Abstract:: |
Objective To study biologic effect of high radon exposure in non-uranium miners by measurements of serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α and study on their gene polymorphism.Methods Serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α in the miners selected from a Yunnan-based copper mine were measured by ABC-ELISA. TNF-α (-308,G→A) genotypes were identified by RFLP-PCR, IL-2 (-330, T→G) genotypes by sequence analysis.Results Compared the miners with its control group, there were no statistical significance of the concentrations of serum IL-2 (F=0.71, P>0.05), IL-6 (F=1.09, P>0.05) and TNF-α (F=0.95, P>0.05). Frequencies of IL-2 (-330, T→G) genotypes (χ2=0.02, P>0.05) and TNF-α (-308, G→A) genotype (χ2=2.21, P>0.05) were shown no statistical significance too.Conclusions Compared with the control group, concentrations of serum IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α in miners working in the copper mine was lower, frequencies of genotypes of TNF-α (-308,A A) was higher in the miners. But all the differences were not statistical significant. |
