چکیده

chemokines participate in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses by interacting with their specific receptors on related immune and inflammatory cells such as b-lymphocytes, t-lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells. chemokines and their receptors are therefore considered to mediate inflammation and tissue damage in autoimmune disorders. the recent studies have revealed the genotypes of chemokine receptors (ccr) and their related polymorphisms in a number of autoimmune and infectious diseases. we used the polymorphic dna markers (ccr2-64i) and (ccr5?32) to study the association of ccr2 and ccr5 gene mutations with late-onset alzheimer’s disease (load) and the relation between clinical features and genotypes in affected individuals. a total of 160 patient samples and 163 healthy controls from west northern iran (eastern azerbaijan) were genotyped for the two polymorphisms by the pcr-rflp method and genotype frequencies were statistically determined. no significant linkage was determined between ccr5?32 and the disease of interest. however the gene ccr2 was appeared to be significantly linked to the disease, as it could be concluded from statistical analysis.

Ccr2-64i and Ccr5 Δ32 Polymorphisms in Patients with Late-Onset Alzheimer’s disease; A Study from Iran (Ccr2-64i And Ccr5 Δ32 Polymorphisms in Alzheimer’s disease)

Objective(s) Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex disease with multifactorial etiology. Inflammation has been proven to have an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. Both CCR2 and CCR5 genes expression increase in AD patients comparing to control subjects. CCR5 gene encodes a protein which is a member of the beta chemokine receptors family of integral membrane proteins. CCR5-Δ32 is a gene...

Association of ADAM33 gene polymorphisms with allergic asthma

Objective(s): Asthma results from the interaction between genetic and environmental factors. ADAM33 gene on chromosome 20p13 is associated with asthma and airway hyperresponsiveness. Materials and Methods: This is a case-control study, where four SNPs S1 (rs3918396), T1 (rs2280091), T2 (rs2280090), V4 (rs2787094) of ADAM33 gene have been assessed in patients with allergic asthma and normal con...

Polymorphisms within Exon 9, But Not Intron 8, of the Vitamin D Receptor Gene Are Associated with Asthma

Objective(s) Deregulation of the immune system through allied factors and cytokine responses are thought to be important contributors to the pathogenesis of asthma. Vitamin D3 and its nuclear receptor appear to be factors that maybe involved in regulating immune responses during the progression of asthma. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between polymorphisms in intron ...
