Impaired Homocysteine Metabolism Associated with High Plasma Interleukin- 17A Levels, a Pro-Atherogenic Marker, in an Endogamous Population of North India
None of the physiological, anthropometric and lipid variables were different between the two groups. Foxp3 mRNA expression levels were relatively lower, and plasma IL-10 levels were found to be comparable among IHM and NHM group. However, significantly higher IL-17A levels and relatively high LDL cholesterol levels were present in the IHM group as compared with NHM. Our findings suggest that the Jats of Haryana, North India, exhibiting high level…
Dopaminergic D4 receptor polymorphism among 24 populations of India: An anthropological insight
Various studies have tried to elucidate the genomics underlying the ethnic diversity of Indian populations. The 48-basepair variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) of the DRD4 gene, besides its clinical importance, has been a subject of interest for understanding human evolutionary history worldwide. In spite of its highly polymorphic nature it has not been much explored by anthropologists, especially in the Indian context. In the present study, an …
Haptoglobin polymorphism among fourteen populations of India
Haptoglobin (HP) is a serum protein that has the capability of binding the extracorpuscular haemoglobin released during haemolysis. It plays an important role in protection of haemolytic disease by reducing the oxidative and peroxidative potential at free haemoglobin. The present study was aimed to determine the prevalence of HP polymorphism among different Indian populations, anthropologically belonging to diverse ethnicity. The polymorphism was…
Common genetic heritage and admixture among Indian population groups as revealed by mtDNA markers
The present study determines the inter-and intra-population affinities or variations among the diverse population groups of India. The major goal of the present study was to understand the peopling of India and its role in the peopling of Southeast Asia using 11 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) markers. A total of 950 unrelated individuals belonging to 19 population groups having varied ethnic, linguistic,…
Brief communication: Allelic and haplotypic structure at the DRD2 locus among five North Indian caste populations
The dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) gene, with its known human‐specific derived alleles that can facilitate haplotype reconstruction, presents an important locus for anthropological studies. The three sites ( TaqIA , TaqIB , and TaqID ) of the DRD2 gene are widely studied in various world populations. However, no work has been previously published on DRD2 gene polymorphisms among North Indian populations. Thus, the present study attempts to understan…
