IL-33 polymorphism rs1929992 and its association with susceptibility to different pattern of multiple sclerosis

Background: Multiple sclerosis is the most common autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a cytokine with both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory activities that implicated in the pathogenesis of some autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to determine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of IL-33, rs1929992, in patient’s gene ...

Association of Apolipoprotein E Alleles with Susceptibility to Age-Related Macular Degeneration in Iranian Patients

Background: We aimed here to investigate the association between alleles and genotypes of APOE and Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) development. Materials and Methods: After ophthalmological examination, 120 patients with confirmed AMD and 120 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. The polymorphic segment of APOE gene was PCR-amplified and sequenced to determine the frequency distr...

Association of apolipoprotein E genotypes with prognosis in multiple sclerosis.

BACKGROUND Although the association between apolipoprotein E (APOE) genetic polymorphisms and multiple sclerosis (MS), has been debated, the presence of the epsilon4 allele has been associated with an aggressive disease progression. OBJECTIVES Present study aimed to investigate whether or not the APOE allele has an impact on disease progression in patients with MS. The study investigated the ...

Association of FCγRIIA (CD32) polymorphism with susceptibility to brucellosis

Background: Brucellosis is the major bacterial zoonoses of global importance caused by Brucella spps. FCγRIIA receptor plays a central role in phagocytosis of IgG2-opsonized bacteria. FCγRIIA exhibits allelic polymorphisms with different capacities for binding IgG2 and phagocytosis. Cells expressing Fc γ RIIa-H131, bind more efficiently to complexes of IgG2 than those expressi...

Association of CD24V/V Genotype with Susceptibility and Progression of Multiple Sclerosis in Iranian Population

A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in CD24 has been associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) in a population based study. This SNP results in the replacement of alanine (CD24A) by valine (CD24V) at amino acid 57 in the resulting polypeptide chain. In the current study, the genotyping of this SNP and its contribution to MS in 217 patients and 200 healthy individuals of an Iranian population w...
