Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether polymorphism of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes affects susceptibility to or severity of primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS). METHODS: Ig gene kappa (KM) and gamma (GM) polymorphisms were analyzed by a polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) based method in 65 Finnish Caucasian patients with pSS and in 66 healthy controls matched for sex, ethnic...
