Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune multifactorial disease which has a great socio-economic impact in Morocco. The association of HLA genes with RA was studied in various ethnic groups but not in the Moroccan population. Our study focused on evaluating the distribution of class I and class II HLA genes among Moroccan patients presenting early signs of RA. METHODS: Forty nine patients diagnosed...
