Abstract excerpt
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IL-6 (-174G/C), microRNA146a (rs2910164C/G) and MALAT1 (rs619586A/G) and susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Egyptians.Methods: SNPs were genotyped in 101 RA patients and 104 controls. Expression levels were evaluated either by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for IL-6 or quantitative...
