Abstract excerpt

Our aim was to evaluate the association of functional polymorphism of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) gene with Chagas disease. Our study includes two independent cohorts: 240 chagasic patients and 199 controls from Colombia; and 74 chagasic patients and 85 controls from Peru. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) -173 G/C of MIF gene was determined using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system...
