Abstract excerpt
To explore the association of LEP and leptin receptor (LEPR) gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a Chinese population. Four LEP SNPs (rs11761556, rs12706832, rs2071045 and rs2167270) and nine LEPR SNPs (rs10749754, , , , , , , and ) were genotyped in a cohort of 633...
