Lipoprotein lipase gene polymorphisms: associations with myocardial infarction and lipoprotein levels, the ECTIM study. Etude Cas Témoin sur l'Infarctus du Myocarde.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1996
Several lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene polymorphisms have been found associated with fasting lipid levels, but their impact on coronary heart disease (CHD) is less clearly established.

Common promoter variant in cyclooxygenase-2 represses gene expression: evidence of role in acute-phase inflammatory response [PDF]

, 2002
Objective: Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is a key regulatory enzyme in the synthesis of prostanoids associated with trauma and inflammation. We investigated the COX-2 gene for functional variants that may influence susceptibility to disease.

Symbiotic and genetic diversity of Rhizobium galegae isolates collected from the Galega orientalis gene center in the Caucasus [PDF]

, 2003
This paper explores the relationship between the genetic diversity of rhizobia and the morphological diversity of their plant hosts. Rhizobium galegae strains were isolated from nodules of wild Galega orientalis and Galega officinalis in the Caucasus ...

HINDIII AND S447X POLYMORPHISMS OF LIPOPROTEIN LIPASE GENE AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE [PDF]

The Egyptian Journal of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2016
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Lipoprotein lipase is a key enzyme in lipoprotein metabolism and its gene is a major candidate gene for coronary heart disease. The aim of the present work was to study the association of HindIII and S447X polymorphisms in lipoprotein lipase gene with coronary artery

Additive effects of LPL, APOA5 and APOE variant combinations on triglyceride levels and hypertriglyceridemia: results of the ICARIA genetic sub-study

BMC Medical Genetics, 2010
Background Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is a well-established independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and the influence of several genetic variants in genes related with triglyceride (TG) metabolism has been described, including LPL, APOA5 and ...

Genetic Polymorphism and Association of KAP16.6 Gene with Pashmina Fiber Traits in Changthangi Goats

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Pashmina is the fine undercoat of the Changthangi goats (Capra hircus) with Keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) as one of its main structural components. KAPs form a semi-rigid matrix in which the Keratin intermediate filaments (KIFs) are embedded. In the

Differentiation of Pseudomonas syringae subsp. savastonoi strains isolated from various host plants by restriction fragment lengh polymorphism

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2002
A 1.8 kb DNA fragment encoding a putative protein similar to precorrin-3 methylase, a protein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa involved in cobalamin biosynthesis, was cloned from an olive strain of the plant pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae subsp ...

An Elite Haplotype of Nitrogen‐Use‐Efficiency Gene LHT5 Enhances Salt Tolerance in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amino acids serve as fundamental building blocks and signalling molecules in plants, orchestrating stress adaptation mechanisms against diverse biotic and abiotic environmental challenges. However, the mechanism by which plants alter their nutrient metabolism processes to coordinate nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and salt tolerance remains ...

Polymorphism of the complement receptor 1 gene correlates with the hematologic response to eculizumab in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria

Haematologica, 2014
Complement blockade by eculizumab is clinically effective in hemolytic paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. However, the response is variable and some patients remain dependent on red blood cell transfusions.
