Abstract excerpt
Maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) is implicated in autoimmunity, but its role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is unclear. This study aimed to investigate gene polymorphisms, expression patterns, and functional mechanisms of MEG3 in RA pathogenesis and its clinical associations. MEG3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped in 551 RA patients and 595 controls, finding no association with RA...
