hla-g is normally expressed on human trophoblast cells. it is a non-classical mhc molecule class i b. the role of hla-g in diabetic type 1 is not known. we investigated the role of ifn-β in induction hla-g expression on the monocyte derived dendritic cells (dc) in diabetes type 1. treatment of dendritic cell with ifn-β in vitro from diabetic patients (n=20) and normal subjects (n=20) resulted t...

during antigen capture and processing, mature dendritic cells (dc) express large amounts of peptide-mhc complexes and accessory molecules on their surface. we investigated the role of ifn-β in induction hla-g expression on the monocyte derived dc and cytokine profile in diabetes type 1. we accomplished secretary pattern and total cytokine production of the th1 cytokine (il-2, γifn) and th2 cyto...

Human Interferon β (INF-β) is a member of cytokines family which different studies have shown its immunomodulatory and antiviral activities. In this study an expression vector was designed and constructed for expression of human INF-β-1b either in shake flasks and bench top bioreactor. The designed vector was constructed based upon pET-25b(+) with T7 promoter. Recombinant human beta interferon ...

Introduction: Interferon beta is one of the members of type I interferons. Creating R27T and V101F mutations is one of the important researches performed to improve function, decrease immunogenicity, increase expression and increase half-life of interferon beta. In this study, the effects of R27T and V101F mutations on interferon beta binding to interferon receptors were studied by molecular do...

Background: Statins, widely used cholesterol-lowering agents, have also been demonstrated to have anti-inflammatory and immunomdulatory effects. Objective: To evaluate the effects of atorvastatin in combination with Interferon-β in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) in a randomized controlled clinical trial. Methods: Multiple sclerosis patients were randomized independently, in a double b...
