Abstract excerpt

Recently, a link between high levels of circulating IL-6 and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been proposed. In addition, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of the IL-6 gene have been reported to be related to several inflammatory-related conditions, including cancer. The purpose of this article is: (1) to evaluate the frequencies of SNPs in the IL-6 promoter region at position -174...
