Renal cancer is among the most common oncourological diseases, and represents a heterogeneous group of tumors, which up to 80% is a clear cell renal cancer (CCRC). The study of rare hereditary forms of CCRC led to identification of the VHL gene; germinal VHL m…
Introduction. The ACTA2 gene encodes α-actin in aortic smooth muscle cells, and its mutations may cause thoracic aortic aneurysms. Analysis of ACTA2 polymorphism can be used in a complex risk assessment of non-familial thoracic aortic aneurysms. The aim of the…
Introduction. Mutations in the tumor suppressor gene TP53 are observed approximately in the half of all human malignancies. In bladder cancer (BC), ТР53 molecular alterations were shown to be associated with more aggressive tumor phenotype; however their clini…
Introduction. Most cases of gastric cancer (GC) occur sporadically. Until recently, diffuse hereditary gastric cancer associated with the CDH1 gene mutations was considered the only hereditary form (about 1–3% of all tumors of the stomach). However, a signific…
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most prevalent form of malignant liver cancer characterized by late detection time and highly aggressiveness. The main risk factors for HCC development are chronic infections of hepatitis B and C viruses, cirrhosis, liver …
The key role in the achievement of the main goals of personalized medicine in oncology i.e. treatment choice according to patient’s individual characteristics and biological properties of the tumor belongs to tumor molecular markers characterizing the specific…
Introduction. Preeclampsia is one of the most frequent complications of pregnancy. Disease is based on the pathology of the vascular system of a pregnant woman. One of the candidate genes of preeclampsia is a gene encoding a protein receptor type 2A to activin…
Introduction. The prevalence of human cutaneous melanoma (CM) in the world is constantly rising. Diagnostics and treatment of CM at the early stages allows to increase the 5-year patient survival up to 90%. This problem can be solved with personalized therapy …
Introduction. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetically heterogeneous disease caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins of the cardiac sarcomere. Mutations in the genes encoding β-myosin heavy chain (MYH7) and myosin binding protein C (MYB…
Introduction.The rs8175347 ((TA)5/6/7/8) in the UGT1A1 gene polymorphism is associated with the expression of UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 enzyme. The low enzyme activity in patients with (TA)7 and (TA)8 alleles is associated with the risk of Gilbert syndro…
Aim. To study a method of risk assessment neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with the genetic and clinical risk factors. Methods. The study included 255 patients with neovascular AMD (NVAMD) and 119 subjects in control group. Diagnosis and stag…
Staphylococcus aureus is a common human pathogen. In the past few decades, infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have become a global problem. MRSA is resistant to all β-lactam antibiotics, except anti-MRSA cephems, and is one…
Personalized therapy allows to reveal subtypes of diseases with similar symptoms but various molecular mechanisms of development. Different -omics (genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics ets) are used to divide the diseases into subtypes. Transcrip…
