Abo blood groups and helicobacter pylori cagA infection: Evidence of an association
(2010-01-01)
Diseases resulting from Helicobacter pylori infection appear to be dependent on a host of genetic traits and virulence factors possessed by this microorganism. This paper aimed to investigate the association between the ...
cagA and vacA in strains of Helicobacter pylori from ulcer and non-ulcerative dyspepsia patients
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2002)
Background: The cytotoxin associated gene A (cagA), and the vacuolating cytotoxin gene A (vacA) of Helicobacter pylori have been associated to phenotypic characteristics of virulence. The objectives of this study were to ...
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 ...

Abstract
Background
H. pylori seroprevalence in Brazilians varies and is dependent on socioeconomic status, sanitation conditions and ethnicity; furthermore, H. pylori is not ...

The degree of external genitalia virilization in girls with 21-hydroxylase deficiency appears to be influenced by the CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene
(BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2008)
Background Women with 21-hydroxylase deficiency present much variability in external genitalia virilization, even among those with similar impairments of 21-hydroxylase (21OH) activity. Objective To evaluate if the number ...
Brain stem and cerebellum volumetric analysis of Machado Joseph disease patients
(Academia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEURO, 2011)
Machado-Joseph disease, or spinocerebellar ataxia type 3(MJD/SCA3), is the most frequent late onset spinocerebellar ataxia and results from a CAG repeat expansion in the ataxin-3 gene. Previous studies have found correlation ...
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 ...
