## BACKGROUND. Tumor necrosis factor-โฃ (TNF-โฃ) and stress proteins (heat shock proteins) are determining factors in the immune response to tumor cells. The authors designated a large study to investigate the susceptibility and prognostic implications of the genetic variation in TNF-โฃ and hsp70-2 i
A recent genome-wide study revealed an association between variation in the PNPLA3 gene and liver fat content. In addition, the PNPLA3 single-nucleotide polymorphism rs738409 (M148I) was reported to be associated with advanced alcoholic liver disease in alcohol-dependent individuals of Mestizo desce
