This review was conducted to systematize data on the association of matrix proteinase gene polymorphisms (MMP, ADAMTS, ADAM) with the risk of developing osteoarthritis. Material and methods. A systematic literature search of PubMed and Web of Science databases…
The aim of the study. To describe the interaction between Helicobacter pylori and Toll-like receptors, and to outline the role of TLRs gene polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of this infection. Material and methods. An analysis of publications from 2000 to 2025…
Introduction. There is a steady increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes worldwide. One of the most formidable complications of this pathology is the development of diabetic foot syndrome, which is accompanied by up to 50% of cases of high amputations, dis…
Introduction: nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide. But it remains unclear what factors influence the progression of the disease. It is interesting to study the influence of the genetic aspect on the course of NAF…
The neurotrophic hypothesis of depressive disorders has gained widespread recognition nowadays. This review is devoted to the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) system in the pathogenesis of depression and major depressive disorder. We describe the struc…
Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease represent one of the most pressing problems of modern medicine. Even though much attention paid to the development and implementation of high-tech diagnostic methods, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) tend to increase in …
Introduction. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease with complex etiology including inheritable factors as well. Some scientists suggest psoriasis to be a systemic disease affecting not only skin. Thus, on the edge of dermatology and psychiatr…
Introduction. The androgen receptor (AR) gene MIGHR is known to be associated with transsexualism. Bone tissue is one of the target organs for androgens. Trochanteric index (TI) (ratio of height to the leg length) may indicate the organism androgenization leve…
Introduction. The study of the genetic mechanisms of migraines is based on the investigation of genes of possible susceptibility and analysis of the influence of gene polymorphism in combination with environmental factors that form the pathogenetic chain of th…
Introduction. In recent years, there have been aroused and actively studied mutations associated with Toll-like receptor genes (TLRs). The emerging interest is related to the identification of many associations between the TLRs polymorphism and the development…
Introduction. The origin of the genetic predisposition to family adenomatous polyposis is associated with functional disorders of the repair system. The molecular mechanism of this phenomenon is not sufficiently studied and need clarification. The aim of the s…
Introduction. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), in particular, its exudative form, has for many years held a leading position in the causes of the loss of visual acuity and leads to blindness in 90% of elderly cases. The loss of central vision is based o…
Introduction. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are widely spread as antisecretory drugs for a treatment of acid diseases, such as the gastric ulcer. Most of the proton pump inhibitors are inactivated in the liver by cytochromes P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) to the form of i…
Currently, tuberculosis is the second leading cause of death from an infectious agent in the world and an important social and medical-biological problem. The first-line drug isoniazid is one of the most effective antituberculosisdrug, however it has a wide sp…
Introduction. Carrier protein OATP1B1, encoded by the SLCO1B1gene, is involved in the transport of simvastatin into liver cells. SLCO1B1 gene polymorphisms influence on the functionality of the transporter, which could reflect on the efficacy and safety of tre…
Introduction. Erysipelas is characterized by consistently high morbidity rate, pronounced tendency to recur, the frequent change of lymph circulation, formation of secondary elephantiasis and others symptoms. The prediction of the course of erysipelas is unres…
Association of adrenergic receptors gene polymorphisms in overweight persons has been shown by Gagnon J. et al. in 1996. For the locus Trp64Arg (rs4994) β3-adrenoceptor gene was shown to be associated with the risk of obesity, confirmed by the works of a numbe…
Introduction. Valvular calcification precedes the development of valvular stenosis. Currently, there being no way to effectively prevent the valvular heart disease progression, and valve replacement remains to be the only treatment option. Aim. To investigate …
Introduction. Pathogenesis of infective endocarditis (IE) is not quite clear till now. In last years research of variants of the genes connected with pathogenesis of IE was performed. The aim. The investigation of IE association with gene single-nucleotide pol…
Introduction. Atherosclerosis, manifesting itself as acute coronary syndrome, stroke, and peripheral artery disease, is a chronic progressive inflammatory disease driven by both innate and adaptive immunity. As Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells-1 …
