Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The purpose of this study was to explore the role of TNF-like ligand 1A (TL1A) gene (TNFST15) polymorphisms (rs3810936, rs7848647, and rs6478109) in the generation of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing were used to conduct the genotyping of TNFSF15 polymorphisms in 113 AS patients and 120 healthy persons as the case and control groups. The frequencies...
