We investigated the possibility that single nucleotide polymorphisms of the genes encoding TNF-alpha (-863C/A, -308G/A), LT-alpha (252G/A), and IL-10 (-1082G/A, -819C/T, and -592C/A) are associated with the incidence of restenosis, death, or myocardial infarction (MI) after coronary stenting.
Haplotyping analysis revealed a significant overrepresentation of an rs1799724-T/rs1800629-G haplotype in AD (P=0.012; OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.11-2.29), although to a lesser degree than rs1799724-T alone.
The emerging data are quite conflicting and do not provide definitive evidence for a role of these gene variants in the pathogenesis of IHD; a possible exception is the G252A and polymorphism in the TNF-beta gene (also known as lymphotoxin-alpha) which, in a comprehensive genome-scan linkage analysis of unrelated Japanese, but not in a smaller German population, was linked to myocardial infarction.

We evaluated the association between a G-308A polymorphism (rs1800629) at the TNFA locus and osteoporosis phenotypes in 4306 older women participating in the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures.

Initially, association with T1D was seen for LT-alpha A1069G (intron A, p=0.011, rs909253) and TNF G(-308)A (p<1x10(-5), rs1800629), but no association was observed for TNF G(-238)A (rs361525).

Allelic discrimination screening obtained statistically significant associations for the MUC2-V116M (P = 0.003) polymorphism with CD and for MUC4-A585S (P = 0.025), as well as MUC13-R502S (P = 0.0003) with UC.

The results showed that the genotype frequencies of 804C/A in exon 3 and 252A/G in intron 1 of the LTA gene were not significantly different among patients with NDR, NPDR, and PDR.
Relationship between polymorphisms 804C/A and 252A/G of lymphotoxin-alpha gene and -308G/A of tumor necrosis factor alpha gene and diabetic retinopathy in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
In conclusion, the present study showed no association between polymorphisms 804C/A and 252A/G of the LTA gene and -302A/G of the TNF-alpha gene and DR in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients.
Two common single nucleotide polymorphisms in immunoregulatory genes (TNF G308A, rs1800629 and IL10 T3575A, rs1800890) have been recently reported as risk factors for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in a large pooled analysis.
Data from 5,269 cases and 4,982 controls suggested that the rs361525 A allele, located in the TNF promoter region, was associated with a modest increase in breast cancer risk.

We examined a possible association of three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) promoter -1031T>C (rs1799964), -863C>A (rs1800630), and -857C>T (rs1799724) with severe malaria in 466 adult patients having Plasmodium falciparum malaria in northwest Thailand.
