GENE DIAGNOSIS OF DISEASES WHEREIN TNF- DOLLAR (g)a PROMOTERS PARTICIPATE

摘要

A method of gene diagnosis of diseases wherein TNF- alpha promoters participate, such as juvenile rheumatoic arthritis, chronic rheumatism or diabetes, by determining changes in the nucleotides at the -857, -863 and/or -1031 positions in the 5'-flanking region of a TNF- alpha gene.
