摘      要：Objective:To investigate the association between the cluster of differentiation 14(CD14)-I59C/T(rs2569190) gene polymorphism and susceptibility to acute brucellosis in an Iranian population.Methods:The study included 153 Iranian patients with active brucellosis and 128 healthy individuals as the control group.Genotyping of the CD 14 variant was performed using an amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction method.Results:The prevalence of CD14-159 TT and CT genotypes were associated with increased risk of brucellosis[odds ratio(OR)=l.993.95%confidence interval(95%CD=1.07-3.71.P=0.03 for CT:OR=3.869.95%CI= 1.91-7.84,P=0.01 for TT genotype.Additionally,the minor allele(T) was significantly more frequently present in brucellosis patients than in controls(61%vs.45%.respectively),and was a risk factor for brucellosis(OR=3.058.95%CI= 1.507-6.315.P=0.01).Condusions:The findings provid suggestive evidence of association of the CDI4-159C/T gene polymorphism with susceptibility to acute brucellosis in the Iranian population.
