Innate Immunity Genes Influence the Severity of Acute Appendicitis

22 Jul 2004

Abstract excerpt

In Brief Objective: Using acute appendicitis as a model, we tested the hypothesis that polymorphisms in genes involved in host defense can be associated with the severity of local infection-inflammation in humans. Summary Background Data: Innate immunity is the body's front-line system for antimicrobial host defense. Local inflammation is a major innate immune mechanism for containing and destroying microbes, but...
