Abstract excerpt
Data exist linking elevated epithelial neutrophil activating peptide (ENA-78) concentrations with myriad inflammatory conditions. ENA-78 is encoded by the CXCL5 gene which has recently been shown to be polymorphic in nature (rs352046 and rs425535). No functional data on these polymorphisms exist. We investigated whether CXCL5 polymorphisms are associated with differences in plasma ENA-78 concentrations or...
