Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), particularly those within regulatory regions of genes that code for cytokines often impact expression levels and can be disease modifiers. Investigating associations between cytokine genotype and disease outcome provides valuable insight into disease etiology and potential therapeutic intervention. Traditionally, genotyping for cytokine SNPs has been conducted using...
