Ethnic Differences in the Distribution of Interleukin-6 Polymorphisms Among Three Brazilian Ethnic Groups

1 Jan 2005

Abstract excerpt

Polymorphisms in the interleukin-6 promoter region have been associated with diseases. In this study we investigated the -634G/C and -174G/C IL-6 promoter polymorphisms in three Brazilian ethnic groups. We verified that the allele frequencies of the two polymorphisms and haplotype frequencies varied significantly between the populations.
