High prevalence of protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor N22 gene functional variant R620W in systemic lupus erythematosus patients from Kuwait: implications for disease susceptibility.

  • Adel M Al-Awadhi‎ et al.
  • BMC rheumatology‎
  • 2018‎

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease which involves the loss of self-tolerance with hyperactivation of autoreactive T- and B-cells. Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) encodes for lymphoid specific phosphatase (LYP) which is a key negative regulator of T lymphocyte activation. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between PTPN22 gene functional variant R620W and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by comparing its prevalence in Kuwaiti SLE patients and controls.


Impact of Smoking on COVID-19 Symptoms in Non-Vaccinated Patients: A Matched Observational Study from Qatar.

  • Mohammad Z Haider‎ et al.
  • Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare‎
  • 2022‎

Predisposition to acute illness from COVID-19 is suggested to correlate with cigarette smoking as it augments the risk of developing cardiovascular and respiratory illnesses, including infections. However, the effects of smoking on COVID-19 symptoms are not well described and controversial. In this study, we aim to explore the associations between smoking and COVID-19 symptoms.


Relationship of four vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms with type 1 diabetes mellitus susceptibility in Kuwaiti children.

  • Majedah A Rasoul‎ et al.
  • BMC pediatrics‎
  • 2019‎

The incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in Kuwait is amongst the highest in the world. Vitamin D is considered to be involved in immune modulation and its deficiency contribute to autoimmune destruction of insulin producing beta cells in T1DM patients. Vitamin D has been shown to exert its effects via a nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR) and therefore, VDR gene may be considered a candidate for T1DM susceptibility.


Association between interleukin-6-174G/C gene polymorphism and asthma severity: exploring the role of total serum IgE, blood eosinophils, and FeNO as markers of type 2 inflammation.

  • Mona Al-Ahmad‎ et al.
  • Allergy, asthma, and clinical immunology : official journal of the Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology‎
  • 2024‎

While a connection has been established between serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels and the IL-6 gene (- 174G/C) polymorphism in allergic diseases such as asthma, its specific association with severe asthma remains unexplored. This study examined the relationship between the IL-6 (- 174G/C) gene polymorphism and mild and severe asthma, focusing on its influence on type 2 inflammation.
