title: Influence of KIR gene polymorphisms and their HLA ligands on susceptibility to dengue
abstract: Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes encode activating and inhibitory molecules present on natural killer (NK) cells and have as binding human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of KIR genes and their class I HLA ligands in susceptibility to dengue fever in a population from South Brazil through a case-control study. Ninety-five subjects with confirmed diagnoses of dengue participated in this study, along with a c
