Abstract excerpt
Chemokines (CXCL) and their receptors play important roles in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of this study was to examine the associations between polymorphisms in the CXCL9 (rs3733236 G>A) and CXCL10 (rs8878 A>G) genes and RA. We examined 422 RA patients and 338 subjects as a control group. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CXCL9 (rs3733236 G>A) and CXCL10 (rs8878 A>G) genes...
