摘要
We investigated the possible association between PRF1 gene polymorphisms and HIV-1 vertical transmission in Brazilian children by analyzing PRF1 gene coding and untranslated regions in 173 perinatally infected children (HIV+), 51 exposed uninfected (HIV-), and 171 HIV-unexposed uninfected children. Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified in our samples. The rs885822 C allele and CC genotype were significantly more frequent in HIV-negative than in HIV-positive patients and associated with a protective effect toward HIV vertical transmission.
