“…However, in the present study significant association of either SDF1-3'A polymorphism or CCL3L1 CN towards susceptibility to HIV infection in Indian population was not found. The allelic frequency of SDF1-3'A observed in this study was similar to that reported in North Indian (20.4%) [15] and South Indian (17-35%) [16] populations. The lack of significant association compelled us to think that a single type of genetic variation (like SNP or CNVs) might not show an association towards disease susceptibility or resistance but the combinations of these types of genetic variations could provide a better insight in understanding the mechanism behind the disease development.…”

“…Amongst the seropositive individuals the frequency was higher at 48 % though the difference was insignificant. Frequency of 48 and 24 % amongst a diverse population in Andhra Pradesh [18] and Northern India [26] respectively were recorded in [9,23]. We recorded only heterozygous mutants for CCR2-64I alleles.…”

“…However, the disease-retarding role of homozygosity for the CXCL12-3'A allele has not been confirmed in other cohorts (Mummidi et al, 1998;Wang et al, 2003;van Rij et al, 1998;Magierowska et al, 1999;Rousset et al, 1999;Brambilla et al, 2000;Soriano et al, 2002). Verma et al (2007) observed a low frequency of CCR5-Δ32 (1.5%) and of CCR2-64I (9.1%) in healthy Northern Indians, suggesting high vulnerability of North Indians to HIV-1 infection. However, the allelic frequency of the CXCL12 3'A was high (20.4%) in the healthy HIV-1 seronegative Northern Indians included in their study, which was similar to that observed in South Indians (17.0%-35.0%) and South European populations (14.0%-33.0%) (Ramana et al, 2001).…”
