Abstract excerpt

Polymorphisms in the cytokine genes are known to influence cytokine levels and may be associated with outcome of infections. We investigated the polymorphisms in the cytokine genes namely IFN-gamma (+874 and +5644), IL-2 (-330 and +160), IL-4 (VNTR), IL-6 (-174), IL-10 (-1082 and -819) and IL-12B (+1188) in 188 normal healthy subjects (NHS) and 166 pulmonary tuberculosis patients (PTB) using polymerase chain...
