This study revealed the presence of an association between IL-4 -590 TT genotype and T alleles with increased AIH risk in pediatric patients, also assess its severity as they were detected with Child Plugh scores B and C.
This study identified the IL4 C allele and CC genotype susceptibility gene in AIH, which will provide better insights into the mechanisms of AIH and potential therapeutic interventions.
Additionally, we typed 117 patients and 227 controls for functional polymorphisms of IL4, IL13, IL5, and IL4RA genes involved in IgE switching and eosinophil maturation that might contribute to overall genetic susceptibility to AIH.
