Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To replicate the possible genetic association between ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and TNFRSF1A. METHODS: TNFRSF1A was re-sequenced in 48 individuals with AS to identify novel polymorphisms. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TNFRSF1A and 5 SNPs in the neighbouring gene SCNN1A were genotyped in 1604 UK Caucasian individuals with AS and 1019 matched controls. An extended study was...
