The Interleukin-6 Gene Promoter Polymorphism -174 and Atherosclerotic Events in Overweight Transplanted Patients

Chronic inflammation plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis. We hypothesized that combining overweight and a greater genetic capacity to produce IL-6 predicted by IL-6 gene promoter polymorphism at position -174 (G→C) may allow to identify individuals exhibiting higher IL-6 and C-reactive protein (...
