  • Title: Distribution of CCR5-delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A mutations in populations from the Brazilian Amazon region.

    Abstract:
    The frequency distribution of the CCR5-delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A alleles was studied in the urban population of Belém and in Afro-Brazilians, Amerindians, and Japanese immigrants in the state of Pará, Brazil. The results suggest that Amerindians may be genetically more susceptible to HIV-1 infection and disease progression than the other human groups studied.
