This study investigated whether the musculo-skeletal response to Vitamin D was modulated by polymorphisms in VDR gene.
In an early imaging genetics study involving the attention network task flanker elicited BOLD response in the anterior cingulated cortex was modulated by polymorphisms in the dopamine receptor gene DRD4 and the monoamine oxidase A gene (MAOA) [81].
The susceptibility to scrapie is modulated by polymorphisms of the sheep prion protein (PrP) gene.
ROS production Initially we wanted to know if mitochondrial ROS production was modulated by polymorphisms in mtDNA so we decided to create new strains of Drosophila melanogaster putting the mitochondrial genome of OR flies in a DAH nuclear background (and vice versa).
The dietary effects may be modulated by genetic polymorphisms in biotransformation genes.
Dietary effects might be modulated by genetic polymorphisms in biotransformation genes [ 15].
Finally, we have investigated protection from colorectal cancer by NSAIDs and whether it might be modulated by PTGS2 polymorphisms.
The efficiency of the placenta as a barrier against the passage of Cd might be modulated by maternal polymorphisms in genes that code for metal-binding metallothionein protein (Tekin et al. 2011a).
CCND1 alternative splice could be modulated by a common G870A polymorphism within the splice donor site [ 4].
A reasonable biologic explanation for this link is that the MMP-9 transcriptional activity can be modulated by MMP-9−1562C/T gene promoter polymorphism contributing to periodontal breakdown.
