Genetic Diversity of Toll-Like Receptors and Immunity to M. leprae Infection
Genetic association studies of leprosy cohorts across the world have identified numerous polymorphisms which alter susceptibility and outcome to infection with Mycobacterium leprae. As expected, many of the polymorphisms reside within genes that encode components of the innate and adaptive immune sy...
