Objective: The aim: Evaluating the role SNP rs351855 of (FGFR4) gene and estimating the serum concentration of Visfatin cytokine and (HMGB-1) protein in AC patients and in healthy control blood samples.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Blood samples were collected from 35 patients and 35 healthy controls, and then the serum was used for ELISA test, another each 2 ml blood were used for DNA extraction and rs351855 of (FGFR4) PCR assay.
Results: Results: there was no significant difference in mean HMG and mean visfatin among (FGFR4) rs351855 genotypes in patients and control group.
Objective: The aim: Evaluating serum concentration of IL-17 and IL-23 in autoimmune thyroiditis patient and control group along with the role of CTLA-4 rs3087243 gene polymorphism.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: A case control study was conducted in 30 HT (Hashimoto's thyroiditis), 30 GD (Graves' disease) who attended the consultant clinic for thyroiditis in AL-Diwaniyah teaching hospital and in 30 people as control group. Blood samples were processed for measurement of serum IL-17 and IL-23 using ELISA test.
