Mannose-binding lectin and susceptibility to tuberculosis: a meta-analysis.

Clinical and experimental immunology - 1 Oct 2010

Denholm J T, McBryde E S, Eisen D P

Abstract excerpt

It has been proposed that mannose-binding lectin (MBL) levels may impact upon host susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB) infection; however, evidence to date has been conflicting. We performed a literature review and meta-analysis of 17 human trials considering the effect of MBL2 genotype and/or MBL levels and TB infection. No significant association was demonstrated between MBL2 genotype and pulmonary TB...
