Cytokine typing: SNP allele frequencies in the Iranian population.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms within the promoter or other regulatory sequences of cytokine genes were evaluated and compared between an Iranian population and populations of different ethnic/geographical background. In 40 healthy Iranian subjects, cytokine typing was performed by polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific primers assay. Allele frequencies were calculated and compared with those of other populations.
