Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to investigate whether the promoter's polymorphisms at the TNF alpha (TNF-alpha) gene were associated with the genetic susceptibility to Chagas' disease. We analyzed the TNF-alpha (positions -308, and -238) polymorphisms in a sample of 54 serologically positive chagasic individuals and in 169 healthy controls. The patients were divided according to clinical characteristics as...
