Several mechanisms are supposed to contribute to this susceptibility. The exact reasons of the propensity of sickle cell patients to infection are not clear and are still matter of debate. Interferon gamma is a key cytokine involved namely in the defence against intracellular pathogens. We investigated a possible association of +874 T/A IFNγ polymorphism and infectious complications in sickle cell patients. Seventy-two sickle cell patients were typed for +874 T/A IFNγ polymorphism. Genotype frequencies were different between cases and controls. Indeed, T allele frequency was significantly higher in patients with infections than in patients without infections (χ² = 6.23 ; p = 0.013). Our results suggest that +874 T/A IFNγ polymorphism is associated with infectious complications in sickle cell patients. The T allele could be involved in infections in sickle cell patients.</description> <date>2009-01-06</date> </dc> </metadata> </record> </GetRecord> </OAI-PMH>
