Abstract excerpt

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is a principal cytokine that may induce weight loss. TNF-alpha -308 G to A polymorphism increases transcription of TNF-alpha in vitro. The aim of this study was to investigate whether TNF-alpha gene promoter polymorphism at position -308 (G to A substitution) is one of the factors playing a role in the development of anorexia nervosa (AN). Sixteen patients with AN, aged...
