Abstract excerpt
The etiopathogenesis of Guillain Barré Syndrome (GBS) is inadequately understood. The role of immuno-inflammatory Th17 pathway was examined in GBS patients by genetic, gene expression and biochemical studies. Genotyping of G197A single nucleotide polymorphism within IL17 gene was carried out by PCR-RFLP method in 220 GBS patients. Quantification of gene expression of STAT3 and RORC and estimation of plasma level...
