[The genetic susceptibility to leprosy in humans].

Acta leprologica - 1 Jan 1996

Lagrange P H, Abel L

Abstract excerpt

The capacity of certain individuals to resist certain diseases, including leprosy, has for a long time been considered as being influenced by genetic factors. The clinical and pathological spectrum of leprosy, epidemiological heterogeneity, both geographic and ethnic, in the prevalence of polar forms, may be explained by genetic differences in host resistance. While the specific genes in question have not been...
