Abstract excerpt
Objective: To study the association of the expression levels of long noncoding RNA Taurine-upregulated gene 1 (lncRNA TUG1) and TUG1 polymorphisms with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Materials and Methods: A total of 255 KOA patients and 255 controls from May 2017 to December 2019 were selected for the study. Sanger sequencing was conducted to detect the genotypes of the TUG1 rs5749201, rs7284767, and rs886471 loci...
