ASAP1 gene polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to tuberculosis in a Chinese Xinjiang Muslim population
Seven single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites located in ASAP1 gene have been found associated with tuberculosis (TB) susceptibility by genome-wide association studies in Russia. The case-control study was carried out to test whether these seven SNPs were associated with susceptibility to TB in a Chinese Xinjiang Muslim population. The seven SNPs were genotyped in a case-control design that ...
متن کاملDesign of peptides interfering with iron-dependent regulator (IdeR) and evaluation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth inhibition
Objective(s): Tuberculosis (TB), a disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), stayed a global health thread with high mortality rate. Since TB has a long-term treatment, it leads high risk of drug resistant development, and there is an urgent to find new drugs. The aim of this study was designing new inhibitors for a new drug target, iron dependent regulator, IdeR. Materials and Method...

Background: The innate and adaptive immune responses are dependent on the migration of leukocytes across endothelial cells. Dendritic cells (DCs) play an important role in the initiation of cellular immune responses during their migration from tissues into the lymph nodes where they interact with endothelial cells of lymphatic vessels. We investigated the effect...
متن کاملNo Significant Effect of ASAP1 Gene Variants on the Susceptibility to Tuberculosis in Chinese Population
Recent studies have proposed that the ASAP1 gene participates in regulating the adaptive immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. A GWAS study has reported that ASAP1 polymorphisms (rs4733781 and rs10956514) were associated with the risk of tuberculosis (TB) in Russians. But due to population heterogeneity, different races would have different causative polymorphisms, and the ai...
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...
