Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a potent proinflammatory cytokine, which is postulated to play a role in mechanism of renal allograft rejection and strongly induces interferon (IFN)-gamma production. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the G-137C IL-18 promoter polymorphism with acute allograft rejection in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). METHODS: A total of 226 RTRs and 148...
