Parham Nejati; Marzieh Attar; Maryam Rahimian; Davood Fathi; Majid Shahbazi

Volume 14, Issue 3 , September 2017, , Pages 231-239

Abstract
  Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS), as a multifactorial autoimmune disease with complex genetic basis, causes demyelination in the central nervous system via cytokine responses to myelin antigens. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the main protein component of the myelin sheath. HLA-DRB (human leukocyte ...  Read More

Abbasali Pourazar; Mansoor Salehi; Aabollah Jafarzadeh; Mohammad Kazemi Arababadi; Farzad Oreizi; Keivan Shariatinezhad

Volume 2, Issue 3 , September 2005, , Pages 172-176

Abstract
  Background: The risk of infection by transfusion-transmitted viruses has been reduced remarkably. However, a zero-risk blood supply is still desirable. The screening for antibody to HBc (anti-HBc) has been shown as an alternative test for the detection of HBV infection. Objective: The main aim of this ...  Read More
