Abstract
Objectives This study investigated the role of glutathione-S-transferase gene (GSTM1 and GSTT1) polymorphisms in the predisposition of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with or without diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods The case-control study included 188 subjects: 50 T2DM with DR, 63 T2DM without DR, and 75 healthy individuals' presenting no clinical signs or evidence of diabetes mellitus. Zinc and magnesium levels were measured using a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer, and the lipid profile was evaluated using standard methods. The gene polymorphism of GSTs was performed by the multiplex-PCR method. Results Compared to the control, DR and T2DM had considerably greater total cholesterol, LDL-C, and decreased HDL-C levels. Magnesium levels were significantly lower in DR and T2DM than in control. Total cholesterol, LDL, TG, and magnesium levels didn't differ significantly between DR and T2DM groups. In DR, the GSTT1-null genotype was more prevalent than in T2DM subjects and controls (26.0%, 12.7%, and 10.7%, respectively). GSTT1-null genotype was considerably more common in DR than in controls and associated with 2.94-folds enhancing the chance of developing DR (OR = 2.94; 95% CI = 1.12-7.75; p = 0.02). However, the recurrence of GSTM1-null genotype was not clearly distinguishable among these three populations (28.0%, 38.1% and 29.3%, respectively) and not particularly prone to the risk of DR compared to T2DM subjects and controls (OR = 0.63; 95% CI = 0.28-1.41; p = 0.26; OR = 0.94; 95% CI = 0.42-2.07; p = 0.87, respectively). Conclusions Taken together, these findings suggest the potential role of GSTT1 deletion mutation as a risk factor for the vulnerability of DR among T2DM patients in the Bangladeshi population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 are biologically potential genes responsible for prostate cancer. AIM We aimed to analyse the expression and association of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 genes in prostate cancer. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Web-based bioinformatics tools were used to assess the association of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 genes with prostate cancer risks. A case-control study of 210 prostate cancer cases and 207 controls was also approved to determine the allelic variants of the CYP3A4 gene- rs2740574 (CYP3A4*1B) and the variant of CYP3A5 gene-rs776746 (CYP3A5*3) using Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The risk of prostate cancer was estimated as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) using unrestricted logistic regression models. RESULTS Our in silico data confirmed that both CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 genes are significantly associated with higher prostate cancer risks. In the case of CYP3A4*1B polymorphism, the heterozygote (*1 A/*1B), mutant (*1B/*1B), and combined heterozygote plus mutant (*1A/*1B+*1B/*1B) genotypes showed 3.52-fold, 3.90-fold, and 3.67-fold increased risk of prostate cancer, respectively. In the case of CYP3A5*3 polymorphism, the heterozygote (*1/*3), mutant (*3/*3), and combined (*1/*3+*3/*3) genotypes were found to be significantly associated with 5.11-, 5.49-, and 5.28-fold greater risk of prostate cancer, respectively. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that CYP3A4*1B and CYP3A5*3 are significantly associated with increased prostate cancer risk.KEY MESSAGESBioinformatics tools were used and concluded that the CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 genes were significantly associated with the development and progression of prostate cancer.CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 polymorphisms were significantly associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer.Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) was used to estimate polymorphisms of prostate cancer progression in the Bangladeshi population.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the major health burdens worldwide, and genetic polymorphisms in individuals are closely associated with cancer susceptibility. Like in many other developing countries, the risk of cancer is increasing among Bangladeshi population. Genetic polymorphisms in xenobiotic metabolic enzymes (CYP1A1, CYP2A6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, NAT2, SULT1A), cell cycle regulatory proteins (TP53, HER2, MDM2, miR-218-2, TGFB), cell signaling protein (CDH1), DNA repair proteins (BRCA1, BRCA2, EXO1, RAD51, XRCC2, ECCR1, ERCC4, XPC, ERCC2), and others (HLA-DRB1, INSIG2, GCNT1P5) have been found to be associated with various cancers like cancers of breast, bladder, cervix, colon, lung, prostate, etc. in different studies with Bangladeshi population. In this review article, we have discussed these gene polymorphisms associated with cancers in the Bangladeshi population, and also made a comparison with other ethnic groups. This will probably be helpful in understanding drug effects, drug resistance, and personalized medicine in the population of this region.

Abstract
Non-coding variants or single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) play pivotal roles in orchestrating pathogeneses of polygenic diseases, including hypertension (HTN) and diabetes. Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components-renin and (pro)renin receptor [(P)RR]-maintain homeostasis of body fluids. Genetic variants of RAS components are associated with risk of HTN and type 2 diabetes (T2D) in different ethnic groups. We identified associations of SNPs within the renin and (P)RR genes with HTN, T2D, and T2D-associated hypertension in 911 unrelated Bangladeshi individuals. Five non-coding SNPs were involved in modulating regulatory elements in diverse cell types when tagged with other SNPs. rs61827960 was not associated with any disease; rs3730102 was associated with increased risk of HTN and T2D while under dominant model, it showed protective role against T2D-associated HTN. SNP rs11571079 was associated with increased risk of HTN and T2D-associated HTN and decreased risk of T2D, exerting a protective effect. Renin haplotypes GCA and GTG were related to increased risk of T2D and T2D-associated HTN, respectively. Heterogeneous linkage of genotypic and allelic frequencies of rs2968915 and rs3112298 of (P)RR was observed. The (P)RR haplotype GA was associated with increased risk of HTN and significantly decreased risk of T2D. These findings highlight important roles of non-coding variants of renin and (P)RR genes in the etiology of several polygenic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Past studies have established the association of CHRNA5-A3-B4 gene cluster variants with various smoking behaviors in different ethnicities, yet no such study has been reported in Bengali ethnicity to date. METHODS A case-control study with 129 smokers and 111 non-smokers was conducted and genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method aimed to manifest the association of three SNPs in this gene cluster with smoking status (SS) in a Bangladeshi population. RESULTS The non-synonymous CHRNA5 rs1s6969968 and 3'-UTR variant CHRNA3 rs578776 polymorphisms were found to have a strong association with SS. Carriers of polymorphic 'A' allele of rs16969968 showed 1.51-fold more risk of being smokers (adjusted OR = 1.51, 95% CI 0.88-2.57, p = 0.128); whereas, rs578776 polymorphic 'A' allele carriers showed 0.595-fold less risk of being smokers (adjusted OR = 1.51, 95% CI 0.88-2.57, p = 0.006). Comparing smokers and non-smokers, A/A mutant homozygous genotypes of rs578776 and rs16969968 variants pose 0.369-fold (95% CI 0.177-0.77, p = 0.008) and 3.3-fold (95% CI 0.66-16.46, p = 0.14) more risk for positive SS, respectively. No genotypic association for SS was found with intronic variant CHRNB4 rs11072768 (T/G; adjusted OR = 0.827, 95% CI 0.457-1.499, p = 0.532 and G/G; adjusted OR = 0.992, 95% CI 0.455-2.167, p = 0.985). Combination of rs16969968-positive/rs578776-negative polymorphic variants possesses the risk of positive SS in young adults. Furthermore, two new haplotypes (AAT and AAG) were identified in Bangladeshi population and GAG (OR = 0.45, 95% CI 0.25-0.8, p = 0.006) haplotype was found to be a protective factor for SS. CONCLUSION Nicotinic acetylcholine gene cluster CHRNA5-A3-B4 variants rs16969968 and rs578776 are associated with SS in a Bangladeshi population. Large-scale studies are warranted to establish this genotype-phenotype correlation.

Abstract
Telomeres are protective cap on the ends of DNA of non-coding tandem repeats of TTAGGG. Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is a catalytic subunit of telomerase that maintains the structure of telomeres. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) affects multi-organ and telomere length by altering telomerase activity. We aimed to evaluate the relative telomere length (RTL) and risk association of rs2853669 with T2D in Bangladeshi population. RTL was measured in 408 unrelated Bangladeshi (224 T2D and 184 healthy) using primers for target gene and reference gene albumin. Genotypic frequencies for rs2853669 were determined using TaqMan® probes. The mean level of age adjusted RTL (AARTL) varied significantly between the healthy and individuals with T2D for all the genotypes with respect to rs2853669. Moreover, healthy individuals had significantly higher AARTL than T2D. Similar findings were observed when study participants were stratified based on their gender. Association studies revealed that under codominant model of inheritance, TC genotype showed protective role against development of type 2 diabetes. This study suggests a possible role of telomere biology in T2DM, but their association needs to be evaluated further with a larger series and matched healthy controls.

Abstract
Objectives: In case of Bangladeshi population, no report is observed till now showing the genetic variations of RAD51 (rs1801320) and XRCC2 (rs3218536) genes polymorphism having association with colorectal cancer risk. For this reason the aim of this study is to ascertain their interrelation with colorectal cancer occurrence in Bangladeshi population. Materials and Methods: A case control study was conducted where 200 colorectal cancer patients and 200 healthy volunteers were figured for this research using Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results: Here, in case of RAD51 (rs1801320), G/C heterozygous genotype was found significant (p=0.037; OR=1.64; 95% CI=1.03 to 2.6). On the other hand, G/G genotype was not found statistically significant (p=0.423; OR=1.61; 95% CI=0.49 to 5.22) and significance was observed for GC+GG (p=0.030; OR=1.63; 95% CI=1.05 to 2.55). In case of XRCC2 (rs3218536), C/T heterozygous genotype was remarked statistically significant (p=0.033; OR=1.60; 95% CI=1.04 to 2.46). The T/T genotype was not recorded statistically significant (p=0.237; OR=1.65; 95% CI=0.72 to 3.76) but significance found for CT+TT (p=0.027; OR=1.61; 95% CI=1.05 to 2.45). Moreover, it is found that the risk factor of developing CRC is observed in G/C, C/T heterozygote and GC+GG, CT+TT (heterozygote+ mutant) in RAD51 (rs1801320) and XRCC2(rs3218536) respectively although no significance is observed in case of G/G and T/T mutant. Conclusions: So, the association of RAD51 (rs1801320) and XRCC2 (rs3218536) genes polymorphism with colorectal cancer risk is observed in Bangladeshi population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to examine the strength and consistency of the relationship between depression and diabetes in Bangladeshi population. METHODS The study was conducted at the medicine department of Bangabandhu Shiekh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) during May 2012 to May 2013. Equal number of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and non-diabetic subjects (patient attendants) were recruited from outpatient department matching for age (±2 years) and gender. Demographic and anthropometric data were collected from all the subjects. Depression was assessed using, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire. A subject with a score above 8 was considered as depressive. Baseline characteristics of diabetic and non-diabetic participants were compared using chi square test. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to assess the association between diabetes and depression adjusting for all plausible confounders in the model. RESULTS 24.8% non-diabetic and 56.2% diabetic subjects were found to have depression. Statistically significant difference was found in income, waist-to-hip ratio between diabetic and non-diabetic subjects (P<0.001). Diabetic patients show 7-fold greater odds of having depression in comparison to their non-diabetic counterpart [OR 7.0, 95% CI (3.4, 14.3)]. Female gender appeared as significant predictor of depression [OR 4.3, 95% CI (2.1, 8.9)]. CONCLUSIONS In Bangladeshi population, people with diabetes are 7 times more likely to have co-existing depression in comparison to non-diabetic subjects. Further studies are required to establish the nature of the relationship between depression and T2DM.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most frequently occurring cancers throughout the world as well as in Bangladesh. This study aimed to correlate the prognostic and/or predictive value of functional polymorphisms in SULT1A1 (rs9282861) and XRCC1 (rs25487) genes and lung cancer risk in Bangladeshi population. A case-control study was conducted which comprises 202 lung cancer patients and 242 healthy volunteers taking into account the age, sex, and smoking status. After isolation of genomic DNA, genotyping was done by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method and the lung cancer risk was evaluated as odds ratio that was adjusted for age, sex, and smoking status. A significant association was found between SULT1A1 rs9282861 and XRCC1 rs25487 polymorphisms and lung cancer risk. In case of rs9282861 polymorphism, Arg/His (adjusted odds ratio = 5.06, 95% confidence interval = 3.05-8.41, p < 0.05) and His/His (adjusted odds ratio = 3.88, 95% confidence interval = 2.20-6.82, p < 0.05) genotypes were strongly associated with increased risk of lung cancer in comparison to the Arg/Arg genotype. In case of rs25487 polymorphism, Arg/Gln heterozygote (adjusted odds ratio = 4.57, 95% confidence interval = 2.79-7.46, p < 0.05) and Gln/Gln mutant homozygote (adjusted odds ratio = 4.99, 95% confidence interval = 2.66-9.36, p < 0.05) were also found to be significantly associated with increased risk of lung cancer. This study demonstrates that the presence of His allele and Gln allele in case of SULT1A1 rs9282861 and XRCC1 rs25487, respectively, involve in lung cancer prognosis in Bangladeshi population.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate factors affecting fruit and vegetables (FAVs) intake among Bangladeshi adults. Dietary data of 9275 adults from the Bangladesh Noncommunicable Disease Risk Factor Survey 2010 were analyzed. The mean age of the respondents was 42.4 (±13.5) years. Multistage cluster sampling was applied to identify samples. Demographics, personal habits, physical activity, diet, and anthropometric data were collected using the WHO-STEPs questionnaire. Average daily intake of <5 servings of FAVs combined was considered to be low FAV consumption, and its prevalence was 82.8%. A mixed-effect logistic regression model was fitted to assess association of factors with low FAV intake. Higher educational attainment, greater wealth, female sex, low physical activity, body mass index >25 kg/m2, and smokeless tobacco consumption were significantly associated with higher FAV consumption. Frequency of low FAV intake increased with increasing age and decreased with increasing educational attainment. Programs targeting people at risk of low FAV consumption are needed to promote consumption.

Abstract
Aims/Introduction To compare the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) using the modified National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Plan III (NCEP) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) definitions and, using both definitions, determine and compare the association of MS, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, hypertension (HTN) and cardiovascular disease risk (CVD). Materials and Methods A total of 2,293 randomly selected participants (aged ≥20 years) in a rural community in Bangladesh were investigated in a population-based cross-sectional study. Sociodemographic and anthropometric characteristics, blood pressure, blood glucose, and lipid profiles were studied. Age-adjusted data for MS and cardiometabolic risk factors were assessed, and their relationships were examined. Results The age-adjusted prevalence of MS was 30.7% (males 30.5%; females 30.5%) using the NCEP definition, and 24.5% (males 19.2%, females 27.5%) using the IDF definition. The prevalence of MS using the NCEP definition was also higher in study participants with prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, HTN and CVD risk. The agreement rate between both definitions was 92% (k = 0.80). The NCEP definition had a stronger association with type 2 diabetes and HTN (odds ratio 12.4 vs 5.2; odds ratio 7.0 vs 4.7, respectively) than the IDF definition. However, the odds ratios for prediabetes and CVD risk were not significantly different. Conclusions The prevalence of MS was higher using the NCEP definition, and was more strongly associated with prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, HTN and CVD in this Bangladeshi population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amoxicillin, a semisynthetic penicillin antibiotic, is widely prescribed in Bangladesh due to its extended spectrum and its rapid and extensive oral absorption with good tolerability. Although a number of generic oral formulations of amoxicillin are available in Bangladesh, a study of the bioequivalence and pharmacokinetic properties of these formulations has not yet been conducted in a Bangladeshi population. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetic properties and bioequivalence of 2 formulations of amoxicillin 500-mg capsules (test, SK-mox(®); reference, Amoxil-Bencard(®)) using serum data. METHODS This single-dose, randomized, open-label, 2-period crossover study was conducted in healthy male subjects in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki and International Conference on Harmonisation guidelines. Subjects were assigned to receive the test or the reference drug as a single-dose, 500-mg capsule under fasting conditions after a 1-week washout period. After oral administration, blood samples were collected and analyzed for amoxicillin concentration using a validated high-performance liquid chromatography method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were determined using a noncompartmental method. The formulations were considered bioequivalent if the natural log-transformed ratios of pharmacokinetic parameters were within the predetermined equivalence range of 80% to 125%, according to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirement. RESULTS Twenty-four healthy adult male Bangladeshi volunteers (mean [SD] age, 26.92 [3.37] years; age range, 23-34 years; mean [SD] body mass index, 23.O9 [1.58] kg/m(2)) participated in the study. Using serum data, the values obtained for the test and reference formulations, respectively, were as follows: Cmax, 9.85 (2.73) and 10.63 (2.12) μg/mL; Tmax, 1.29 (0.58) and 1.33 (0.49) hours; and AUC0-12, 27.09 (7.62) and 28.56 (6.30) μg/mL · h(-1). No period, sequence, or formulation effects were observed; however, significant variation was found among subjects with regard to AUC0-12 (P < 0.001), AUC0-∞ (P = 0.002), area under the moment curve (AUMC) from 0 to 12 hours (P < 0.001), and AUMC0-∞ (P = 0.017). All CIs for the parameters measured were within the FDA-accepted limits of 80% to 125%. CONCLUSION The present study suggests that the test 500-mg amoxicillin capsule was bioequivalent to the reference 500-mg capsule according to the FDA regulatory definition, in this population of healthy adult male Bangladeshi volunteers.
