Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between IL-3 gene polymorphism and the levels of serum IL-3 and eosinophil cation protein (ECP) for understanding the role of IL-3 gene polymorphism in the mechanism of childhood asthma. METHODS: The method of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was adopted in detecting +1923 site polymorphism of IL-13 gene in intron 3 region, ELISA was employed in detecting the...
