Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: SSc is characterized by immune dysfunction and microvascular involvement. A different genetic background may determine a different polymorphic allele frequency between different populations, and data from literature reported conflicting results about the role of genetic components in predisposing to the disease. We carried out this study in order to compare the ACE I/D polymorphism genotype...
