Abstract excerpt
Our aim was to investigate whether genetic polymorphism of IL-1Beta-511, IL-1RN, TNF-A-308 are involved in the susceptibility to duodenal ulcer (DU). 437 unrelated Chinese Han patients with DU and 148 healthy controls were genotyped by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method for the IL-1B-511, TNF-A-308 gene polymorphisms and the VNTR polymorphism in intron 2 of the IL-1RN...
