Abstract excerpt

The vitamin D endocrine system has been shown to influence the immune response and polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene have been associated with susceptibility to infectious diseases. We determined if the Cdx2, FokI and BsmI-ApaI-TaqI polymorphisms in the VDR gene were associated with nasal carriage of Staphylococcal aureus. We defined the S. aureus nasal carriage status (persistent, intermittent...
