Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of two functional single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region of the interleukin-18 gene, at positions -607 and -137, with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. DESIGN: Genomic deoxyribonucleic acid was extracted, by the salting-out method, from peripheral blood leukocytes. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of the interleukin-18 gene at positions -607...
