Manganese Superoxide Dismutase and Chemokine Genes Polymorphisms in Chinese Patients with Anterior Uveitis

Abstract

The 47A polymorphism in the MnSOD gene and the -2518G polymorphism in the CCL2 gene are associated with the development of AU in HLA-B27-positive and -negative Chinese patients, respectively. Further studies to evaluate the interactions of the HLA-B27 status and these SNPs are warranted.
