Abstract excerpt
The low affinity Fcγ receptor, FcγRIIA, harbors a common missense mutation, rs1801274 (G>A, Arg131His) that modifies binding affinity to human IgG2 and mouse IgG1 antibodies and is associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease. Despite the important role of the Arg131His variant, little is understood about heterozygous genotype effects on global gene expression and cytokine production during an...
