The single nucleotide polymorphism, rs763110 (-844 T/C) of the FASL gene, is located within a putative binding motif of CAAT/enhancer-binding protein β transcription factor. Higher basal expression of FASL is significantly associated with the FASL-844 C allele compared with the FASL-844 T allele suggesting that the FASL-844 T/C polymorphism may influence FASL expression and FASL-mediated signalling, and...
