Amira Zaki Badawy, Samia Hassan Kandel, Iman Aly Ahmedy, Mahmoud Ahmed Elhawy, Sally Mohamed El-Hefnawy, Dina Fouad Sief El-Nasr Zidan, Hanan Hassan El-sheity

Background: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by a low platelet counts and an increased risk of bleeding. Moreover, the apoptotic mechanisms of platelets may influence their production and lifespan.
Purpose: To assess the involvement of apoptotic markers—specifically the B-cell lymphoma protein 2 family proteins Bak and Bcl-Xl in the pathogenesis of acute primary ITP in pediatric patients, and...

Seham Mohamed Ragab, Wafaa Moustafa Abo ElFotoh, Mahmoud Ahmed El-Hawy, Eman Abdelfatah Badr, Saara Khairat Ali Mostafa, Mai El-Sayad Abd El-Hamid

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2024;67(9):465-473. Published online July 24, 2024

· Polymorphisms in interleukin (IL)-1B and IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) antagonists may significantly affect the pathogenesis of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).
· IL-1B and IL-1R antagonist gene polymorphisms are correlated with severity and susceptibility to primary ITP in children.
