Abstract excerpt
Cytokines are known to be important mediators during liver graft outcome and their gene polymorphism could affect the overall expression and secretion of cytokines. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the effect of TGF-beta1 polymorphism in 150 liver allograft recipients. Genotyping PCR-SSP were performed for TGF-beta1 gene (codon 10T/C and 25C/G). TGF-beta1 polymorphism at codon 10 and 25 correlate...
