Abstract excerpt
Increased inflammatory activity is known to accompany aging. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of inflammatory mediator genes might therefore affect the aging process. Relation of eight SNPs (tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-alpha] -1031 T/C, interleukin-10 [IL-10] -819 T/C, IL-1beta -511 C/T, IL-6 -634 C/G, IL-18 -607 A/C, transforming growth factor-beta [TGF-beta] +869 C/T, matrix metalloproteinase-1 [MMP-1]...
