Pilot screening study of targeted genetic polymorphisms for association with seasonal influenza hospital admission
AssociationN=14,471Tonia C. Carter et al.(2018)· Journal of Medical Virology

This pilot screening study evaluated 32 SNPs in viral immune response genes for association with hospitalized seasonal influenza in adults of European ancestry using a discovery group (26 cases, 993 controls) and two validation groups (84 cases, 4,076 controls; 128 cases, 9,187 controls). The study failed to replicate the previously reported association between IFITM3 rs12252 and hospitalized influenza (P > 0.05), and a preliminary finding of association with SLFN13 rs8072510 (P = 0.0099 in discovery group) was not confirmed in validation groups.

About IFNGR1

This gene (IFNGR1) encodes the ligand-binding chain (alpha) of the gamma interferon receptor. Human interferon-gamma receptor is a heterodimer of IFNGR1 and IFNGR2. A genetic variation in IFNGR1 is associated with susceptibility to Helicobacter pylori infection. In addition, defects in IFNGR1 are a cause of mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease, also known as familial disseminated atypical mycobacterial infection. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
