Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To see the role of IL-1β gene polymorphisms to disease susceptibility in Indian SLE patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This case-control study included 200 SLE patients and 201 controls. Serum levels of IL-1β and anti-C1q antibodies were measured by multiplex immunoassay and ELISA respectively. Genotyping of SNPs in IL-1β (-511C/T and +3954C/T) were performed by PCR-RFLP method. Autoantibody profile was...
