Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the genes in the mouse background which predispose to the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). METHODS: T cell receptor beta transgenic (TCRbetaL) mice that have a T cell repertoire that predisposes to the development of CIA were used. Classic genetic studies and microsatellite gene mapping were done in (SWR-betaL x DBA/1)F2 hybrid mice. RESULTS: Besides TCRbeta, major...
