Twenty six potential SNPs were evaluated in order to capture all essential variants of the IL9R gene, and data analyses were performed using the four most informative SNPs in boys and girls separately ...

An important area of genetic research is the identification of functional mechanisms in polymorphisms associated with diseases. A highly relevant functional mechanism is the influence of polymorphisms ...

Perivascular fibrosis, characterized by increased amount of connective tissue around vessels, is a hallmark for vascular disease. Ang II (angiotensin II) contributes to vascular disease and end-organ ...

We compared the 14 key genes in the GEPIA database.Results indicated that the expression levels of 11 of the 14 key genes, including CCR2, FASLG, FCRL3, IFNG, IL9R, LAX1, LY9, PLA2G2D, THEMIS, TIFAB, ...

Juha Kere (born 1958) is professor of molecular genetics at KI since 2001. He graduated with MD (1984), PhD in molecular genetics (1989) and specialist physician degree in clinical genetics (1994) ...

Decreased placental IL9 and IL9R in preeclampsia was observed to impair trophoblast cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis. This study was done with the purpose to investigate IL9 and IL9R ...

In the colitis model, constitutive IL-9 expression exacerbated inflammation upon transfer of CD4 CD45RB T cells from wild-type but not from Il9r mice, indicating that IL-9 acts directly on T cells.

Lymphotoxin β receptor (LTbR) regulates immune cell trafficking and communication in inflammatory diseases. However, the role of LTbR in atherosclerosis is still unclear. These findings suggest that ...
