A Case of Lipomembranous Panniculitis Associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Lipomembranous panniculitis is a special type of fat necrosis which has been associated with several clinical conditions, mainly chronic venous insufficiency and connective tissue disorders such as lupus profundus, morphea, systemic sclerosis, and dermatomyositis .We report a 50 yearold woman with known rheumatoid arthritis who presented with a painful indurated erythematous plaque on her right...
متن کاملCD226 rs763361 (Gly307Ser) Polymorphism Is Associated with Susceptibility to Rheumatoid Arthritis in Zahedan, Southeast Iran
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease with many genetic factors predisposing to disease susceptibility. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of CD226 rs727088 and rs763361 polymorphisms and susceptibility to RA in a sample of the Iranian population. Methods: This case-control study was carried out on 100 patients with RA and 104 healthy su...
متن کاملFunctional Analysis of a Complement Polymorphism (rs17611) Associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Complement is implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); elevated levels of complement activation products have been measured in plasma, synovial fluid, and synovial tissues of patients. Complement polymorphisms are associated with RA in genome-wide association studies. Coding-region polymorphisms may directly impact protein activity; indeed, we have shown that complement poly...
متن کاملAssociation of PTPN22 rs2476601 Polymorphism with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Celiac Disease in Khuzestan Province, Southwestern Iran
Background: Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2476601 within protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 gene (PTPN22) has been shown to be a risk factor for different autoimmune diseases. This study explored the association of 1858 C/T SNP with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and celiac disease (CD) in a region covering south-west of Iran. Methods: Totally, 52 patients with CD, 120 patien...
متن کاملthe itgav-rs3911238 polymorphism is associated with disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis.
evidences indicate that angiogenesis is an important process in the development of destructive synovial tissue in rheumatoid arthritis (ra). recently, it has been shown that the polymorphism of the integrin-αv subunit encoded by the itgav gene plays a role in angiogenesis and is considered as ra susceptibility loci. this study investigated association of four single nucleotide polymorphisms ...
