Association of interleukin-10 gene promoter polymorphism in children with atopic dermatitis

J Pediatr. 2007 Jan;150(1):106-8. doi: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2006.08.065.

Abstract

The present study evaluated the possible role of interleukin (IL)-10 promoter polymorphisms in children with atopic dermatitis (AD). IL-10 promoter polymorphisms are associated with the phenotype of AD in children.
