Abstract Knowledge regarding cervical cancer and human papillomavirus is expanding
rapidly. Inflammation subsequent to viral infection is a driving force that accelerates cancer …

The aim of the present work was to perform a meta-analysis to evaluate the association
between the interleukin 10 (IL-10)− 819C/T (rs1800871) polymorphism and cancer risk. A …

Most cases of cervical cancer are the result of infection with specific high-risk types of human
papillomavirus (HPV). Investigating the genetic basis of the host immune response …

Background Alterations in the host cellular immune response allow persistent infections with
High-Risk Human Papillomavirus (HR-HPV) and development of premalignant cervical …

OBJECTIVES: It has been hypothesized that inherited cytokine gene polymorphisms could
influence susceptibility to cervical cancer. This study evaluated the association between …

Small secretory proteins of immune cells are mostly Cytokines, which include chemokines,
interleukins, interferons, lymphokines and tumor necrosis factors but not hormones or growth …

Objectives: This study investigated the relationship between single-nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNPs) in cytokine genes and the susceptibility to Squamous Intraepithelial …

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a vital cytokine involved in inflammation, immunity,
and cellular organization. The TNFA-308G/A (rs1800629) and-238G/A (rs361525) …

Abstract Interleukin-10 (IL-10) has opposing effects as an anti-inflammatory (potentially
cancer-promoting) and antiangiogenic (potentially cancer-inhibiting) agent. The role of IL-10 …

Introduction: The production of cytokines, growth factors and adhesion molecules promotes
tumor progression and involves inflammation, angiogenesis and thrombosis, thus providing …
