Leprosy susceptibility: genetic variations regulate innate and adaptive immunity, and disease outcome.

Abstract excerpt

The past few years have been very productive concerning the identification of genes associated with leprosy. Candidate gene strategies using both case-control and family-based designs, as well as large-scale approaches such as linkage and gene-expression genomic scans and, more recently, genome-wide association studies, have refined and enriched the list of genes highlighting the most important innate and...
