Objective: To evaluate the association of the stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF1)-3'A polymorphism to HIV-1 infection, CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts, and viral load levels in a northwestern Mexican population.
Methods: We investigated allele and genotype frequencies of the SDF1-3'A polymorphism in 634 mestizo individuals from Northwest Mexico (204 HIV-1 infected persons, 256 uninfected blood donors, and 174 uninfected female sex workers) by the PCR- RFLP method and compared them using a x(2) test. We also searched for correlations between the polymorphism and CD4+ T lymphocyte and viral load counts.
