Vitamin D receptor genetic polymorphisms and tuberculosis: updated systematic review and meta-analysis.

The international journal of tuberculosis and lung disease : the official journal of the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease - 1 Jan 2010

Gao L, Tao Y, Zhang L, Jin Q

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Host genetic susceptibility has been suggested as one of the most important explanations for inter-individual differences in tuberculosis (TB) risk. The vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene has been studied as a candidate locus due to genetic polymorphisms that affects the activity of the receptor and subsequent downstream vitamin D-mediated effects. METHODS: We reviewed published studies on VDR...
