VEGF -2549 -2567 del18 polymorphism and irreversible bronchoconstriction in asthmatics.

CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed that the presence of del18 genotype at -2549 -2567 position in the promoter of VEGF gene, along with disease duration and other factors like cigarette smoking, associate with the risk of irreversible bronchoconstriction in asthmatics.
