Association of specific haplotype of TNF with[alpha] Helicobacter pylori-mediated duodenal ulcer in eastern Indian population

A study investigated the association between cytokine gene polymorphisms and Helicobacter pylori-mediated gastroduodenal ulcer in an eastern Indian population. Data conclude that the promoter polymorphisms of the IL-1B promoter serve as a better marker for the study of association of cytokine polymo...

Description
Summary:A study investigated the association between cytokine gene polymorphisms and Helicobacter pylori-mediated gastroduodenal ulcer in an eastern Indian population. Data conclude that the promoter polymorphisms of the IL-1B promoter serve as a better marker for the study of association of cytokine polymorphisms with H. pylori-mediated duodenal ulcers.
