Abstract excerpt
Imbalance between proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines may regulate the inflammatory reaction in the nasal polyps. Polymorphisms in the regulatory regions of the cytokines genes may influence their expression. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between an IL-1β and IL-4 promoter polymorphisms and nasal polyps. The C-511T promoter polymorphism of the IL-1β gene and C-590T promoter...
