Mortality in HIV infection is independently predicted by host iron status and SLC11A1 and HP genotypes, with new evidence of a gene-nutrient interaction.
BACKGROUND: Iron-related genes and iron status may independently contribute to variable HIV outcomes. The nature of the biologically plausible gene-nutrient interaction remains unknown. OBJECTIVES: The objectives were to investigate whether iron-related genotypes and clinically abnormal iron status...
