Abstract excerpt
Allelic variants of cytokine genes seem to be involved in mechanisms of resistance or susceptibility to several diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of genotypes with the tumor necrosis factor-alpha TNF-alpha gene polymorphism G/A at position -308 and the IL-10 gene polymorphism G/A at position -1082, and to verify a possible association of these polymorphisms with...
