Vitamin D receptor ApaI gene polymorphism and tuberculosis susceptibility: a meta-analysis.

Genetic testing and molecular biomarkers - 1 May 2014

Areeshi Mohammad Yahya, Mandal Raju Kumar, Panda Aditya K, Haque Shafiul

Abstract excerpt

AIM: Vitamin D performs its actions through the vitamin D receptor (VDR), which acts as a transcriptional factor. Many case-control studies have been performed in the past to elucidate the association of the ApaI polymorphism of VDR gene and the risk of tuberculosis (TB). However, these studies have shown inconsistent and conflicting results. In the present study, a meta-analysis was performed to investigate the...
