Description The aim of our study was to investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms at positions -174G/C (rs1800795), -572G/C (rs1800796) and -597G/A (rs1800797), and their combinations (haplotypes) in patients with CP, type 1 DM (T1DM) and type 2 DM (T2DM) in comparison with healthy controls. Our results indicate that different IL-6 promoter haplotypes can affect the risk for CP and DM development. However, the individual IL-6 gene promoter polymorphisms do not act independently and may affect each other.
