Volume 7, Issue 1 , March 2010, , Pages 8-17

Abstract
  Background: Interaction between killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules is important for regulation of natural killer (NK) cell function. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of compound KIR-HLA genotype on susceptibility ...  Read More

Does Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy Help Multiple Sclerosis Patients? Report of a Pilot Study

Mandana Mohyeddin Bonab; Sepideh Yazdanbakhsh; Jamshid Lotfi; Kamran Alimoghaddom; Fatemeh Talebian; Farnaz Hooshmand; Ardeshir Ghavamzadeh; Behrouz Nikbin

Volume 4, Issue 1 , March 2007, , Pages 50-57

Abstract
  Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with their potential to differentiate into mesodermal and non-mesodermal lineages have several immunomodulatory characteris-tics. These properties make them promising tools in cell and gene therapy. Objective: To evaluate the potential therapeutic applications ...  Read More

Typing of HLA Class I by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Sequence Specific Oligonucleotide Primer (PCR-SSOP) Technique in Iranian Cord Blood Donors

Andisheh Ghashghaie Mansour; Seyyed Hamidollah Ghaffari; Kamran Ali-moghadam; Ardeshir Ghavamzadeh

Volume 3, Issue 2 , June 2006, , Pages 95-98

Abstract
  Background: HLA compatibility between transplant donor and recipient is one of the major determinants of transplant outcome. Objective: To determine HLA class I by PCR- Sequence-Specific Oligonucleotide Probe (PCR-SSOP) in cord blood donors. Methods: Genomic DNA of 142 cord blood samples registered ...  Read More

Comparison of Functional Competence of Umbilical Cord and Adult Peripheral Blood Dendritic Cells in Allogenic Mixed Leukocyte Reaction

Nahid Naderi; Ali Akbar Pourfathoolah; Mahin Nikougoftar; Kamran Alimoghadam; Ardeshir Ghavamzadeh; Seyed Mohammad Moazzeni

Volume 2, Issue 1 , March 2005, , Pages 21-28

Abstract
  Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent stimulators of primary T cell responses and play a key role in immune reactions after stem cell transplantation. Very little is known about the cord blood (CB) dendritic cells and their potential involvement in the low incidence and lower severity ...  Read More

Cytokine Gene Polymorphisms in Iranian Patients with Beta-Thalassemia Major

Morteza Bagheri; Ali Akbar Amirzargar; Ardeshir Ghavamzadeh; Kamran Alimoghadam; Farideh Khosravi; Bita Ansaripour; Batoul Moradi; Behrouz Nikbin

Volume 2, Issue 1 , March 2005, , Pages 43-49

Abstract
  Background: β-thalassemia as a hereditary disease is defined as defective synthesis of   β-globin chains, resulting in erythropoiesis abnormalities and severe anemia. Different studies have shown that cytokines and cytokine gene polymorphisms play a major role in the pathogenesis of   ...  Read More

Th1 and Th2 Cytokine Gene Polymorphism in Iranian Patients with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

Ali Akbar Amirzargar; Morteza Bagheri; Ardeshir Ghavamzadeh; Kamran Alimoghadam; Farideh Khosravi; Mohammad Hossein Nicknam; Mandana Moheydin; Bita Ansaripour; Batul Moradi; Behrouz Nikbin

Volume 1, Issue 1 , June 2004, , Pages 26-33

Abstract
  Background:It has been hypothesized that genetic factors other than histocompatibility disparity may play a role in predisposition to developing Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). In this regard, Th1 and Th2 cytokines and their gene polymorphism seems to be important. Overall expression and secretion ...  Read More
