Functional Analysis of -351 Interleukin-9 Promoter Polymorphism Reveals an Activator Controlled by NF-κB

Genetic studies have shown linkages for asthma to the chromosomal region 5q31-q33 in humans that includes the IL-9 gene. An A-to-G base substitution has been identified at bp -351 in the IL-9 promoter. The role of this polymorphism in IL-9 promoter function was assessed utilizing CD4+ T cells purifi...
