RESUMEN
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Chronic inflammation is the hallmark of the pathogenesis of H. pylori-induced gastric cancer. IL-17A and IL-17F are inflammatory cytokines expressed by a novel subset of CD4+Th cells and play critical function in inflammation. We evaluated the relationship between IL-17A G197A, IL-17F A7488G and IL23R+2199 A/C polymorphisms with IL-6, IL-17, IL-21, IL-23 and TGF-ß1 mRNAs expression in regard to H. pylori infection with chronic gastritis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Total RNA and genomic DNA were extracted from gastric biopsies of 58 H. pylori-infected patient with gastritis. Afterward, mucosal IL-6, IL-17, IL-21, IL-23 and TGF-ß1 mRNAs expression and polymorphisms in IL-17A G197A, IL-17F A7488G and IL-23R +2199A/Cin gastric biopsies were determined by real-time PCR and PCR-RFLP. RESULTS: Our results show that IL-17A G197A, IL-17F A7488G andIL23R +2199A/C polymorphisms have no effect on mucosal expression of IL-6, IL-17, IL-21 and TGF-ß1 mRNAs expression in H. pylori-infected patients with chronic gastritis. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that IL-17A G197A, IL-17F A7488G and IL23R +2199A/C polymorphisms no alter mucosal cytokine pattern in Iranian patients with H. pylori-associated gastritis diseases.

A novel Au-nanoparticles/poly-(2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-propane-1,3-diol) film modified glassy carbon electrode (AuNPs/poly(trisamine)/GCE) was constructed for the simultaneous determination of norepinephrine (NE), acetaminophen (AC) and L-tyrosine (Tyr) by differential pulse voltammetry. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy indicate that the trisamine film was successfully polymerized on the surface of GCE and the film efficiently decreased the charge transfer resistance value of electrode and improved the electron transfer kinetic between analytes and electrode. The separation of the oxidation peak potentials for NE-AC and AC-Tyr were about 160 mV and 240 mV, respectively. The calibration curves for NE, AC and Tyr were obtained in the range of 1.3-230.1 µmol L(-1), 1.90-188.0 µmol L(-1), and 3.9-61.8 µmol L(-1), respectively. The detection limits (S/N=3) were 0.07 µmol L(-1), 0.1 µmol L(-1) and 0.9 µmol L(-1), for NE, AC and Tyr, respectively. The diffusion coefficient and the catalytic rate constant for the oxidation reaction of NE at AuNPs/poly(trisamine)/GCE were calculated as 1.55 (±0.2)×10(-6) cm2 s(-1) and 2.28 (±0.17)×10(3) mol(-1) L s(-1), respectively. Finally, AuNPs/poly(trisamine)/GCE was satisfactorily used for the determination of NE, AC, and Tyr in pharmaceutical and biological samples.
