Ankylosing Spondylitis
Sponsor: Sohag University
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to measure the serum level of cytokines IL-17, IL-38,IL-41, and gene expression of HLA-B27 gene in ankylosing spondylitis patients and healthy control group. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the disease activity, severity, serum level of cytokines (IL-17, IL-38, and IL-41) are affected by the HLA-b27 gene positivity? Researchers will compare the serum level of cytokines IL-17, IL-38,IL-41, and gene expression of HLA-B27 gene in ankylosing spondylitis patients and healthy control group to see if there significant differences in serum levels of interleukins 17, 38, 41 in AS patients and healthy control group. .
Official title: Evaluation of the Relation Between Serum Interleukins 17, 38, 41, and HLA-B27 Gene Expression in Ankylosing Spondylitis Patients
