Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between the polymorphism of large molecular weight proteasome (LMP) (LMP2-LMP7) and transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) (TAP1-TAP2) genes and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: Sixty RA patients and 102 ethnically...
