Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Behçet disease (BD) is associated with the immune system, especially neutrophilic activity. The CXCR1, CXCR2 and CXCL5 genes mediate the activation and migration of neutrophils. AIM: To investigate CXCR1, CXCR2 and CXCL5 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and examine their association with BD. METHODS: We studied polymorphic sites in CXCR1 (four sites: rs16858811, rs9282752, rs16858809 and...
