Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Several genome-wide association studies have revealed a genetic background with respect to susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although several individual case-control studies have evaluated the role of protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (PTPN22) gene rs2476601 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in conferring a risk for RA, the results have been conflicting. Hence, this...
