TL;DR: The results indicate that a possible shared mechanisms underlying the development of these two clinical forms of the disease as hypothesized and confirm the role of gene variants involved in NOD2-mediated signalling pathways that play a role in immunological control of intracellular bacteria M. leprae.
Abstract: In recent years, genome wide association studies have discovered a large number of gene loci that play a functional role in innate and adaptive immune pathways associated with leprosy susceptibility. The immunological control of intracellular bacteria M. leprae is modulated by NOD2-mediated signaling of Th1 responses. In this study, we investigated 211 clinically classified leprosy patients and 230 ethnically matched controls in Indian population by genotyping four variants in NOD2 (rs9302752A/G), LRRK2 (rs1873613A/G), RIPK2 (rs40457A/G and rs42490G/A). The LRRK2 locus is associated with leprosy outcome. The LRRK2 rs1873613A minor allele and respective rs1873613AA genotypes were significantly associated with an increased risk whereas the LRRK2 rs1873613G major allele and rs1873613GG genotypes confer protection in paucibacillary and leprosy patients. The reconstructed GA haplotypes from RIPK2 rs40457A/G and rs42490G/A variants was observed to contribute towards increased risk whereas haplotypes AA was observed to confer protective role. Our results indicate that a possible shared mechanisms underlying the development of these two clinical forms of the disease as hypothesized. Our findings confirm and validates the role of gene variants involved in NOD2-mediated signalling pathways that play a role in immunological control of intracellular bacteria M. leprae.

TL;DR: In this article, the presence of broad ring and hallow ring patterns in electron diffraction suggests the low-crystalline nature of hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanocrystals with different levels of fluorine substitution (P/F = 0, 6, 4 and 2).

TL;DR: In this paper, the MHD mixed convection inside enclosure with center heater is numerically investigated and the effect of pertinent parameters such as length of heater, Richardson number, Hartmann number, and solid volume fraction of nanoparticles on the fluid flow and heat transfer performance of the enclosure is discussed.

TL;DR: Raw seeds of tribal pulses, Parkia roxburghii and Entada phaseoloides, were analysed for proximate and mineral composition, seedprotein fractions, seed protein amino acid profiles, fatty acid profiles of lipids and anti-nutritional factors.
Abstract: Raw seeds of tribal pulses, Parkia roxburghii and Entada phaseoloides, were analysed for proximate and mineral composition, seed protein fractions, seed protein amino acid profiles, fatty acid profiles of lipids and anti-nutritional factors. The seeds of P. roxburghii contain higher contents of crude protein and crude lipid compared to E. phaseoloides resulting in high energy value. Both the seeds were rich in potassium and iron. The seeds of E. phaseoloides were found to be a rich source of minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, zinc and manganese. Albumins and globulins constituted the predominant fractions of the seed proteins. In P. roxburghii and E. phaseoloides the contents of the essential amino acids, isoleucine, leucine, tyrosine and phenylalanine, were fairly high. Fatty acids such as oleic and linoleic acids were found to be relatively high in both the tribal pulses. Anti-nutritional factors such as total free phenols, tannins, L-DOPA (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalaline) and haemagglutinating activity...
