Haplotype frequencies of polymorphic variants of the NFKB1 gene in pulmonary tuberculosis

Abstract

The NF-kB signaling pathway is one of their key mechanisms that trigger the synthesis of pro-inflammatory factors in response to infection with pathogens. The data on the study of haplotype frequencies of the NFKB1 gene by a panel of polymorphic variants are discussed: rs28362491, rs160993, rs4648050, rs4648051, rs4648055, rs4648058, rs4648068 in a sample of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB, n=169) and in the population control group (PC, n=96). DNA isolated from blood samples using phenol-chloroform extraction, genotyped by real-time PCR. 49 haplotypic variants were identified in the group of patients, 33 in the control group. The spectrum and frequency of major haplotypes were determined: in the TB group – DCCGACG, ICTAGGA with a total frequency of 43%; in the PC sample – DCCGACG, ICTAGGA, ICTAGCA and DCCGAGG (a total frequency of 60%).
