Abstract excerpt
The aim of the present study was to establish the role of IL-6 and TGF-β1 gene polymorphisms in the risk of developing in-stent restenosis. Two IL-6 [rs1800796 (-572 G>C), rs2069827 (-1426 T>G)] and two TGF-β1 [rs1800469 (-509 T>C), rs1800470 (T29C)] gene polymorphisms were analyzed by 5' exonucl...
