The Genetic Association of SP-A and SP-D Polymorphisms with Tuberculosis and Latent TB in the Pakistani Population

2026-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health concern, posing a substantial burden in Pakistan. Genetic factors play a pivotal role in individual susceptibility to TB. Surfactant protein A and surfactant protein D are essential components of the innate immune system, contributing to pulmonary host defense against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). <h4>Aim</h4> This study aimed to investiga...
