Abstract excerpt
We aimed to evaluate the association of IL-6 gene polymorphisms at positions of -174 and -572 and predisposition of endometrial adenocarcinoma (EAC) in a Chinese population. EAC patients have remarkably higher frequency of IL-6 -174 CC genotype [odds ratio (OR) =1.56, 95 % confidence interval (CI) =1.07-2.23; P = 0.03], IL-6 -572 CC genotype (OR =1.93, 95%CI =1.17-3.15; P = 0.01) and IL-6 -174 C allele (OR =1.22,...
