cord-311913-cplhq4k9	SATO, Satoshi	Association of mannose‐binding lectin gene polymorphisms with Kawasaki disease in the Japanese	2009-11-23		.txt	text/plain	2310	145	55	Method: The frequencies of the genotypes, defined as mutations in codons 52, 54 and 57, and the functional promoter variants of the MBL were determined in 45 patients with KD. 11 MBL2 gene polymorphism at codon 54 has shown to be associated with systemic lupus erythematosus, 12,13 rheumatic disease, and common variable immunodeficiency. 10 In this study, the combination of codon-54 polymorphism and promoter variants in the MBL2 gene were significantly higher in the KD group than that in the control group (P < 0.05). This study has shown that, in a population of individuals born in Japan, having codon 54 variants in the MBL2 gene is significantly associated with susceptibility to KD but not with coronary arterial lesions.
