Genetic variations in the TLR3 locus are associated with eosinophilic esophagitis
13 Sept 2017
Abstract excerpt
Background Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an antigen-driven disease mediated by an abnormal immune Th2 response. Objective The objective of this article is to investigate genes associated with regulating immune responses leading to disease susceptibility. Methods Twenty-seven tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) selected in five candidate genes ( TLR3, TLR4, FOXP3, FLG and TSLP) were genotyped in 218...
