Association between polymorphisms at the human IL-10 locus and systemic lupus erythematosus.
Recent studies have shown elevated IL-10 levels in several rheumatic autoimmune diseases, and particularly in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Such changes may have a genetic basis. We studied two novel polymorphic dinucleotide repeats in the IL-10 promoter region (IL10.G and IL10.R) in order to...
