Association of immune system gene polymorphisms with quantitative traits pathogenetically important for chronic virus hepatitis
The IL4 C(−590)T, IL4RA Ile50Val, and TNF G(−308)A polymorphisms were tested for association with quantitative traits important for chronic virus hepatitis, including the levels of IL4, IL10, IL12, TNF-α, fibronectin, collagenase, the proteinase inhibitor, macroglobulin, and free and protein-bound (...

Zusammenfassung: | The
IL4
C(−590)T,
IL4RA
Ile50Val, and
TNF
G(−308)A polymorphisms were tested for association with quantitative traits important for chronic virus hepatitis, including the levels of IL4, IL10, IL12, TNF-α, fibronectin, collagenase, the proteinase inhibitor, macroglobulin, and free and protein-bound (PBO) oxyproline. Allele A of the
TNF
G(−308)A polymorphism was associated with a lower TNF-α production by mononuclear cells, a higher production of IL4 and IL12, and a lower PBO level. The genotype CT of the
IL4
C(−590)T polymorphism was associated with a high PBO level. |
