Serum complement factor H and Tyr402 His gene polymorphism among Egyptians with multiple sclerosis.

abstract：:We examined whether or not NF-kappaB, a factor that regulates expression of the genes that code for pro-inflammatory cytokines, is activated in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cells to investigate the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by CSF cells in patients with meningitis. Western blotting demonstrated that NF-kap...
