Thesis Abstract Several cytokines are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of non-Hodgkin Lymphomas (NHL). Given importance understanding genetic predisposition NHL, this work was designed study impact IL-10 (-1082 G/A; rs1800896 and -819 C/T; rs1800871), IL-6 (-174 G/C; rs1800795) CD38 (184C/G; rs6449182) gene polymorphisms on susceptibility Egyptians NHL. Both loci IL10 were genotyped usi...

Visceral leishmaniasis, associated with HIV/AIDS coinfection, is becoming a more aggressive disease, complicating an accurate prognosis. A 21-year-old HIV-positive female presenting with clinical features of visceral leishmaniasis was enrolled in this study. Bone marrow cytology, Novy-MacNeal-Nicolle culture and kDNA PCR of peripheral blood were all positive. Typing methods, multilocus enzyme e...

Molecular typing of twenty-five Pasteurella multocida isolates has been assessed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of a species-specific PCR assay. All of the P.multocida isolates were recovered from fowl cholera outbreaks in Northern provinces of Iran. Amplification was based on the gene ompH, encoding a major outer membrane protein (protein H). PCR with ompH primers amplified...
