Abstract excerpt
CONCLUSION: A significant association was found of oropharyngeal tularemia with SLC11A1 allele polymorphism (INT4 G/C) and MBL2 C + 4T (P/Q). These results indicate C allele and Q allele might be a risk factor for the development of oropharyngeal tularemia. AIM: This study aimed to investigate the relationship of SLC11A1, MBL, and P2X7 gene polymorphism with oropharyngeal tularemia. METHODS: The study included...
