Arthritis Res Ther 12:R213. 2010..The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of GSTM1-null with ACPA positivity in RA and to assess for evidence of interaction between GSTM1 and HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE)...
Association between CD14 polymorphisms and serum soluble CD14 levels: effect of atopy and endotoxin inhalationTricia D LeVan
Arizona Respiratory Center, University of Arizona College of Medicine, Tucson, Arizona, USA
J Allergy Clin Immunol 121:434-440.e1. 2008..A prerequisite for activation of the innate immune response by endotoxin is its binding to CD14...
Polymorphisms in the CD14 gene associated with pulmonary function in farmersTricia D LeVan
Arizona Respiratory Center and Departments of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, College of Medicine, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, USA
Am J Respir Crit Care Med 171:773-9. 2005..Farmers experience airway obstruction, which may be attributable in part to endotoxin inhalation. CD14 is a receptor for endotoxin...
Pesticide use and thyroid disease among women in the Agricultural Health StudyWhitney S Goldner

Am J Epidemiol 171:455-64. 2010..3 (95% CI: 1.2, 4.4) and hypothyroidism. These data support a role of organochlorines, in addition to fungicides, in the etiology of thyroid disease among female spouses enrolled in the Agricultural Health Study...
The differential effect of genetic variation on soluble CD14 levels in human plasma and milkStefano Guerra

Systemic responsiveness to lipopolysaccharide and polymorphisms in the toll-like receptor 4 gene in human beingsOlivier Michel
Clinic of Allergology and Respiratory Diseases, CHU Saint Pierre ULB, Brussels, Belgium
J Allergy Clin Immunol 112:923-9. 2003..The response to lipopolysaccharide exposure is highly variable and might be a result of genetic diversity between individuals. The toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) is the principal receptor for lipopolysacharide...
