OBJECTIVES: The present study was undertaken to investigate the association of peptidyl-arginine-deiminase type IV gene (PADI4) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility, and to determine whether there is any impact of PADI4 polymorphisms on RA subsets or phenotypes in a large Chinese Han cohort. METHODS: Two PADI4 SNPs (rs2240340 and rs1748033) were genotyped in 1216...
