Abstract excerpt
Associations of interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene promoter polymorphisms and pleural tuberculosis risk remain unclear. The objective of this study was to determine IL-10 gene promoter polymorphisms at -1082, -819 and -592 sites and their protein production in pleural fluid (PF) in patients with and without pleural tuberculosis. IL-10 gene promoter polymorphisms at the -1082, -819 and -592 sites were genotyped using a...
