Effect of ID ACE gene polymorphism on dietary composition and obesity-related anthropometric parameters in the Czech adult population.

Genes & nutrition

Bienertova-Vasku J, Bienert P, Sablikova L, Slovackova L, Forejt M, Piskackova Z, Kucerova L, Heczkova K, Brazdova Z, Vasku A.
PMID: 19609587
Genes Nutr. 2009 Sep;4(3):207-13. doi: 10.1007/s12263-009-0130-9. Epub 2009 Jul 16.

The aim of this study was to investigate the possible associations between insertion/deletion (ID) polymorphism in angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) (dbSNP rs 4646994) with the food intake and body composition in the Czech non-obese, obese and extremely obese populations. A...

Pharmacogenetic contribution of leptin gene polymorphism in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

International journal of clinical and experimental pathology

Vasku V, Vasku A, Vasku JB.
PMID: 19079651
Int J Clin Exp Pathol. 2009;2(2):163-8. Epub 2008 Jul 18.

Leptin has recently attracted more attention due to its specific effects in the pathogenesis of malignancies. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible association between variants of -2548 G/A polymorphism in leptin (LEP) gene and cutaneous...

Study of Interactions between Metallothionein and Cisplatin by using Differential Pulse Voltammetry Brdickás reaction and Quartz Crystal Microbalance.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)

Huska D, Fabrik I, Baloun J, Adam V, Masarik M, Hubalek J, Vasku A, Trnkova L, Horna A, Zeman L, Kizek R.
PMID: 22573958
Sensors (Basel). 2009;9(3):1355-69. doi: 10.3390/s90301355. Epub 2009 Feb 26.

Treatment strategies for tumour diseases are progressively focusing on personalization of medicine. However, this focus requires methods revealing the early general biological mechanisms, including the formation anti-cancer drugs' resistance. The low molecular mass protein metallothionein is thought to be...

Circulating Levels of Agouti-Related Peptide in Endometrial Cancer Survivors.

World journal of oncology

Bienertova-Vasku J, Tomandl J, Bienert P, Chovanec J, Dostalova Z, Vasku A, Valik D.
PMID: 29147253
World J Oncol. 2011 Oct;2(5):232-237. doi: 10.4021/wjon385w. Epub 2011 Oct 28.

BACKGROUND: Recently, it has been reported that central administration of agouti-related peptide (AgRP) might have protective effect against cachexia development in tumor-bearing mice. In this study, we determined whether the disease-free endometrial cancer survivors present with different plasma AgRP...

Polymorphism in miR-31 and miR-584 binding site in the angiotensinogen gene differentially influences body fat distribution in both sexes.

Genes & nutrition

Machal J, Novak J, Hezova R, Zlamal F, Vasku A, Slaby O, Bienertova-Vasku J.

Genes Nutr. 2015 Sep;10(5):488. doi: 10.1007/s12263-015-0488-9. Epub 2015 Aug 26.

Angiotensinogen (AGT), its active fragments and microRNA-31 (miR-31) play an important role in adipocyte differentiation. AGT contains a miR-31 polymorphic binding site. We hypothesize that the rs7079 polymorphism in the miR-31/584 binding site of the AGT gene could influence...

Association of three polymorphisms in the gene coding for endothelin-1 with essential hypertension, overweight and smoking.

Experimental and clinical cardiology

Vasku A, Tschöplova S, Muzik J, Soucek M, Vacha J.
PMID: 19644593
Exp Clin Cardiol. 2002;7(4):201-4.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association of three endothelin-1 (ET-1) gene polymorphisms with essential hypertension, as well as with two cardiovascular risk factors: body mass index (BMI) and smoking.DESIGN: Three gene polymorphisms and the genotype and allelic distributions were compared...
