Abstract excerpt
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a central nervous system (CNS) disease caused by the neurotropic, positive-sense RNA virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). A possible association between predisposition to TBE in a Russian population and two polymorphisms, a 32bp deletion in the coding region of the chemokine receptor CCR5 gene and the rs3775291 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (G/A, Leu412Phe) in exon...
