CAG repeat polymorphism of androgen receptor gene and X-chromosome inactivation in daughters of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): Relationship with endocrine and metabolic parameters
(2012)
Background: The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hyperandrogenic disorder that arise from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Aim: To assess the role of the androgen receptor (AR) CAG repeat polymorphism ...
Androgen receptor CAG and GGN polymorphisms in boys with isolated hypospadias
(2012)
Background: The etiology of hypospadias is multifactorial. Abnormal androgenic secretion and/or action during the development of external genitalia may be involved in the etiology of this congenital malformation. This study ...
Androgen Receptor CAG Repeat Polymorphism Is Not Associated With Erectile Dysfunction Complaints, Gonadal Steroids, and Sleep Parameters: Data From a Population-Based Survey
(Amer Soc Andrology, Inc, 2011-09-01)
Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be affected by androgen levels, which exert their action through the androgen receptor (AR). Androgenic action has been demonstrated to inversely correlate with a polymorphic trinucleotide CAG ...
Role of the Androgen Receptor Gene CAG Repeat Polymorphism on the Sequence of Pubertal Events and Adiposity in Girls with High Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate Level
(Elsevier USA, 2019)
Study Objective: The androgen receptor (AR) harbors a variable repeat number of glutamine residues codified by (CAG)n, which seems to inversely affect AR transcriptional activity. We assessed whether (CAG)n affects the ...
Androgen receptor gene CAG and GGN repeat polymorphisms in Chilean men with primary severe spermatogenic failure
(2010)
There is ample documentation supporting the fact that androgens are required for normal spermatogenesis. A minority of infertile men have abnormal testosterone blood levels or mild androgen receptor mutations. We investigated ...
Androgen receptor gene and sociosexuality. Does fighting ability moderate the effect of genetics in reproductive strategies?
(2022-12)
Sociosexuality is a reliable proxy to evaluate the trade-off between short-term and long-term human mating strategies. The androgen receptor (AR) gene CAG-repeats polymorphism regulates the effect of testosterone and the ...
Novel Risk Associations between microRNA Polymorphisms and Gastric Cancer in a Chilean Population
(2022)
Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths in the world, with variations across geographical regions and ethnicities. Emerging evidence indicates that miRNA expression is dysregulated in GC and its ...
Relation of atrophic gastritis with Helicobacter pylori-CagA+ and interleukin-1 polymorphisms
(World Journal Gastroenterol 14(42), 2008-11-14)
AIM: To determine the association of Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) CagA+ infection and pro-inflammatory polymorphisms of the genes interleukin (IL)-1RN and IL-1B with the risk of gastric atrophy and peptic ulcers in a ...
