Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To investigate whether PDCD1 gene polymorphisms are functional, and their associations with T1D risk and related clinical characteristics. METHODS: A total of 3060 Chinese Han individuals (1019 T1D patients and 2041 healthy controls) were genotyped for 4 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the PDCD1 region (rs2227982, rs7421861, rs10204525, and rs6710479) and another most studied synonymous...
