Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: In order to elucidate the genetic background to EOP it is useful to investigate associations with genetic polymorphisms of immune response genes, whose products play a r le in the inflammatory process. The aim of this study was to examine IL1A and IL1B genetic polymorphisms in unrelat...
