Abstract excerpt
Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) has been hypothesized to be associated with the pathogenesis of asthma; however, results remain controversial. Furthermore, HLA-G expression could be modulated by the HLA-G 14-bp insertion (+)/deletion (-) polymorphism and by interleukin-10. In this study, the 14-bp polymorphism in exon 8 of the HLA-G gene, plasma soluble HLA-G, and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels in untreated...
