Abstract excerpt
The most important proteins regulating cellular zinc homeostasis belong to two protein families of zinc transporters, the solute carrier family 30 (SLC30A) and solute carrier family 39 (SLC39A). We aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the SLC30A and SLC39A genes and its association with blood and vaginal tissue zinc levels since vaginal tissue zinc level may play a role in vaginal...
