Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic variations of Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) and CXC-chemokine receptor type1 (CXCR1), the key elements of innate immune system and their association with urinary tract infection (UTI) were studied in general population. In present study we investigate genetic variation of these genes in diabetic patients (3 to 4 times higher prevalence of UTI in comparison to general population). METHODS: A...
