Association between a single-nucleotide polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene and susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus in the Hainanese population of China.

Abstract excerpt

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene plays a significant role in regulating immune responses and inflammatory processes, thus impacting the susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Understanding how single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the ACE gene contribute to the genetic susceptibility to SLE is essential for comprehending the disease's aetiology. Therefore, exploring this...
