Tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms in the IRF1 and IRF8 genes and tuberculosis susceptibility.

Genes encoding IRF1 and IRF8 protein have been proposed as candidate tuberculosis susceptibility genes. In order to elucidate whether the IRF1 and IRF8 variants were associated with tuberculosis susceptibility, we conducted a case-control study consisting of 495 controls and 452 ethnically matched c...
