['The present study evaluated the frequency of the polymorphism of Interleukin-6 (IL6) in women positive for E6/E7 Human Papillomavirus (HPV) (n=152) and women negative for HPV (n=238), 390 women in total. Material for analysis was obtained at the Federal University of São Paulo. Interleukin-6 polymorphism was detected by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and analyzed in 3% agarose gel.', 'No significant associations between the frequency of the polymorphism of IL6 in patients expressing E6 and E7 with HPV-positive and -negative reactions were found. There was no statistically significant difference between the case and control group for genotype distribution (p=0.280).'] Is polymorphism of Interleukin-6 associated with the presence or absence of high HPV E6/E7?
