Abstract excerpt

Interleukin (IL)-16 plays a fundamental role in inflammatory diseases, as well as in the development and progression of tumors. Genetic variation in DNA sequence of IL16 gene may lead to altered cytokine production and/or activity, and this variation may modulate an individual's susceptibility to nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). To test this hypothesis, we investigated the association of IL16 gene polymorphisms...
