Although the etiology is unknown, immunologically mediated injury of the bile ducts triggered by as yet unidentified infectious agents is likely to play a critical role. Interleukin\u201018 (IL\u201018) is a proinflammatory cytokine that plays an important role in immune, infectious, and inflammatory diseases because of its induction of interferon\u2010gamma. In this study, we investigated whether polymorphisms of the <jats:italic>IL18<\/jats:italic> gene were associated with susceptibility to BA.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Patients and Methods:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Genomic DNA was extracted from whole\u2010blood samples of 50 Taiwanese children with BA and 1117 ethnically matched healthy controls.
