Evaluation and Comparison of Body Mass Index and Albumin Level in Patients with Active Tuberculosis and Latent Tuberculosis Infection
Introduction: Limited data are available on the relationship between nutritional status and tuberculosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the body mass index (BMI) and serum albumin level in patients with active tuberculosis (ATB) and latent tuberculosis (LTB). Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 17 patients newly diagnosed with pulmonary TB who we...
متن کاملAnalysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Specific CD8 T-Cells in Patients with Active Tuberculosis and in Individuals with Latent Infection
CD8 T-cells contribute to control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, but little is known about the quality of the CD8 T-cell response in subjects with latent infection and in patients with active tuberculosis disease. CD8 T-cells recognizing epitopes from 6 different proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were detected by tetramer staining. Intracellular cytokines staining for specific pr...
متن کاملEvaluation of Interleukin17and Interleukin 23 expression in patients with active and latent tuberculosis infection
Objective(s): Tuberculosis is one of the most important infectious diseases with high mortality rates worldwide, especially in developing countries. Interleukin17 (IL-17) is an important acquired immunity cytokine, which is mainly produced by CD4+TH17 cells. It can recruit neutrophils and macrophages to the infected site in the lungs. IL-23 is one of the most important inducers of IL-17. In the...
متن کاملRelationship between the serum TGF beta 1 level and anti organ-specific antibodies in vitiligo patients
Background: To our knowledge, there is a hypothesis regardingthe association of vitiligo with other autoimmune disorders.Organ-specific autoantibodies are found more frequently in theserum of vitiligo patients. Recent studies have demonstratedthe role of alterations in serum transforming growth factor-beta(TGF-beta) released from regulatory T cells in the pathogenesisof depigmentation observed ...
متن کاملDeregulated lncRNAs in B Cells from Patients with Active Tuberculosis
Role of lncRNAs in human adaptive immune response to TB infection is largely unexplored. To address this issue, here we characterized lncRNA expression profile in primary human B cell response to TB infection using microarray assay. Several lncRNAs and mRNAs were chosen for RT-qPCR validation. Bioinformatics prediction was applied to delineate function of the deregulated mRNAs. We found that 84...
