Antibodies to Plasmid-encoded Proteins of Enteropathogenic Yersinia in Patients with Autoimmune Thyroid Disease
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Neomycin and lactulose are thought to exert their influence on hepatic coma exclusively by interfering with the bacterial flora, but our results suggest a potential additional effect, namely interference with glutamine-dependent non-bacterial ammonia production.9 This glutamine-dependent ammonia production may exceed by far the bacterial ammonia production. We suggest that the mechanism of action of lactulose and neomycin will be better understood when , the potential influence of these compounds on non-bacterial ammonia generation is taken into account.

متن کاملVitiligo and auto immune diseases: A survey of 100 patients
Vitiligo is an autoimmune skin disease which is characterized by depigmented patches due to loss of pigment cells. Evidence suggests that cell-mediated immunity plays a role in melanocyte destruction while some patients have antibodies to melanocytes or melanocytic proteins. Vitiligo is strongly associated with a number of autoimmune disorders. Autoimmune thyroiditis is the most prevalent disea...
متن کاملInfection by Cag A Positive Strains of Helicobacter pylori is Associated with Autoimmune Thyroid Disease in Iranian Patients
Background: Infectious agents have been suspected as a triggering factor for development of autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD). Some reports from Western countries have suggested association between Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection and ATD. Objective: To investigate the association of ATD with Cag A seropositivity in a population with high rate and early age of onset of HP infection. Methods: I...
