Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of microsatellites and single-nucleotide promoter polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene for the cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) with susceptibility to and outcome of reactive arthritis (ReA). METHODS: From genomic DNA, IL-10 microsatellites G and R and IL-10 p...
