Abstract excerpt
Autoimmune-associated orbital inflammation refers to the inflammation of orbital tissues resulting from immune system dysregulation. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) plays a critical role in immune defense, tissue repair, inflammation, and tumor progression. Given its immunomodulatory functions, this study aimed to investigate whether single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IL17-related genes contribute to susceptibility...
