Abstract excerpt
The aim of this case-control study was to elucidate the role of some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ERAP1 (rs27524, rs27044, rs30187, rs2287987 and rs26653) and ERAP2 (rs2248374) genes in predicting the risk for psoriasis vulgaris in the Polish population. ERAP1, ERAP2 and HLA-C*06:02 typing was done using the TaqMan SNP genotyping assays. We confirmed a strong association of the HLA-C*06:02 allele...
