ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the role of the gene polymorphism of cytokine and cytokine receptors in the pathogenesis of type III prostatitis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We genotyped 24 outpatients diagnosed with type III prostatitis and 51 healthy volunteer controls for the single nucleotide polymorphisms of 13 cytokines and cytokine receptors at 22 sites by Sequence Specific Primer -PCR (SSP-PCR).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The patients exhibited significantly higher frequencies of the genotypes of IL-10-819 T/T (62.5%) and IL-10-592 A/A (62.5%), the haplotype of IL-10 (-1082/-819/-592) ATA (75.0%) and the diploid genotype of IL-10 (-1082/-819/-592) ATA/ATA (62.5%), than with the healthy controls (31.3% , 31.3%, 25.0% and 31.2%) (P < 0. 05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Our data suggested that anti-inflammation cytokine IL-10 gene polymorphisms were associated with the pathogenesis of type III prostatitis.</p>
