Summary

I graduated in biology from college of Sciences/ University of Baghdad in 1988 and then I worked in private laboratories for two years. In 1992 I was accepted as a scholarship to study for a master's degree in physiology/endocrinology and reproduction at the College of Science, University of Baghdad. In 1999, I got a job as an assistant lecturer of physiology at Al-Kindy College of Medicine. In 2006, I started my PhD in microbiology at at Mustansiriya college of medicine, and I completed my studies in 2010, where I submitted my thesis entitled: Study of Some Pathogens in Vaginal Discharge of Pregnant Women and Their Relation to Serum Levels of Some Cytokines. Then I moved to work at International center for early detection of breast and cervix cancer/ College of Medicine-Baghdad university. in 2012 I joined college of pharmacy as a lecturer of microbiology/ immunology then in 2016, I succeed to have promotion to assistant professor in immunology also I was assigned to work as a rapporteur for the Clinical Laboratory Sciences Department. Know I give lectures in microbiology, immunology and viruses for undergraduate and postgraduate students, in addition to my responsibilities in supervision of MSc degree and PhD students.

Genetic Polymorphism in TNF-α Promoter Region: Its Association with Severity and Susceptibility to Rheumatoid Arthritis in Iraqi Patients with Active Disease

Objectives: To study the prevalence of rs1799964 (-1031 T/C) and rs361525 (- 238 G/A) SNPs and their effect on the disease activity, severity, and cytokines production in newly diagnosed Iraqi rheumatoid arthritis patients. Patients and Methods: sixty-three patients were diagnosed by a specialist physician while attending the rheumatology unit and twenty control participated. The inflammatory markers were measured and PCR amplification and sequencing were performed to demonstrate TNF-α SNPs. Results: Regarding (-1031 C/T) SNP, the TT genotype and allele C were significantly present in the controls, and the CT genotype was distributed significantly in the patients. The TT genotype was mostly distributed in the mild-moder
