Host genetic susceptibility to mycetoma.

PLoS neglected tropical diseases - 1 Apr 2020

Ali Rayan S, Newport Melanie J, Bakhiet Sahar Mubarak, Ibrahim Muntaser E, Fahal Ahmed Hassan

Abstract excerpt

Mycetoma is one of the badly neglected tropical diseases, characterised by subcutaneous painless swelling, multiple sinuses, and discharge containing aggregates of the infecting organism known as grains. Risk factors conferring susceptibility to mycetoma include environmental factors and pathogen factors such as virulence and the infecting dose, in addition to host factors such as immunological and genetic...
