Moreover, these results in H-2b mice, predicted to provide poor immune response, suggests that epitopes modified by inflammatory processes may function unlike their tolerated unmodified self-analogues to induce immune responses to levels sufficient to alter disease progression.
Evaluation of cell profile during infection is one of the strategies to assess which cells are stimulated by events which modify the inflammatory process.
Several experimental studies have provided evidence that the allele C in the miR-146a C > G SNP could reduce mature miR-146a production, which might modify the inflammatory process [ 30].
This blocks the activation of T cells, thus modifying the inflammatory process.
Diseases of the intestines, including inflammatory processes, can modify ghrelin levels [ 39, 40].
Our study implies that SNP rs9931086 in SLC38A8 and genes CTLA-4, HDAC, and PPAR-alpha, which are related to inflammatory processes, may modify the effect of occupational exposure on lung function.

The quality of the endogenous priming of the immune system is also likely to be different because neo-epitopes on CII in cartilage are formed by a changed glycosylation pattern [ 33, 34] but also by processes modified by the inflammatory process itself, such as citrullination and oxidation [ 3, 35, 36].
Most acute and chronic neurodegenerative conditions are accompanied by neuroinflammation; yet the exact nature of the inflammatory processes and whether they modify disease progression is not well understood.
