Abstract excerpt
The objective of the study was to investigate the association of caspase activating and recruitment domain 8 (CARD8) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) polymorphisms with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Tunisian and French populations. CARD8 (c.30T>A, rs2043211) and NLRP3 (c.2113C>A, rs35829419) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were...
