pubmed-article:12517417pubmed:abstractTextMannose-binding lectin (MBL) is a constituent of the human innate immune system which may play an important role in combating a variety of infectious diseases. We investigated the distribution of MBL gene mutations in a Vietnamese population, using polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequence analysis, and sought associations with the outcome of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. For this purpose we used samples from a total of 123 patients with confirmed, well-defined HBV infections, representing a full spectrum of clinical presentation from acute to chronic to malignant states, as well as from 112 healthy controls. The only MBL gene mutation found in this population, that at codon 54 of exon 1, was present at an overall frequency of 0.12, with a trend towards a higher frequency in the HBV-infected group compared with controls (0.15 versus 0.08, P = 0.079). Within the HBV-infected group there was a non-significant trend towards higher viral loads in those with this mutation, accompanied by significantly higher serum transaminase levels in the same individuals. Segregation according to clinical presentation showed that the mutation was present at a significantly higher frequency in the group with acute hepatitis B (AHB) compared with the healthy control group (0.25 versus 0.08, P = 0.01), and was associated with higher serum transaminase levels. Our results indicate that a mutation of the MBL gene might influence the clinical outcome of HBV infection in Vietnamese patients.lld:pubmed
