The Effect of Aspartate-Lysine-Isoleucine and Aspartate-Arginine-Tyrosine Mutations on the Expression and Activity of Vasopressin V2 Receptor Gene

Background: Vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R) plays an important role in the water reabsorption in the kidney collecting ducts. V2R is a G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and the triplet of amino acids aspartate-arginine-histidine (DRH) in this receptor might significantly influence its activity similar to other GPCR. However, the role of this motif has not been fully confirmed. Therefore, the ...

Advancing Chimeric Antigen Receptor-Engineered T-Cell Immunotherapy Using Genome Editing Technologies: Challenges and Future Prospects

Chimeric antigen receptor engineered-T (CAR-T) cells also named as living drugs, have been recently known as a breakthrough technology and were applied as an adoptive immunotherapy against different types of cancer. They also attracted widespread interest because of the success of B-cell malignancy therapy achieved by anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. Current genetic toolbox enabled the synthesis of CARs ...

بررسی ارتباط پلی‌مورفیسم‌های شایع ژن پذیرنده ویتامین (VDR) D با استعداد ابتلاء به سل ریوی

  Background and Aim: In addition to exposure to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), development of tuberculosis is influenced by environmental and host genetic factors, and clinical disease only occurs in less than 10% of the infected individuals. Vitamin D metabolism leads to activation of macrophages and restricts the intracellular growth of mycobacterium. This effect may be influenced by poly...

Biochemical characterization of PE_PGRS61 family protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv reveals the binding ability to fibronectin

Objective(s): The periodic binding of protein expressed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv with the host cell receptor molecules i.e. fibronectin (Fn) is gaining significance because of its adhesive properties.  The genome sequencing of M. tuberculosis H37Rv revealed that the proline-glutamic (PE) proteins contain polymorphic GC-rich repetitive sequences (PGRS) which have clinical importance i...

ارتباط پلی‌مورفیسم‌های ژنتیکی پذیرنده شبه Toll 4 (TLR4) و استعداد ابتلا به سل ریوی

  Background & Aim: Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) are the members of the Toll-like receptor family and play important roles in recognition and subsequent immune response against mycobacteria. Two functional polymorphisms for TLR2 (Arg677Trp, C à T Arg753Gln, G à A) and TLR4 (Asp299Gly, A à G Thr399Ile, C à T) genes have been associated with a negative influence on ...
