SLAM and DC-SIGN measles receptor polymorphisms and their impact on antibody and cytokine responses to measles vaccine

The results suggest that DC-SIGN −139C/T, −336C/T and −871C/T polymorphisms may modulate cytokine (but not antibody) responses to the measles component of MMR vaccine. Furthermore, contrasting previous studies, SLAM polymorphisms do not appear to affect measles antibody or cytokine responses in this cohort.
