Abstract excerpt

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a complex polygenic disease in which more than one genetic locus is likely to contribute to disease susceptibility and clinical expression. In the present study, we have analyzed for first time the implication of rs13277113 and rs2736340 variants from the C8orf13-BLK gene region in the susceptibility to GCA. A total of 220 biopsy-proven GCA patients and 486 matched controls were...
