Chemokine receptor CCR5 polymorphisms and Chagas' disease cardiomyopathy.

Tissue antigens - 1 Sept 2001

Calzada J E, Nieto A, Beraún Y, Martín J

Abstract excerpt

In this study we investigated the possible role of two CCR5 gene polymorphisms, CCR5Delta32 deletion and CCR5 59029 A-->G promoter point mutation, in determining the susceptibility to Trypanosoma cruzi infection as well as in the development of chagasic heart disease. These CCR5 polymorphisms were assessed in 85 seropositive (asymptomatic, n=53; cardiomyopathic, n=32) and 87 seronegative individuals. The...
