Evaluation of IFNAR2 and TYK2 transcripts' prognostic role in COVID-19 patients: a retrospective study.

Background And Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the possible prognostic significance of interferon alpha-beta receptor subunit 2 (IFNAR2) and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) expressions.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective study including COVID-19 adult patients. All blood samples were collected before any interventions.

Association between Interleukin-21 and Interleukin-21 receptor gene polymorphisms with susceptibility to chronic hepatitis B virus infection and HBV spontaneous clearance in Iranian population.

Unlabelled: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major public health concern due to the infection often leads to chronic infection, liver cirrhosis and also liver cancer. The host immune response to HBV infection and also genetic background play significant role in outcome of infection. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most important kind of variation in genetic sequences that caused by point mutations.

Changing the cause of liver cirrhosis from hepatitis B virus to fatty liver in Iranian patients.

Aim: The objective of this study was to determine the epidemiologic characteristics of patients with liver cirrhosis.

Background: Liver cirrhosis is an end-stage condition of chronic liver disease. Liver disease is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.

Lack of Association Between Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 -509C/T and +915G/C Polymorphisms and Chronic Hepatitis B in Iranian Patients.

Background: Chronic hepatitis B is one of the world's major health concerns [corrected]. The etiological agent of this infection is hepatitis B virus (HBV), which can evade the immune system response. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) can act against HBV by suppressing the viral replication.
