Cytokines play key roles in immune responses, inflammation and fibrosis. The balance between levels of cytokines, their receptors and specific inhibitors controls inflammatory reactions in tissues. The pathogenesis of lichen sclerosus is unknown but probably involves cytokine mediators such as inter
## Abstract Interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of Graves' disease. The aim of this study was to test whether the IL‐1‐β gene promoter region and exon 5 and IL‐1 receptor antagonist (IL‐1Ra) gene intron 2 polymorphisms could be useful genetic markers for susceptibi
Several reports have suggested that one or both of the trinucleotide repeat polymorphisms in the human androgen receptor (hAR) gene, (CAG) n coding for polyglutamine and (GGC) n coding for polyglycine, may be associated with prostate cancer risk; but no study has investigated their association with
