P-41: Association Study of MICA*008 Gene Polymorphism with Chlamydia Trachomatis Infection in Infertile Men Reffer to Royan Institute
Background: Chlamydia trachomatis(CT) is an obligate intracellular bacteria, requires living cells to replicate itself. CT infection can remain up to 4 years in the couple and affect their fertility. The relationship between CT and infertility is very important because most patients are asymptomatic and untreated. After infection with CT, NK activation signals begin through interactions of its ...
متن کاملWaddlia chondrophila and Chlamydia trachomatis antibodies in screening infertile women for tubal pathology.
Since Waddlia chondrophila is closely related to Chlamydia trachomatis, we hypothesise that W. chondrophila may also be associated with tubal factor infertility (TFI) in women, a major complication of chronic C. trachomatis infection. Five hundred twenty serum samples were tested for anti-Waddlia antibodies by ELISA. Among the 520 investigated women, a total number of 142 (27.3%) has had laparo...
متن کاملP-204: Relative Frequency of Chlamydia Trachomatis Infection in Infertile Women
Background: The majority of Chlamydia trachomatis infections in women are asymptomatic, but they may give rise to tubal infertility. Screening programmes aim at reducing morbidity in individual by early detect and treatment, and at decreasing the overall prevalence of infection in the population. Materials and Methods: A total of 135 women presenting with a history of infertility(n=113(83.7%) p...
متن کاملScreening for Chlamydia trachomatis infection among infertile women
Chlamydia trachomatis infection is a worldwide distributed sexually-transmitted infection that may lead to infertility. This study aims to report the prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis infection among infertile women in Saudi Arabia. A community-based study, carried out at obstetrics and gynaecology clinic at Jazan General Hospital, Saudi Arabia. The study-group included 640 infertile women wh...
متن کاملInterleukin-1B (IL-1B) and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RN) gene polymorphisms are not associated with tubal pathology and Chlamydia trachomatis-related tubal factor subfertility.
BACKGROUND Chlamydia trachomatis infections have been associated with tubal pathology. However, not all C.trachomatis-infected women actually develop tubal pathology. Recently, host genetic factors such as the interleukin-1 gene cluster have been linked to inflammatory and infectious diseases. METHODS Dutch Caucasian women were investigated for (i) the role of interleukin-1B (IL-1B) and inter...
