The aim of this study was to determine the rate of polymorphisms of IFN-γ +874 and IL-10 -1082 in the normal population.  Materials & Methods: 109 normal individuals were included in the study and genomic description was carried out using ASO-PCR method. Results: Allelic frequency of alleles A and T for IFN-γ +874 were 50.92% and 49.08% respectively, and the highest genotype frequency was for the genotype A/T (54.13%). Allelic frequency of A and G for IL-10 -1082 also were 50.92% and 49.08% respectively, and genotype A/G had the highest rate among different genotypes of IL-10 -1082 (96.33%). Conclusion: The alleles A and T of IFN-γ gene (+874) were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, while it was not the case for A and G alleles of IL-10 gene (-1082). Keywords: Polymorphism, Interferon-γ +874, Interleukin-10 -1082   Address: Department of Genetics, Motahhari Hospital, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran Tel: (+98 441) 2240166    Email: isaabdirad@umsu.ac.ir  Source: UMJ 2010: 20(4): 338 ISSN: 1027-3727   [1] Associate Professor of Medical Genetics, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran (Corresponding Author)  [2] Instructor of Genetics, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran  [3] Associate Professor of Genetics, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran  [4] General Practitioner, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran SP - 307 EP - 312 AU - I Abdirad, AU - M Bagheri, AU - MD Omrani, AU - H Norouzi Pakzad, AD - KW - Polymorphism KW - Interferon-γ +874 KW - Interleukin-10 -1082 UR - http://umj.umsu.ac.ir/article-1-561-en.html ER -
