Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To explore the association of β-defensin gene copy number variations (CNVs) with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS: In this study, 405 unrelated Chinese Han patients with AS and 401 unrelated healthy controls were enrolled. The copy numbers of DEFB4 gene (2 fragments) were measured by AccuCopy™ methods. The association of DEFB4 gene CNVs with AS susceptibility was analyzed by chi-square and...
