[ 1 ] - Correlation between rs2108622 locus of CYP4F2 gene single nucleotide polymorphism and warfarin dosage in Iranian cardiovascular patients
Background: Many cardiovascular diseases may require lifelong anticoagulation therapy. Warfarin is the most prescribed medication in this regard, however, it has serious side effects. Recently the new issue regarding to warfarin dosing is considered in which some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affecting cytochrome P450 system can impact on warfarin metabolism and dosing. Methods: 230 c...

[ 3 ] - Lower Frequency of HLA-DRB1*01 in Southwestern Iranian Patients with Atherosclerosis
Background: Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex is a gene family involved in antigen presentation associated with protection or susceptibility to inflammatory, infectious and autoimmune diseases. Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which HLA molecules play a role in the initiation and development of the disease through presentation of self or foreign antigens to T cells. Obje...
[ 4 ] - Frequency of Efficient Circulating Follicular Helper T Cells Correlates with Dyslipidemia and WBC Count in Atherosclerosis
Background: The significance of cTfh cells and their subsets in atherosclerosis is not well understood. We measured the frequency of cTfh subsets in patients with different degrees of stenosis using flow-cytometry. Methods: Participants included high (≥50%; n = 12) and low (<50%; n = 12) stenosis groups, as well as healthy controls (n = 6). Results: The frequency of CCR7loPD-1hiefficient-cTfh w...
