Abstract excerpt
AIM: To study possible association between three single nucleotide polymorphisms (-597G/A, -572C/G and -174G/C) of interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene promoter and breast cancer. METHODS: Genomic DNA was isolated from the venous blood leukocytes from 176 unrelated patients with breast cancer and 200 healthy unrelated females (control group). Polymorphisms of -597G/A, -572C/G and -174G/C, were genotyped by...
