Evolutionary Divergence and Essentiality of the Single Tim17‐Centered Translocase of the Mitochondrial Inner Membrane in Trypanosoma brucei

ABSTRACT Translocase of the mitochondrial inner membrane (TIM) is essential for importing nuclear‐encoded proteins, a critical process for organelle biogenesis and function. While TIM is well‐characterized in a wide range of eukaryotes, it is remarkably divergent in the parasitic...

TNFAIP3 haplotypes modulate susceptibility to Behçet’s disease: evidence from an Iranian case-control study

Behçet’s disease (BD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by recurrent mucocutaneous, ocular, articular, and systemic inflammation. TNFAIP3 encodes A20, a negative regulator of NF-κB signaling, and its variants are implicated in immune-mediated diseases. This case-co...

The serum interleukin 17 (IL-17) level and the prognosis of brain aneurysm- a case control study

Abstract Background Rupture of an Intracranial aneurysm (IA) may cause disability and death. Inflammation is a known mechanism in the pathogenesis of IAs, and several proinflammatory agents such as interleukins, tumor necrosis factors, complement, and so on are defined in the pat...
