        Mitochondrial DNA 4977-bp deletion in endometriosis

        Elnaz Salahi,Zivar Salehi,Ziba Zahiri,Saeedeh Sadri,Niloofar Khoshdel Rad 한국유전학회 2013 Genes & Genomics Vol.35 No.5

        Endometriosis is a multifactorial gynecological condition characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial and stromal tissue outside the uterus. Free radicals and Oxidative stress have been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of the endometriosis. It has been shown that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is particularly susceptible to oxidative damage and mutations due to the high rate of reactive oxygen species production and limited DNA repair capacity in mitochondria. While a number of deletions can occur, the most commonly studied in human is a 4977-bp deletion that removes all or parts of the genes for NADH dehydrogenase subunits 3, 4, 4L and 5, cytochrome C oxidase subunit III and ATP synthase subunits 6 and 8.’’ We evaluated whether mtDNA common deletion is related with the susceptibility to endometriosis in northern Iran. In this study 80 endometriosis cases and 100 controls were enrolled. Total DNA was extracted from endometrial tissue samples. The mitochondrial common deletion was determined by Gap- polymerase chain reaction (Gap-PCR). It was found that the mitochondrial common deletion was more likely to be present in patients with endometriosis. Assessing indicate that 60 % of patients and 8 % of controls show mtDNA 4977-bp deletion (Odds Ratio [OR] = 17.25, P\0.0001, confidence interval [CI] = 5.18–57.36). The mtDNA 4977 deletion may play a role in endometriosis. Further studies with larger numbers of patients are required for further evaluation and confirmation of our finding.

      • Effects of p53 Codon 72 and MDM2 SNP309 Polymorphisms on Gastric Cancer Risk among the Iranian Population

        Moradi, Mohammad-Taher,Salehi, Zivar,Aminian, Keyvan,Yazdanbod, Abbas Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.17

        Background: Development of gastric cancer (GC) is a multistep process that requires alterations in the expression of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, occurring over several decades. The p53 tumor suppressor protein is involved in cell-cycle control, apoptosis and DNA repair. One of the most important regulators of p53 is MDM2, which acts as a negative regulator in the p53 pathway. Based on the key role of p53 and MDM2 in tumor suppression, polymorphisms that cause change in their function might affect cancer risk. We therefore elevated associations of the polymorphisms of p53 (R72P) and MDM2 (SNP309) with GC in Iran. Materials and Methods: A total of 104 patients with gastric cancer and 100 controls were recruited. Genomic DNA was extracted from fresh gastric samples. Genotyping of the p53 and MDM2 genes was performed using allele specific PCR (AS-PCR). Results: There was no significant difference between the p53 codon 72 polymorphism distribution in control and patient groups (p=0.54), but the G allele of MDM2 was found to be over-represented in patients (p=0. 01, Odds Ratio=2. 08, 95% Confidence Interval= 1.37-4.34). Conclusions: The p53 R72P seems not to be a potential risk factor for development of GC among Iranian patients, but our data suggest that MDM2 SNP309 might modify the risk related to GC.
