Protective role of Mannose binding Lectin (MBL2) promoter haplotypes on TB infection in South Indian HIV-1 patients
Conclusion In this study, we could observe MBL2 promoter haplotypes with low MBL secretion may play a protective role to intracellular mycobacterium infections like TB in HIV seropositive individuals.

متن کاملP 144: Sunflower Mannose binding Lectin-Associated Serine Protease Inhibitor-1 (SFMI-1) and -2: Significant Inhibitors of Mannose binding Lectin Pathway which Helps in Multiple Sclerosis Treatment
One of the important parts of innate immunity is complement system that occurs in three different ways; the classic, the alternative and the lectin pathway. The four pattern recognition molecules that have been identified till now are Mannose binding lectin (MBL), a component of lectin pathway, and three ficolins (ficolin1,-2 and -3) which compound to the carbohydrates of the cell surface. MBL ...
متن کاملRole of mannose-binding lectin (MBL2) genotyping in predicting the risk of recurrent otitis media (rOM).
Otitis media (OM) is the most common childhood disease. Almost all children experience at least one episode of otitis media with effusion (OME) or acute otitis (OMA) during childhood, and a substantial subgroup is confronted with recurrent episodes. If not treated adequately, OM may lead to temporary or permanent hearing loss. It is well known that bacteria and viruses cause OMA, and may play a...
متن کاملRapid communication: mapping of the Mannose-Binding Lectin 2 (MBL2) gene to pig chromosome 14.
Name of Gene Marker. MBL2, Mannose-Binding Lectin 2 (Mannose-Binding Protein, Serum; MBP1). Source and Description of Primers. Primers (set A) were designed based on human (GenBank accession number X15422) and cattle (GenBank accession number D73408) MBL2 sequences available in the GenBank database. Using porcine genomic DNA as a template in the PCR, these primers amplified an 831-bp fragment. ...
متن کاملAssociation between mannose-binding lectin variants, haplotypes and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma: A case-control study
The innate immunity gene mannose-binding lectin2 (MBL2) has played an important role in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and the relationship between MBL2 variants and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk has not yet been identified. In total, 315 HCC cases and 315 healthy controls were enrolled and blood samples were acquired. High resolution melt analysis (HRM) was employed to genotype 6 pol...
