[Human African trypanosomiasis: involvement of host genetics].

Medecine tropicale : revue du Corps de sante colonial - 1 Apr 2007

Courtin D, Garcia A

Abstract excerpt

Two genetic epidemiological studies were carried out in the Ivory Coast and Democratic Republic of Congo to assess the role of human genetic diversity in susceptibility to human African trypanosomiasis (HAT). Findings showed that four single DNA polymorphisms located on genes coding for cytokines were correlated with a variable risk for development of the disease. Whereas presence of the rare A and T alleles for...
