Tumour necrosis factor alpha and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.

Parasitology today (Personal ed.) - 1 Feb 1999

Blackwell J M

Abstract excerpt

Allelic associations between polymorphisms at the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) locus within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and susceptibility to a range of autoimmune and infectious diseases have been established in humans. Among these is the severe and debilitating mucocutaneous form of leishmaniasis (MCL) caused by Leishmania braziliensis. This was preempted by the demonstration of high levels of...
