Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether 3'UTR polymorphisms of the NRAMP1 gene are associated with tuberculosis in Hans. METHODS: 3'UTR polymorphisms of NRAMP1 gene were typed by PCR-RFLP among 147 patients with active tuberculosis and 145 healthy individuals. The relationship between 3'UTR polymorphisms and susceptibility to tuberculosis was studied, and cases were grouped according to genotypes. RESULTS: In the...
