[Relationship between CCR5 gene polymorphism and condyloma acuminata].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between CCR5 delta32 gene polymorphism and condyloma acuminata.


METHODS
We used polymerase chain reaction to amplify the CCR5 gene fragments in 60 patients with condyloma acuminata and 50 age- and sampling date-matched controls, and compared the difference of genotypes between these two groups.


RESULTS
No genotype difference was found between these two groups.


CONCLUSIONS
Condyloma acuminata are not associated with genetic polymorphism of CCR5 delta32 gene.
