Abstract
This study provides the first evidence for the association of G894T, -786T/C variants with COPD risk among Tunisians. The -786T/C variation correlates with enhanced airflow limitation. This finding could be related to altered levels of nitric oxide and enhanced lipid peroxides among patients carrying the -786CC genotype.
