Ankylosing spondylitis is the most common form of chronic inflammatory disease group known as spondyloarthritides. Recent discoveries CD4+ Th17 cells and IL-23/IL-17 axis have changed paradigms in many autoimmune diseases. In this study, we aimed to evaluate importance pathway IL-23 receptor polymorphism pathogenesis ankylosing spondylitis. Blood samples for study were obtained from 109 patients 40 healthy control subjects. Serum levels TNF-α, IL-6, IL-17, measured by ELISA method. The...

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) predict renal disfunction in patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Methods: This prospective consisted 102 FMF attack-free period, 40 matched healthy controls. Of the patients, nine were diagnosed as amyloidosis. divided into two groups according eGFR below 120 mL per minute above minute. Also, three degree urinary albumin excretion...
Etiopathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a major subtype group chronic inflammatory diseases known as spondyloarthropathies, is not clearly understood yet. In this study, we aimed to investigate the interleukin 23 (IL-23)/interleukin-17 (IL-17) pathway, which new cytokine pathway in diseases. We evaluated serum IL-17 and IL-23 levels after 1-year follow-up AS patients using only nonsteroidal anti drugs (at need or continue). Forty-four 40 healthy controls were included study....
