Brucella is an intracellular bacterial pathogen that causes abortion and infertility in mammals
and leads to a debilitating febrile illness that can progress into a long lasting disease with …

Brucella can parasitize within human antigen-presenting cells modifying phagocytosis,
phagolysosome fusion, antigen presentation, cytokine secretion, and apoptosis. Subversion …

Brucellosis, caused by the intracellular pathogens Brucella, is one of the major zoonotic
infections. Considering the economic burden, its prevalence has been a health concern …

Chronic inflammation induced by Chlamydia trachomatis can lead to tubal factor infertility
(TFI). To investigate the genetic basis of chlamydial TFI and various manifestations of tubal …

Objective Owing to involvement of host genetic factors in susceptibility to brucellosis
infection and its outcome, this study aimed to carry out a comprehensive systematic review …

Genetic susceptibility to brucellosis is multifactorial, and it is known that impairment of the
immune system could contribute to risk for getting brucellosis. The aim of the study was to …

Brucella spp. are gram-negative, facultative and intracellular bacteria that can cause chronic
zoonotic infections in humans (Young, 2005). The organism can be transmitted from animals …

Cytokine gene variants are known to influence both infectious disease susceptibility and
harm-avoidant behaviors, suggesting that these risk variants may be pleiotropically linked to …

Background: The gene polymorphisms interferon‐gamma (IFN‐γ) 874 T/A and interleukin
(IL)‐12 1188 A/C have been associated with the altered production of cytokines. Therefore …

Objectives: Cervical cancer is rated the second most common malignant tumor globally and
