New susceptibility loci associated with kidney disease in type 1 diabetes.

Niina Sandholm, +105 more
- 20 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies of T1D DN revealed association of two SNPs with ESRD in the AFF3 gene and an intergenic SNP on chromosome 15q26 between the genes RGMA and MCTP2, which represent new signals in the pathogenesis of DN.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Osthole on Migration and Invasion in Breast Cancer Cells

TL;DR: It is found that Osthole is effective in inhibiting the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells by wound healing and transwellAssays and indicates a need for further evaluation of Osthole in breast cancer chemotherapy and chemoprevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of the Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 α (HIF1A) Pro582Ser Polymorphism on Diabetes Nephropathy

TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that HIF1A Pro582Ser polymorphism has an effect on DN, possibly by conferring a relative resistance to the repressive effect of glucose on HIF-1α.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased DNA methylation levels of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 gene are associated with type 2 diabetes in Swedish men.

TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence that changes in DNA methylation of the IGFBP1 gene are associated with type 2 diabetes in Swedish men and suggests that increased IGF BP1 DNA methylations and decreased IGFBP-1 serum levels are features of type 2abetes with a short duration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic analyses of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 gene in type 1 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy

TL;DR: This study shows for the first time that T1D patients had decreased DNA methylation levels in the IGFBP1 gene and further implies that increased circulating IGFBP-1 levels are associated with T 1D and DN.
