Interleukin-1 Beta Gene Polymorphism and Traditional Constitution in Obese Women

In adipose tissue metabolism, cytokines were major regulators. mRNA expression studies show that adipocytes can synthesize both tumor necrosis factor-alpha and several interleukins (ILs), notably IL-1 beta (IL-1β) and IL-6. In particular, IL-1β expression is under strong genetic control. We examined...
