Impact of single nucleotide polymorphism of IL-27P28 rs153109 and IFITM3 rs12252 on susceptibility and severity of COVID-19 in Egyptian patients: a case control study
IL27P28 rs153109 AG and AA genotypes of IL27 may be associated with the susceptibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection but not the severity. Concerning the IFITM3 rs12252 SNP, we could not confirm its influence on either susceptibility or the severity of SARS-CoV-2 in this Egyptian population.
