It has been shown that activated T-cells produce and release both IL-2 and IL- 2 receptors (lL-2R). The rate of IL-2 release is proportional to its cell surface expression and state of cell activation. To clarify the molecular basis of this immunological aberration, we analysed the amount of soluble IL-2R(SIL2-R) by an ELISA technique in 68 patients with Behcet's disease (BD), 28 patient co...

Theoretical aspects of x-ray standing wave method for investigation of the real structure of crystals are considered in this review paper. Starting from the general approach of the secondary radiation yield from deformed crystals this theory is applied to different concreate cases. Various models of deformed crystals like: bicrystal model, multilayer model, crystals with extended deformation fi...

introduction: multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of central nervous system. the etiology of ms is slightly known, but genetic and environmental factors are reported. vitamin d regulates gene expression and affects target cell functions. the aim of this study was to investigate the expression variation of il-2 and il-4 genes under vitamin d supplementation in patients with mult...
