Human genetic susceptibility to tuberculous meningitis in Vietnamese population
- Abstract:
-
A case-control study of TLR2 candidate found that genotype 597CC was associated with susceptibility to tuberculous meningitis (TBM) (OR = 3.26) 1). SNP C558T on TIRAP was found to be associated with increased susceptibility to TBM in this same Vietnamese cohort 2) (OR= 3.02). The co-inheritance of TLR2 SNP T597C and TIRAP SNP C558T increases susceptibility to TBM (OR = 5.4). The interaction between polymorphisms on TLR2 and TIRAP in TB patients and M. tuberculosis strains shows that individua...
