Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Inter-individual variation in the severity of pneumoconiosis has been described, even with the same environmental exposure. We hypothesized that TNF-alpha promoter polymorphisms associate with lung responses to environmental exposure in coal worker's pneumoconiosis (CWP) patients. METHODS: We examined polymorphisms at -238, -308, and -376 in 124 patients with CWP who had similar dust exposure history...
