Racial variation in toll-like receptor variants among women with pelvic inflammatory disease.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 15 Mar 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Racial disparities exist in gynecological diseases. Variations in Toll-like receptor (TLR) genes may alter signaling following microbial recognition. METHODS: We explored genotypic differences in 6 functional variants in 4 TLR genes (TLR1, TLR2, TLR4, TLR6) and the adaptor molecule TIRAP between 205 African American women and 51 white women with clinically suspected pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)....
