Abstract excerpt
Genetic polymorphism in proinflammatory cytokine genes may be associated with the etiology of preterm birth (PTB). The current study was designed with the aim to explore the association of genetic polymorphisms and mRNA expression of IL-1α, IL-1β, and TNF-α gene with preterm birth in the Saudi population. Genotyping of genomic DNA of 50 PTB patients and an equal number of controls were carried out using TaqMan...
