- Abstract:
-
INTRODUCTION: IL-10 is an immunoregulatory cytokine which may modulate disease expression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The IL-10 gene is highly polymorphic with a number of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region and two microsatellite loci, IL10.R and IL10.G, 4 kb and 1.1 kb 5' of the transcription initiation site. It has been reported that allele 2 of the IL10.R microsatellite (IL10.R2) is associated with increased IL-10 secretion and IL10.R3 with reduced secretion. Subseque...
