Polymorphic Sites at the Immunoregulatory CTLA-4 Gene Are Associated with Chronic Chagas Disease and Its Clinical Manifestations
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease affects approximately 10 million people mainly in Latin America. The immune regulation by the host seems to be an essential factor for disease evolution, and immune system inhibitory molecules such as CTLA-4 and PD-1 favor the maintenance of peripheral tolerance. Consideri...
