Abstract excerpt
Seventy-seven healthy Ethiopians were genotyped for polymorphisms in the immunoglobulin G Fc receptors (FcgammaR) FcgammaRIIa, FcgammaRIIIa and FcgammaRIIIb, including the SH allele. The genotype and allele frequencies were compared with those of 96 healthy Norwegians. Ethiopians had higher frequencies of the SH-FcgammaRIIIb (P = 0.001), FcgammaRIIIa-158 V (P = 0.026) and FcgammaRIIIb-Na2 (P = 0.046) alleles. The...
