It was estimated that the prevalence of stunting in Asian countries ranges from 30% - 69%. Stunting occurs due to the interplay of genetic and environmental factors. The susceptible genes involve in hormone signalling, paracrine factor, matric molecules, intercellular pathways and cellular processes of epiphyseal growth plate. Many genetic studies conducted among stunted children has elucidated the role of genes in affecting the attribute factors such as low birth weight, socio-economy, poor preventive health care and others. Whole genome sequencing revealed potential putative genes which involve in different pathways in related to retarded epiphyseal growth plate in various Asian countries such <em>GHSR, GH1, GHRHR, STAT5B, IGF1, COMP</em> and many more associated genes. The data emphasize that these potential genetic markers may provide better treatment in targeting the related pathophysiology in stunting development.

Genotyping was conducted using the PCR-RFLP technique.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>In case of <em>TP53</em> gene rs1042522, the association analysis revealed that all genetic models were linked with significantly increased risk for prostate cancer development (CG vs. CC: OR = 1.99, <em>p</em> = 0.001; GG vs. CC: OR = 4.82, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.00; CG vs. CC + GG: OR = 1.52, <em>p</em> = 0.041; CG + GG vs. CC: OR = 2.44, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.00; GG vs. CC + CG: OR = 3.64, <em>p</em> = 0.00; G vs. C: OR = 2.32, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.00). Again, the second variant rs16260 in <em>CDH1</em> gene also showed significantly enhanced association in all genetic models for the development of prostate cancer (CA vs. CC: OR = 2.20, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.00; AA vs. CC: OR = 2.77, <em>p</em> = 0.012; CA vs. CC + AA: OR = 1.98, <em>p</em> = 0.001; CA + AA vs. CC: OR = 2.29, <em>p</em> = 0.00; A vs. C: OR = 1.99, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.00) except the AA vs. CC + CA model.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Our study indicates a significant association of <em>TP53</em> rs1042522 and <em>CDH1</em> rs16260 polymorphisms with increased prostate cancer risk in the Bangladeshi population. However, replication studies are required in different populations to validate our findings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":38190,"journal":{"name":"Meta Gene","volume":"30 ","pages":"Article 100962"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.mgene.2021.100962","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48009983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
