Association of interleukin-6 gene promoter polymorphism with coronary artery disease in Pakistani families.

TheScientificWorldJournal - 1 Jan 2013

Satti Humayoon Shafiq, Hussain Sabir, Javed Qamar

Abstract excerpt

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a well-known inflammatory cytokine and suggested to be involved in the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). IL-6 gene expression has been investigated with controversy in CAD patients. This study investigates the association of the IL-6 gene expression with CAD, the molecular basis for the regulation of interleukin-6 expression in a Pakistani population. Our data show that the...
