Association of polymorphic variants of IL-1 β and IL-1RN genes in the development of Graves' disease in Kashmiri population (North India).
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that both promoter and exon polymorphisms of IL-1β gene have a significant role in the risk of developing GD, whereas IL-1RNVNTR has no association with GD.
