Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate BANK1 gene variation, and its association with autoimmune thyroid disease and clinical features. METHOD: We genotyped 3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs10516487, rs3733197 and rs4522865 of BANK1 gene in 667 patients with autoimmune thyroid diseases (417 with Graves' disease and 250 with Hashimoto's thyroiditis) and 301 healthy controls. The Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption...
