Analysis of expression of FLI1 and MMP1 in American cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania braziliensis infectionMMP1 is regulated by factors other than FLI1, and that the influence of IL-6 on MMP1 was independent of its effect on FLI1 in Leishmania braziliensis

Zika: Is there an underlying genetic/epigenetic basis to microcephaly and eye damage due to congenital Zika virus infection?Our hypothesis is that congenital Zika virus infection dysregulates these genes early in the developing fetus.

Association of a NOD2 gene polymorphism and T-helper 17 cells with presumed ocular toxoplasmosisWe assessed 30 sibships and 89 parent/case trios of presumed ocular toxoplasmosis (POT) to evaluate associations with polymorphisms in the NOD2 gene.
