The Distribution Frequency of Interferon-Gamma Receptor 1 Gene Polymorphisms in Interferon-γ Release Assay-Positive Patients
Tuberculosis is caused by mycobacterium, a potentially fatal infectious bacterium. In recent years, TB cases increased in the whole world. WHO statistics data shows that the world's annual tuberculosis incidence was 8~10 million with about 3 million deaths. Several studies have shown that susceptibility to tuberculosis may be associated with IFNGR1 gene polymorphisms. Here, we report the distri...

tive except for a 1-kg weight loss in the preceding 4 months. His social history was notable for living in South Korea his entire life until immigrating to the United States 10 years prior to his present illness, with no intercurrent travel since that time. On physical examination, his vital signs were notable for a temperature of 37.9 ° C with normal respiratory rate and pulse oximetry on room...
متن کاملInterferon-Gamma Gene Polymorphism in Patients with Tuberculosis
Abstract Background and objectives: Interferon-Gamma and interferon Gamma receptor (IFNγ ⁄ IFNγR1) are the main genes associated with susceptibility to tuberculosis. We aimed at studying on interferon-Gamma Gene polymorphism(- 56 C/T) in people suffered from tuberculosis (TB). Material and Methods: In this case-control study, the subjects were 62 individuals with TB and 74 hea...

Agradecemos a los autores Ramos y cols. de Perú, su interés en los resultados de nuestro estudio. En Latinoamérica, dentro de las limitantes para el uso extensivo de tuberculina en la población mayor de 15 años están por un lado la dificultad de su interpretación por las altas tasas de vacunación con BCG en la infancia y por otro lado, los altos índices de infección que se vivieron al final del...
متن کاملInfluence of Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms on Response to Pegylated Interferon in Chronic Hepatitis B Egyptian Patients
Background: We explored the effect of vitamin D receptor gene (VDR) polymorphisms in response to PEG-IFN treatment in Egyptian chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. Methods: Two hundred hepatitis B virus (HBV) patients (42.3±10.7 years) on PEG-IFN α-2a (180 μg /kg for 48 weeks) and one hundred control subjects (37.3 ±12 years) were enrolled in the study. Vitamin D levels a...
