Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To explore the mechanisms of interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) in response to enterovirus-71-associated hand, foot and mouth disease (EV71-HFMD), in terms of DNA methylation, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotype and gene expression. METHODS: In total, 120 patients with EV71-HFMD (60 with mild EV71-HFMD and 60 with severe EV71-HFMD) and 60 healthy controls were enrolled in...
