Sickle cell trait is not associated with endemic Burkitt lymphoma: An ethnicity and malaria endemicity‐matched case–control study suggests factors controlling EBV...
(2014-02)
Endemic Burkitt lymphoma (eBL) is associated with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and
Plasmodium falciparum coinfections. Malaria appears to dysregulate immunity that would
otherwise control EBV, thereby contributing to eBL ...
Interleukin-6 and interleukin-10 gene promoter polymorphisms and risk of endemic Burkitt lymphoma
(The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2014-09-03)
Overexpression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 in endemic Burkitt lymphoma (eBL)
may facilitate tumorigenesis by providing a permissive cytokine milieu. Promoter
polymorphisms influence interindividual differences ...
EBNA-1 specific effector T cell deletion associated with holoendemic malaria exposure in the etiology of endemic Burkitt’s lymphoma (P3063)
(American Association of Immunologists, 2013-05-01)
Etiological mechanism of eBL remain largely unknown despite long-standing
epidemiological link between malaria and EBV co-infection. Age-dependent deficiency in
EBV-specific CD8+ T cell-mediated IFN-γ immunosurveillance ...
Upregulation of Peripheral Blood Levels of Immune-Regulatory Interleukin-10 Cytokine in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-infected Compared to Non-infected Pregn...
(2012)
Alterations in the cytokine status have been suggested to be at least partly
responsible for the immune tolerance during pregnancy. Indeed, interleukin-10 (IL-10)
cytokine is known to control inflammationinduced ...
The Trends of Progesterone Hormone in Advancing Pregnancy of Human Immunodeficiency Virus-infected Women: A Cohort Study in Western Kenya
(2012)
Despite many studies on Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and pregnancy,
there is still insufficient information regarding the effect of HIV on progesterone in advancing
pregnancy. In a prospective cohort study, 44 ...
