Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in pre‑microRNA (miRNA) may alter miRNA expression levels or processing and contribute to susceptibility in a wide range of diseases. The present study aimed to evaluate the possible association between rs2910164 and rs3746444 of the pre-miRNA (hsa-mir-146a and hsa-mir-499) polymorphisms and susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in an Iranian population. This case-control...
