Abstract excerpt
Common complex polygenic diseases as autoimmune diseases have not been completely understood on a molecular level. While many genes are known to be involved in the pathways responsible for the phenotype, explicit causes for the susceptibility of the disease remain to be elucidated. The susceptibility to disease is thought to be the result of genetic epistatic interactions between common polymorphic genes. This...
