1 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: To study the occurrence and prognosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TNF-α rs1800629, IL-6 rs1800796, and MyD88 rs7744 loci in the TLR4/NF-κB pathway. METHODS: Genotypes were analyzed for TNF-α rs1800629, IL-6 rs1800796, and MyD88 rs7744 loci. Plasma TNF-α and IL-6 levels and MyD88 mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells...
