Macro- and microelements of blood mononuclear leukocytes in patients withpulmonary tuberculosis

Microelements - Macro Consequences..

Microelements are essential for full-fledged functioning of an adult and sound growth and development of a child. Iron, iodine, folic acid, calcium etc. along with vitamins A, B1, B2, B12 and C are the most essential nutrients for our organism.

Level of Interferon Gamma in the Blood of Tuberculosis Patients

Background: Interferon gamma (IFN-γ), a cytokine produced by a variety of cells is involved in the immune response against M. tuberculosis. It activates the production of other cytokines and molecules that kill mycobacterium. IFN-γ also has diagnostic role in identification of active and latent tuberculosis. Objective: To determine the level of IFN-γ in the blood of TB patients. Methods: Ninety...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis Leukocytes of Patients with Active Up-Regulation of TLRs in the Mononuclear Induces Selective Myobacterium tuberculosis

Toll Like Receptor 2 and 4 Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Multiple Sclerosis Patients

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a T cell mediated autoimmune disease with unknown etiology. Appropriate MS therapeutic strategies need thorough understanding of both disease etiology and pathogenesis mechanisms. Ligation of TLR-2 and TLR-4 stimulates the production of several cytokines leading to CNS autoimmunity and neurodegenerative diseases. Objective: To find a relationship between M...
