Toll-like receptor 4 polymorphism associated with the response to whole-cell pertussis vaccination in children from the KOALA study.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We examined the association between haplotype tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms in TLR4 and the pertussis toxin-specific immunoglobulin G response after whole-cell pertussis (wP) vaccination in 515 1-year-old children from the KOALA study. A lower titer was associated with the minor allele of rs2770150, supporting a role for Toll-like receptor 4 in the antibody response to wP vaccination.
