. Each fragment was assigned to the corresponding parental haplotype according to its segregation.
