Frequency of MCP-1 (rs1024611) and CCR2 (rs1799864) gene polymorphisms and its effect on gene expression level in patients with AgP

It can be concluded that MCP-1 and CCR2 polymorphisms are not associated with AgP in Turkish population. Although in AgP patients, there was AA genotype with MCP-1 mRNA expression it can be speculated that gene expression levels in peripheral blood may not reflect the cytokine/chemokine levels of local tissues.
