TELOMERASE ENZYME IN AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES
Reem Jan Farid;
Abstract
The present work aimed to measure the levels of telomerase activity in peripheral mononuclear cells taken from patients with SLE and RA.
Method:
Forty patients and ten normal subjects were included in this study. The patients were divided into two groups. Group one included SLE patients 20 females and 2 males. Group two included RA patients 15 females and 3 males. The control group included 5 females and 5 males.
Patients and controls were subjected to full history taking, complete clinical examination, laboratory investigations including the assay of telomerase enzyme activity both by telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) by PCR-ELISA and real time PCR by light cycler.
