Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease characterized by T-cell activation and subsequent granuloma formation at the site of involvement. Genetic susceptibility is a key factor in the pathogenesis of this disease, and genes involved in T-cell regulation are potential candidates. Cytotoxic T...
