Keywords: | Chagas congénita;Proteína ADAM12;ALPP;Metaloproteinasa 2 de la Matriz;Metaloproteinasa 9 de la Matriz;Polimorfismo de Nucleótido Simple | Issue Date: | 15-Apr-2016 | Journal: | The Journal of infectious diseases | Abstract: | It is currently unclear why only a proportion of children born to Trypanosoma cruzi-infected mothers acquire the infection. We have examined the association of 11 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in genes coding for placental expression enzymes as genetic markers of susceptibility to congenital T. cruzi infection (hereafter, "congenital infection"): rs2014683 and rs1048988 in ALPP; rs11244787 and rs1871054 in ADAM12; rs243866, rs243865, rs17859821, rs243864, and rs2285053 in MMP2; and rs3918242 and rs2234681 in MMP9. |
