[Genetics of susceptibility and resistance to tuberculosis].

Der Internist - 1 Nov 2003

Horstmann R D

Abstract excerpt

As shown in twin studies, the inherited predisposition plays an important role in tuberculosis. Genetic influences may be specified in two ways. First, variants of genes whose products are involved in apparently disease-relevant pathways may be tested in population-based studies. Applying this approach, associations with pulmonary tuberculosis have been reported for variants of the genes encoding mannose-binding...
