Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Patients with osteomyelitis have a decreased rate of spontaneous apoptosis of their peripheral blood neutrophils. The G(-248)A polymorphism in the promoter region of the bax gene is associated with prolonged peripheral blood neutrophil survival in leukemic patients and may play some role in osteomyelitis. METHODS: Bax G(-248)A promoter polymorphism was detected by DNA amplification using polymerase...
