Methods A biallelic polymorphism at position -308 in the promoter region of TNF? was screened by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and NcoⅠ restricted enzyme. One hundred MG patients and one hundred healthy controls of Chinese were analysed. Results The allele TNF?2(A) was found significantly increased in all patients (0.32 in MG vs 0.21 in healthy controls, P0.05), showing a trend of increase in patients with an late onset of disease (0.34) compared to age matched healthy controls (0.10, P
