Genetic polymorphisms of interleukin-4 third intron region in the Malaysian patients with systemic lupus erythematosus

In this study, we analysed the genetic polymorphisms present in the third intron region of Interleukin-4 gene in Malaysian patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. Overall, the RP I and II alleles were found evenly distributed in both the SLE patients and control individuals. There was no signifi...
