Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Interleukin 6 (IL-6), a proinflammatory cytokine, is elevated in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and is considered an independent predictor of T2D. IL-6 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with higher levels of IL-6. This study investigated the role of an IL-6 gene polymorphism and its possible association to T2D in the genetically homogeneous Greek population of the...
