Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a common autoimmune disease, and its pathogenesis remains unclear. The alteration of genetic materials is believed to play a role in SLE development. This study evaluated the association between the genetic variants of microRNA-21 (miR-21) and microRNA-155 (miR-155) and SLE. METHODS: The SNaPshot genotyping method was used to detect the genotypes of selected SNPs...
