Evaluation of IL1B rs1143634 and IL6 rs1800796 Polymorphisms with Autism Spectrum Disorder in the Turkish Children.

Conclusion: This study concludes that rs1143634 is associated with the risk of ASD in Turkish children. Determining these polymorphisms in a larger sample group may contribute to understanding the etiology of ASD and developing new treatment protocols.
