PVL is more frequent among CA-MRSA than MSSA. All the HA-MRSA and 25% of CA-MRSA strains were negative for PVL. The pvl gene was related to the severity of infection but not related to coa gene RFLP pattern.
homozygous GG than homozygous AA in atopic asthma, non atopic asthma, and allergic rhinitis patients. There was a significant increase in the serum level of total IgE & IL-13 towards homozygous GG than heterozygous AG in atopic asthma non atopic asthma, and allergic rhinitis patients for IgE and in all groups for IL-13. Conclusion interleukin-13 receptor α 1 subunit gene A1398G polymorphism does not contribute to asthma or allergic rhinitis susceptibility, although the interleukin-13 receptor α 1 subunit gene locus might be involved in the control of immunoglobulin E production, IL13 can used as an immunological marker in atopic upper respiratory diseases and to differentiate between atopic and non atopic bronchial asthma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
