Differential expression of beta 2 integrins in Korean Behcet’s disease patients
… possible alteration in susceptibility to Behcet’s disease (BD) according to single nucleotide polymorphisms of CD11a, CD11c and CD18.Thus, our aim was to investigate the possible relationship between beta 2 integrins expression and BD. Materials and methods: BD patients (n=51) consisting …

The Role of CCR7 and Its Ligands in a Behcet’s Disease Mouse Model
… It was also reported that expression of CCL21 in Behcet’s Disease (BD) patients was low. In this study, we investigated the expression of CCR7 and its ligands in BD mice, and also observed the changes of memory T cells and BD symptoms in CCR7 ligands DNA injected mice. METHOD: Various symptoms of …

Anti-inflammatory Role of IL-15Rα Up-regulated by Poly I:C in Herpes Simplex Virus-induced Behcet's Disease-like Mouse Model
Behcet’s disease (BD) is a chronic, multi-systemic disorder that has arthritic, intestinal, mucocutaneous, ocular, vascular, and central nervous system affects. Interleukin-15 receptor alpha (IL-15Rα) forms stable complex with IL-15 on the cell surface of activated monocytes and mediates the …

MicroRNA as Regulator of the Th17 Inflammation in Behcet's disease
… of miRNAs in chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. To date, microRNA-155 (miR-155) is one of the most highly implicated miRNAs in autoimmunity. Behcet’s disease (BD) is a chronic inflammatory disease with autoimmune nature, characterized by oral and genital ulcers and ocular inflammation. …

Effects of Vitamin D on Expression of Toll-like Receptors of Monocytes from Patients with Behcet's Disease
PURPOSE: Behcet’s disease (BD) is a chronic, relapsing, systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology. Although the exact mechanisms of the increased inflammatory response is not yet clear, infectious agents and immunological cross-reaction with the heat-shock proteins (HSP) are considered to play roles …
