Impact of the Functional VNTR Variants of the Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist and Interleukin-4 Genes on Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

İstanbul Medical Journal, 2019
Introduction:It has been shown that the host immune response and chronic inflammation could play a role as important risk factors for cancer. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common cancer worldwide. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact

Non‐canonical nitric oxide signalling and DNA methylation: Inflammation induced epigenetic alterations and potential drug targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 1, Page 24-39, January 2026.
Abstract DNA methylation controls DNA accessibility to transcription factors and other regulatory proteins, thereby affecting gene expression and hence cellular identity and function. As epigenetic modifications control the transcriptome, epigenetic dysfunction is strongly associated with pathological conditions and ageing.

AIRE's Complex Role Beyond Promiscuous Gene Expression

Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Central tolerance, established in the thymus, ensures T cells are nonreactive to self‐antigens while maintaining a functional immune repertoire. Medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) and thymic dendritic cells (DCs) play a crucial role in this mechanism by orchestrating the selection and deletion of autoreactive thymocytes, a process ...

Characterization of the COL2A1 VNTR Polymorphism

Genomics, 1993
The variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) region 3' to the collagen type II gene (COL2A1) was amplified in vitro by the polymerase chain reaction. Subsequent high-resolution gel electrophoresis showed that the five earlier reported alleles could be further subtyped.

Mucin variable number tandem repeat polymorphisms and severity of cystic fibrosis lung disease: significant association with MUC5AC. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Variability in cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease is partially due to non-CFTR genetic modifiers. Mucin genes are very polymorphic, and mucins play a key role in the pathogenesis of CF lung disease; therefore, mucin genes are strong candidates as genetic ...
