Abstract excerpt

The -174 G/C polymorphism [rs1800795] of the IL6 gene is a candidate to explain individual variations in health and exercise related phenotypes. We compared -174 G/C genotypic and allelic frequencies in three groups of men of the same Caucasian (Spanish) descent: elite endurance athletes (cyclists, runners; n=100); elite power athletes (jumpers, throwers, sprinters; n=53) and non-athletic controls (n=100). The...
