Abstract excerpt
We genotyped by PCR-RFLP 141 renal patients (77 men and 64 women with ages between 12 and 58, predominantly Caucasians) for allelic variants of three polymorphic sites of the interleukin-10 gene promoter, previously showed to be associated with different production of IL-10 cytokine: -1082 (G/A), -819 (C/T), and -592 (C/A). These polymorphisms may confer flexibility in the common immune responses and influence...
