چکیده
Schistosomiasis mansoni is a chronic liver disease that is endemic in rural areas of Egypt. Some patients may acquire infection and develop minimal complications, while others may develop severe complications and progress to portal hypertension and cirrhosis, especially if coinfected with viral hepatitis [1,2]. Egypt has the highest worldwide prevalence for the concomitant infection of schistosomiasis and viral hepatitis, where the rates vary from 19.6%-64% for the hepatitis B (HBV), and 10.3%-67% for the hepatitis C virus (HCV) [3,4].

Sialic acid, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and rheumatoid arthritis: a study on the erythrocyte membrane.
We measured serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and erythrocyte membrane sialic acid in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and studied their correlation with the disease activity. Serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 level was determined with sandwich ELISA and sialic acid level with the method of Shamberger in 42 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and in 30 hea...

Recently, it has been proven that cartilage healing is difficult. The most commonly used treatments are autogenously cartilage grafting and allogeneic bone grafting, but grafts cannot fully meet treatment goals because of source, price, safety, and other concerns. Thus, a combination of biological materials and tissue engineering technology has become a recent trend in studies. Among the studie...

Maternal Serum Levels of VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and E-selectin in Preeclampsia
Endothelial dysfunction is thought to be a central pathogenic feature in preeclampsia on the basis of elevated adhesion molecules. The aim of the present study was to compare the levels of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and E-selectin (sE-selectin) in sera of normal and preeclamptic pregnancies. We studied the serum levels of sVC...
