Polymorphisms in some proinflammatory genes (TNFα and β, IL-1β, IL-6, ADAM17) in severe chronic venous disease.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Chronic venous disease (CVD) is a common disorder of lower extremities. OBJECTIVES: The study was scheduled to investigate the relationship between polymorphisms in major proinflammatory genes TNF α (-238 A/G; -308 A/G), TNF β (NcoI), IL-1β (+3953 T/C); IL-6 (-174 G/C; -596 G/C) and ADAM17 (3'TACE) and CVD risk. Genotype-phenotype study was calculated to test possible association between examined...
