Genetic variation in PTX3 is associated with susceptibility to community-acquired pneumonia in adults: a retrospective case control study

2020-07-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Evidence indicates that single nucleoid polymorphisms (SNPs) of key molecules in innate immunity are related to clinical outcome of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is a member of the acute-phase reactants superfamily and plays an important role against various diseases. The purpose of the current study was to assess the association between PTX 3 SNP and the risk of CAP....
