Association of MICA gene polymorphisms with liver fibrosis in schistosomiasis patients in the Dongting Lake region

Association of MICA gene polymorphisms with liver fibrosis in schistosomiasis patients in the Dongting Lake region

Major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related A (MICA) is a highly polymorphic gene located within the MHC class I region of the human genome. Expressed as a cell surface glycoprotein, MICA modulates immune surveillance by binding to its cognate receptor on natural killer cells, NKG2D, and...
