Interleukin 4, interleukin 6 and interleukin 10 polymorphisms in children with acute and chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura

Abstract excerpt

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an immune-mediated disorder. We investigated the polymorphisms of interleukin (IL)-4 intron 3, IL-6 (-572 G/C), and IL-10 (-627 C/A) in 50 children with acute ITP, 30 children with chronic TIP, and 100 healthy individuals. There were significant differences in the RP1/RP2 genotype proportion (P = 0.04) and the RP2 allelic frequency (P = 0.03) of IL-4 intron 3 and the A/C...
