Abstract excerpt
We determined the occurrence of the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -403A/G and -28C/G in the promoter region of RANTES in 1082 Chinese blood donors from northern and southern China and 249 HIV patients from southern China. Compared to healthy adults, Chinese AIDS patients had a significantly higher frequency of the -403G allele and haplotype I, -403G/-28C (P < 0.05), and a lower frequency of the -403A/A...
