About 70 loci are associated with susceptibility to Crohn's disease (CD), particularly in pathways of innate immunity, autophagy, and pathogen recognition. Phenotype-genotype associations inconsistent.CD polymorphisms ATG16L1 rs2241880, ICAM1 rs5498, IL4 rs2070874, IL17F rs763780, IRGM rs13361189, ITLN1 rs2274910, LRRK2 rs11175593, TLR4 rs4986790 were genotyped a Portuguese population (511 CD patients, 626 controls) assessed for association clinical characteristics.There is significant the...
Summary Type I diabetes is a disease caused by autoimmune destruction of the beta cells in pancreas that leads to deficiency insulin production. The aim this study was evaluate prophylactic potential prime-boost strategy involving bacille Calmette–Guérin (BCG) and pVAXhsp65 vaccine (BCG/DNAhsp65) induced streptozotocin (STZ) C57BL/6 mice also spontaneous type 1 non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice. BCG/DNAhsp65 vaccination NOD determined weight gain, protection against hyperglycaemia, decreased...
We aimed to identify the clinical and genetic [IL23 receptor (IL23R) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] predictors of response therapy in patients with ulcerative colitis.A total 174 colitis, 99 women 75 men, were included. The mean age was 47±15 years disease duration 11±9 years. number classified as responders (R) or nonresponders (NR) several therapies follows: 110 R 53 NR mesalazine (5-ASA), 28 20 azathioprine (AZT), 18 7 infliximab. Clinical demographic variables recorded. A four...
Aim To identify clinical and/or genetic predictors of response to several therapies in Crohn's disease (CD) patients. Methods We included 242 patients with CD (133 females) aged (mean ± standard deviation) 39 12 years and a duration 8 years. The single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) studied were ABCB1 C3435T G2677T/A, IL23R G1142A, C2370A, G9T, CASP9 C93T, Fas G670A LgC844T, ATG16L1 A898G. Genotyping was performed real‐time PCR Taqman probes. Results Older responded better 5‐aminosalicylic...
Background: The nutritional value of feed is often poor quality and seasonal supply erratic resulting in low levels the carrying capacity pastures. Local pasture needs to be managed recorded for their existence because they are a valuable source cheap easy obtain: botanical, chemical composition capacity, grasses legumes being investigated. Methods: A survey measurements direct observation field. Measuring forage production using “Actual Weight Estimate” method obtain total production,...
