Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune condition influenced by a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. Specific genetic variations, particularly in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1 gene, have been strongly linked to RA susceptibility. HLA-DRB1 alleles, part of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II gene family, play a significant role in the imm...
