The CD209 gene is located in a region linked previously to IBD and a CD209 functional polymorphism (rs4804803) has been associated to other inflammatory conditions.
A total of 2,176 individuals enrolled in tuberculosis case-control studies from four sub-Saharan Africa countries were genotyped for the CD209 -336A/G SNP (rs4804803).
CCR2 V64I (G/A), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) -2518 A/G, stromal cell derived factor-1alpha; (SDF-1alpha) 3'UTR G/A and DC-SIGN gene polymorphisms were studied by polymerase chain reaction based methods in HIV-1 infected patients without TB (n=151), with pulmonary TB (PTB) (n=81) and extrapulmonary TB (n=31), 155 PTB patients without HIV and 206 healthy controls.

A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promoter region of CD209 (-336 A/G; rs4804803) affects transcription and is associated with the severity of tuberculosis and dengue fever.
A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promoter region of CD209 (-336 A/G; rs4804803) affects transcription and is associated with the severity of tuberculosis and dengue fever.
The primary objective of this study was to investigate this issue in the model of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and human DC-SIGN encoding CD209 promoter SNP (rs4804803) in Russian Siberian population.
Previously the severity and outcome of dengue fever and hepatitis C (diseases caused by viruses from the family Flaviviridae) were associated with the rs4804803 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located in the promoter region of the human CD209 gene.
Thus, our results suggest that the CD209 gene promoter region rs2287886 SNP is associated with predisposition to severe forms of TBE in the Russian population.

An increase in the frequency of the rs2287886 SNP AA homozygotes and the A allele was detected among patients with severe central nervous system disease compared with the group of patients with meningitis (P=0.003 and 0.019), or a combined group of patients with mild forms (fever and meningitis) (P=0.003 and 0.026), or the control group (P=0.007 and 0.035).
Association analysis revealed that carriers of the Dectin-1(rs3901533 T/T) and Dectin-1(rs7309123 G/G) genotypes and DC-SIGN(rs4804800 G), DC-SIGN(rs11465384 T), DC-SIGN(7248637 A) and DC-SIGN(7252229 C) alleles had a significantly increased risk of IPA infection (OR = 5.59 95%CI 1.37-22.77; OR = 4.91 95%CI 1.52-15.89; OR = 2.75 95%CI 1.27-5.95; OR = 2.70 95%CI 1.24-5.90; OR = 2.39 95%CI 1.09-5.22 and OR = 2.05 95%CI 1.00-4.22, respectively).

Polymorphisms in the promoter region of CD209 gene (rs735239, rs4804803, rs2287886) were investigated in 112 hospitalized cases of dengue (DEN) and 104 healthy controls to find out whether they are associated with dengue in a Western Indian population.
Results revealed a significantly higher frequency of 'G' allele and 'G/G' genotype of rs2287886and A-A-G haplotype of CD209 gene in DEN compared to healthy controls [For 'G/G' genotype, P=0.0072, Odds ratio (OR) 2.43; For A-A-G haplotype, P=0.0033, OR 2].
The results suggest that rs2287886 G/G genotype of CD209 gene is associated with development of dengue requiring hospitalization while A/A genotype of rs735239 is associated with thrombocytopenia in dengue cases.
