The comparative analysis of microbial communities of pure and oil – polluted soils of Ukraine conducted by us has shown the considerable predominance in the latter the representatives of Rhodococcus and Gordonia genera. Among them the most part of strains belonged to the species of Rhodococcus erythropolis and Gordonia rubripertincta. Rhodococcus fascians, Rhodococcus ruber and Dietzia maris sp...

known etiology, affecting persons worldwide. Because the etiologies remain enigmatic, the ability to identify effective therapeutics remains elusive. Sarcoidosis immunology and pathology suggest that infectious agents may have a role in its pathogenesis. Molecular analysis of pathologic tissues remains a viable mechanism for identifying etiologic agents of microbial origin. In this issue of Sar...

introduction: with prevalence figures close to 0.2% at birth, hearing loss (hl) is the most frequent sensory impairment in childhood. in developed countries, genetic causes account for more than 60% of congenital hl, most often resulting in non-syndromic deafness, which is usually autosomal recessive. hereditary nonsyndromic hearing loss (nshl) in iran is highly heterogeneous, rendering molecul...

Present evidence infers that if degenerate consensus polymerase chain reaction sets were available to amplify all human papillomavirus (HPV) types found in skin, the virus would be found universally in all human epithelia skin. This explains existence of two or more HPV types found in verruca vulgaris, and presence of genital HPV carriage in virgins. HPV colonization probably offers some protec...

IL-17-producing CD4 T cells (Th17 cells) are understood to be a distinct lineage of CD4 T helper (Th) cells, which play an important role in the host defense, tissue inflammation and autoimmunity. The identification of Th17 cells collapsed the concept of the previously held Th1/Th2 paradigm in infection and autoimmunity. Recent studies have provided new information on the role of Th17 cells in ...
