[ 1 ] - Torque Teno Virus (TTV) Among β-Thalassemia and Haemodialysis Patients from Mazandaran Province (North of Iran)
Torque Teno virus (TTV) is a transfusion transmitted virus that seems to be involved in several complications such as acute respiratory diseases, liver diseases, AIDS, cancer, and autoimmune reactions. In the present study the frequency of TTV was investigated among β- thalassemia (BT) and haemodialysis (HD) patients (high risk patients for TTV) in Mazandaran province, Iran. DNA was ...
[ 2 ] - Evaluation of Gene Mutations Involved in Drug Resistance in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Strains Derived from Tuberculosis Patients in Mazandaran, Iran, 2013
Drug resistance (especially multiple drug resistance) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis makes global concerns in treatment and control of tuberculosis. Rapid diagnosis of drug resistant strains of the bacteria has vital importance in the prognosis of the disease. The aim of this study was to identify the mutations responsible for drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains derived from pa...
[ 3 ] - Identification of a Neonate with Thalassemia Intermedia Despite Premarital Screening Program in Mazandaran Province (Co-inheritance of Hb Knossos and IVS II-1 G> A Mutations)
Background: Beta thalassemia is a common health problem in Iran especially in Northern provinces. Premarital screening for thalassemia is compulsory in Iran and identification of the carriers is based on primary CBC (Cell Blood Count) and hemoglobin electrophoresis. Silent mutations on β-globin gene have borderline or normal hematological indices that cannot be detected in premarital scree...
[ 4 ] - Co-inheritance of --MED double gene deletion and αααAnti3.7 triplication on α-globin gene in Mazandaran at 2016
Alpha Thalassemia is one of the most prevalent disorders worldwide with a [T1] high carrier rate in Mazandaran province (north of Iran). Carriers of --MED double gene deletion are at risk of having a child with hemoglobin haemoglobin[T2] H (HbH) disease, if they marry a silent carrier. Co-inheritance of αααAnti3.7 triplication that cannot be detected using hem...
[ 5 ] - Is Quantitative HBsAg Measurement a Reliable Substitute for HBV DNA Quantitation?
Background: Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is one of the main proteins of HBV envelop and its serum quantitative measurement is the most common quantitative test for monitoring the progress of Chronic Hepatitis B. Although measurement of serum HBV DNA copy number is a gold standard method for displaying viral load, the test is relatively expensive and it is not readily available everywhere...
[ 6 ] - Hemoglobin Daneshgah-Tehran (HBA1:c.218A>G p.His72Arg): a Rare α1-Globin Variant from Iran
There are more than 400 different variations on α-globin protein, and most of them are not associated with noticeable clinical manifestation. Hemoglobin (Hb) is an oxygen-transporting protein and Hb Daneshgah- Tehran is an α-globin variant that for the first time was reported from Iran in a case with normal haematological indices. The capillary electrophoresis of an 8-year- old-girl with normal...
