Recent studies indicate that the long intergenic non-coding RNA <i>LINC00152</i> plays crucial roles in various human diseases. Here, we investigated whether levels of <i>LINC00152</i> or its genetic variants correlate with the clinical features of tuberculosis (TB) in western Chinese patients. We genotyped the single nucleotide polymorphism <i>LINC00152</i> rs80292941 in 476 TB patients and 475 healthy subjects using a custom-by-design 48-Plex SNPscan Kit, and measured relative levels of <i>LIN ...[more]
