Multiple CD59 Polymorphisms in Chinese Patients with Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection.

ABSTRACT:

Methods

A case-control study was conducted to investigate the SNPs at CD59 rs1047581, rs7046, rs2231460, rs184251026, rs41275164, rs831633, rs704700, rs41275166, and rs10768024 by sequence-specific primer-polymerase chain reaction (SSP-PCR) in 900 tuberculosis patients and 1,534 controls.

Results

The minor allele frequencies at rs2231460, rs184251026, rs41275164, and rs41275166 were extremely low both in the Cases (0.00%-0.61%) and in the Controls (0.07%-0.43%), comparatively at rs1047581, rs7046, rs831633, rs704700, and rs10768024 were notably higher both in the Cases (8.23%-48.39%) and in the Controls (8.57%-47.16%). Among the nine SNPs, only homozygous CC genotype at rs10768024 showed a significant protective effect against TB than homozygous TT genotype (OR(95% CI) = 0.5
