| Description | The aim of this study was to test the genetic association between the MCP-1 -2518A/G and the CCR2 V64I polymorphisms and asthma/allergy in the Czech population. Our study supports the idea that MCP-1 but not CCR2 gene variant may participate in the pathogenesis of particular allergic phenotypes at least in the Czech population. |
