Differential upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 in coeliac disease

association between two single base polymorphisms of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 gene and inflammatory bowel disease

aim : the present study evaluated the association between g241r and k469e polymorphisms of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 gene and inflammatory bowel disease in iranian population.   background : inflammatory bowel disease including ulcerative colitis and crohn’s disease, is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. there are two single base polymorphisms of in...

Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 gene polymorphisms in inflammatory bowel disease.

Intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 is a single-chain cell surface glycoprotein that plays an important role in the recruitment of leukocytes at sites of inflammation and is up-regulated in intestinal mucosa of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). ICAM-1 gene lies on chromosome 19p13, implicated in determining susceptibility to IBD. The human ICAM-1 gene contains two polymorphic sites in codo...
