Interleukin-4 gene promoter polymorphism [C590T] and asthma in Kuwaiti Arabs.

International archives of allergy and immunology - 1 Jul 2000

Hijazi Z, Haider M Z

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have demonstrated an association of the T allele of a promoter polymorphism [C590T] of interleukin-4 (IL-4) gene with asthma/atopy in the US and Japanese populations, but data from the UK and Australian families failed to find an association. We have investigated the association of this [C590T] promoter polymorphism in Kuwaiti Arabs with asthma. METHODS: This study included 184 subjects...
