Abstract excerpt
The prevalence of TLR2 gene polymorphisms 2258G/A, 896A/G and 1196C/T of TLR4 gene in children with atopic dermatitis (AD) as compared to the control group has been examined. Results of the distribution analysis of genotypes and alleles of TLR2 and TLR4 genes explicitly show that TLR4 gene mutant allele 896G is detected more frequently in children with AD with increased susceptibility to acute viral respiratory...
