Abstract excerpt
AIM: IL32 is a pleiotropic intracellular cytokine with an emergent role in tuberculosis. The different isoforms of IL32: α, β, γ and δ have varying pro and anti-inflammatory potentials. We studied the role of genetic variants of IL32 and its isoforms in susceptibility to tuberculosis using a case-household contact association study. METHODOLOGY: Using a targeted sequencing approach, IL32 (+1kb) gene was sequenced...
