Abstract excerpt
T cell activation participates in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and the signaling molecule zeta-chain-associated protein kinase 70 kDa (ZAP-70) plays a crucial role in this process. Different mutations in the coding sequence of ZAP-70 are involved in a variety of immunological phenotypes, and recent evidence indicates that genetic variations within the 3' untranslated regions (UTR) of microRNA...
