Leprosy and the Human Genome
TL;DR: Identifying and functionally exploring the genetic and immunological factors that underlie human susceptibility to leprosy have yielded important insights into M. leprae pathogenesis and are likely to advance the understanding of the immune response to other pathogenic mycobacteria.

- 07 Jun 1995
TL;DR: A continuous segment of chromosomal DNA from E. coli O157:H7, isolated on plasmid pSC(overlap) (ATCC No. 69648), which encodes an adhesin (SEQ ID NO:4) that mediates bacterial colonization of bovine intestines.

Differential dermal expression of CCL17 and CCL18 in tuberculoid and lepromatous leprosy.
William R. Berrington,Chhatra B. Kunwar,Kapil D. Neupane,Susan J. F. van den Eeden,James C. Vary,Glenna J. Peterson,Richard D. Wells,Annemieke Geluk,Deanna A. Hagge,Thomas R. Hawn +9 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that CCL17 and CCL18 dermal expression is associated with leprosy polarity.
