The APOBEC3G gene rs2294367(C>G) variant is associated with HIV-1 infection in Moroccan subjects.

The APOBEC3G gene is one of the most important host factors thathas beenfound previously associated withHIV infection and AIDS progression. The host's susceptibility to viral infectionmay be influenced by any APOBEC3G genetic variation.The main aim of thecurrent study was to investigate the association of three SNPs in the APOBEC3G gene (rs8177832, rs35228531, and rs2294367) respectively, with disease outcomes in Moroccan HIV-1 infected patients.

The International Thymic Malignancy Interest Group created the first map for thymic epithelial malignancies in conjunction with the eighth edition of the TNM classification, representing the first official TNM classification of thymic epithelial malignancies. The map was based on clinical experience and published studies, but it was largely empirical because of limited available data.

The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Thymic Epithelial Tumor Staging Project: Proposal for the T Component for the Forthcoming (Ninth) Edition of the TNM Classification of Malignant Tumors.
