Candidate SNP-markers altering TBP binding affinity for promoters of the Y-linked genes CDY2A, SHOX, and ZFY are lowering many indexes of reproductive potential in men by M. P. Ponomarenko, E. B. Sharypova, I. A. Drachkova, L. K. Savinkova, I. V. Chadaeva, D. A. Rasskazov, P. M. Ponomarenko, L. V. Osadchuk, A. V. Osadchuk

“…., SHOX: rs1452787381) and even for embryogenesis disorders (e. g., SHOX: rs28378830). This indicates a wide range of MRI indicators, alterations in which should be expected in the case of SNPs in the promoters of the human Y-chromosome genes and which can go far beyond changes in male fertility.…”

Expression pattern of lncRNA H19 in oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues in comparison to normal tissues. A systematic review by Ramya Sekar, Selvaraj Jayaraman, Saranya Varadarajan, Thodur Madapusi Balaji, Vishnupriya Veeraraghavan, Prabhu Shankar Dayasankar, Dharshini Devi J

“…A key factor in cancer biology, the long non-coding RNA H19 was first discovered for its function in embryogenesis. H19, reactivated in cancers, interacts with microRNAs and signaling pathways such as p53 and PI3K/AKT to affect tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. …”

Expression of the NUP153 and YWHAB genes from their canonical promoters and alternative promoters of the LINE-1 retrotransposon in the placenta of the first trimester of pregnancy by V. V. Demeneva, E. N. Tolmacheva, T. V. Nikitina, E. A. Sazhenova, S. Yu. Yuriev, A. Sh. Makhmutkhodzhaev, A. S. Zuev, S. A. Filatova, A. E. Dmitriev, Ya. A. Darkova, L. P. Nazarenko, I. N. Lebedev, S. A. Vasilyev

“…Thus, the observed increase in the LINE-1 methylation index in the placenta of spontaneous abortions is associated with the level of expression of the NUP153 and YWHAB genes not only from alternative but also from canonical promoters, which can subsequently lead to negative consequences for normal embryogenesis.…”
