Association of polymorphisms of interleukin-18 gene promoter region with chronic hepatitis B in Chinese Han population.

World journal of gastroenterology - 21 Mar 2005

Zhang Ping-An, Wu Jian-Min, Li Yan, Yang Xiang-Sheng

Abstract excerpt

AIM: To investigate the polymorphisms of interleukin-18 (IL-18) gene promoters, and to disclose whether such polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to chronic hepatitis B in Chinese Han population. METHODS: Using polymerase chain reaction with sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) method, the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the promoter region of IL-18 gene at position -607 and -137 were...
