pubmed:abstractText |
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) plays a key role in the inflammatory response and pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD). TNF-alpha -308A polymorphism within the TNF-alpha gene promoter has been associated with enhanced TNF-alpha production in vitro. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of TNF-alpha promoter polymorphism at -308 on the susceptibility and phenotypic expression of fistulizing CD.
