Association of interleukin-6 -174G/C promoter polymorphism with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy in dialysis patients.

Kidney international - 1 Aug 2003

Losito Attilio, Kalidas Kamini, Santoni Stefania, Jeffery Steve

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Gene polymorphisms of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the chemokine receptor CX3CR1, have been found in association with cardiovascular disease in the general population. In dialysis patients, in whom the prevalence of cardiovascular comorbidity is striking...
