Commentary
Shared pathways to infectious disease susceptibility? Chiea C Khor, Martin L Hibberd Genome Med 2010, 2:52 (10 August 2010) Genomic research so far suggests that host susceptibility to different pathogens is controlled by discrete genes and pathways, but as technology develops it may unravel shared mechanisms across multiple pathogen groups.
