MicroRNA Expression Analysis of Centenarians and Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Reveals a Common Expression Pattern
Micro-RNA (miRNA) are a family of small non-coding ribonucleic acids that inhibits post-transcriptionally the expression of their target messenger RNA (mRNA). We are interested in studying the involvement of miRNA in longevity and autoimmune diseases. In this study we compared the different expression of seven microRNAs between human plasma healthy controls, plasma samples of centenarians and s...
متن کاملA Flowcytometry Study of CD55 and CD59 Expression on Erythrocytes in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Background: Inappropriate activation or blockage of the inhibition of complement system could cause tissue damages in autoimmune diseases particularly rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Defect in complement component regulation may cause damages to tissues, on the other hand, or the damaged tissue might affect the unnecessary activation of complement components. Objective: To investigate the expressi...
متن کاملPlasma microRNA expression profiles in Chinese patients with rheumatoid arthritis
The outstanding characteristics of circulatory microRNAs (miRNAs) attract much attention in research on disease biomarkers and disease pathogenesis. This study aimed to identify the expression profiles of plasma miRNAs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Thirty-three miRNAs were screened using an miRNA array, of which 9 miRNAs were validated as differentially expressed in the plasma of ...
متن کاملDifferential Expression of Rheumatoid Factor-Associated Cross-Reactive Idiotypes in Iranian Seropositive and Seronegative Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
High levels of rheumatoid factors (RF) are detectable in serum of the majority of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but 5-10% of patients remain seronegative (SN). Despite clinical and genetic similarities between these two subsets of RA, it has been proposed that they may be regarded as distinct clinical entities. Methods: In the present study a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) rec...
متن کاملInvestigation of the plasma levels of CCL-17 and CCL-25 and their receptor gene expression in rheumatoid arthritis patients
Background and Aim: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. The chemokines and their related receptors have a pivotal role in migration and homing of leukocyte involved in the pathogenesis of RA. The goal of this study was to measure the plasma levels of CCL-17 and CCL-25 and their receptors gene (CCR4 and CCR9) expression in rheumatoid arthritis pa...
