HLA GENE POLYMORPHISM IN PERSONS VACCINATED AGAINST PLAGUE

Assessment of Immunologic Responses in Khaki Cambell Ducks Vaccinated Against Duck Plague

The duck plague vaccine (DPV) is locally produced from the Livestock Research Institute (LRI), Mohakhali, Dhaka which is used to control the duck plague viral disease in ducks in Bangladesh. Efficacy of this vaccine reports has no, so to say on ducks in Bangladesh. Three weeks old 50 Khaki Cambell Ducks were used to evaluate the induced of immune responses of duck plague vaccine during the peri...

HLA Class I Gene Polymorphism in Iranian Patients with Papillon-Lefevre Syndrome

Background: Papillon-Lefevre Syndrome (PLS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by diffused palmoplantar keratoderma and severe periodontitis. Increased susceptibility to infections due to impairment of the immune system is considered to be involved in pathoetiology of this disease. Objective: According to the crucial function of HLA molecules in immune responses and associati...

HLA-E gene polymorphism associates with ankylosing spondylitis in Sardinia

INTRODUCTION Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a severe, chronic inflammatory disease strongly associated with HLA-B27. The presence of additional HLA risk factors has been suggested by several studies. The aim of the current study is to assess the occurrence of an additional HLA susceptibility locus in the region between HLA-E and HLA-C in the Sardinian population. METHODS 200 random controls, ...

HLA Polymorphism in Anthropology

Humans are the most adaptable species among living organisms. Adaptation is the sum of all processes which allows the organism to cope with environmental stresses, in particular climate and topography, for its survival. All living species continuing through time and space to the present day are endowed with innate biological adaptation. The whole gamut of biological adaptation of human species ...
