Abstract excerpt
We have evaluated the association of polymorphisms in the intronic variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) regions of the human NKG2D, NKG2A, and IL-1RN genes with resistance and/or susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection in a total of 209 patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection (125 asymptomatic patients and 84 symptomatic patients with mild symptoms) and 355 healthy controls, using the PCR-RFLP method. The genotypic and...
