Osteoprotegerin And MTHFR Gene Variations In Rheumatoid Arthritis: Association With Disease Susceptibility And Markers of Subclinical Atherosclerosis
2021-11-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objective: </h4> To explore whether the osteoprotegerin (OPG) rs2073618 gene variant and the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) rs1801131 and rs1801133 polymorphisms contribute to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility and RA related subclinical atherosclerosis. <h4>Methods: </h4>: 283 RA patients and 595 healthy controls (HC) were genotyped for OPG and MTHFR gene variants using PCR based assays. Cl...
