[Correlation of mannose-binding lectin gene promoter polymorphism and plasma MBL concentration with HIV susceptibility in northern Chinese Han population].

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To study the correlations of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) gene promoter polymorphisms and plasma MBL concentrations to the susceptibility to HIV infection in northern Chinese Han population. METHODS: This case-control study included 115 HIV-infected patients and 115 non-infected healthy individuals, in whom the MBL gene promoter polymorphisms were detected using pyrosequencing technique and plasma MBL...
