Abstract excerpt
AIM: Immune-related lncRNA may influence osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility. We conducted this study to assess whether the genetic variants in several immune-related lncRNA influence OA susceptibility. METHODS: The current research genotyped four SNPs in 306 OA patients and 316 healthy controls, including PRNCR1 rs7463708, PRNCR1 rs1456315, PRNCR1 rs16901946 and KIF13B1 rs643472, to investigate their associations...
