Molecular Gene Expression of Toll-Like Receptors 4 & 10 in Cellular Subsets of Human Peripheral Blood among Patients with Prostatitis: Conventional, Real Time Pcr and DNA Sequencing Techniques

Abstract

The Aim of this study was to determine Immunogenetic expression of Toll-like receptor gene clusters related to prostatitis, to give acknowledge about Role of TLR in prostatitis immunity in men from Basrah and Maysan provinces. A case–control study included 135 confirmed prostatitis patients And 50 persons as a control group. Data about age, marital status, working, infertility, family history and personal information like (Infection, Allergy, Steroid therapy, Residency, Smoking, Alcohol Drinking, Blood group, Body max index (BMI) and the clinical finding for all patients of Prostatitis were collected , The molecular expression study include extracting DNA from blood of Prostatitis patients , Prostitis patients and Control group by using specific primers for conventional PCR and Real Time PCR , the amplification of all extracted DNA from blood samples was preform and confirm by using electrophoresis with (100volt/30min). The amplification of all extracted DNA from blood samples was preform and confirm by using electrophoresis with (100volt/30min) , the result of this estimation revealed that the amplified DNA(PCR product) was 227bp for TLR4 on agarose gel (1%) , (50voltage for 1hour ) with a presence 100% , (PCR product) was 279bp for TLR10 on agarose gel(1%) , (50volt/1hour) with a presence 80%. The results of the present study indicate that the Toll like receptor alleles associated with risk of prostatitis.
