Interleukin19 gene polymorphism and its serum level in acne vulgaris patients.

Numerous cytokines are involved in acne vulgaris pathogenesis, though few studies correlate interleukin IL-19 to acne vulgaris. So this study aimed to assess the IL-19 (rs 2243191) gene polymorphism and its serum level in acne vulgaris. This case-control study involved 90 acne vulgaris cases and 90 age- and sex-matched controls.
