Association between interleukin 17A polymorphisms and susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis in a Chinese population.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have revealed an association between interleukin 17A (IL17A) polymorphisms and the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Japanese and Caucasian patients. We hypothesized that IL17A polymorphisms might also affect RA susceptibility in the Chinese population. METHODS We studied IL17A rs2275913 G/A, rs3819024 A/G, rs3819025 G/A, rs4711998 A/G, rs8193036 C/T and r...
متن کاملAssociation study of polymorphisms between the Radixin gene and rheumatoid arthritis in a Korean population.
Radixin (RDX) is part of the ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM) protein family. It functions as a membrane-cytoskeletal linker in actin-rich cell surface structures and is thought to be essential for cortical cytoskeleton organization, cell motility, adhesion, and proliferation. An increase in phosphorylated ERM in fibroblast-like synoviocytes contributes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovial hyperplas...
متن کاملMeta-analysis demonstrates association between TLR polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis.
We investigated whether Toll-like receptor (TLR) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis and whether they influence clinical characteristics of rheumatoid arthritis. Studies were considered relevant for our meta-analysis if at least two comparisons of an issue were available. Eleven studies with 2078 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and 2581 controls were included, e...
متن کاملLack of association between interleukin-18 polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis.
OBJECTIVE To assess the association of the polymorphisms of the interleukin-18 (IL-18) gene with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and with risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). METHODS This sample comprised 97 patients with RA and 151 healthy controls. In the patients, risk factors for CVD were analyzed, such as cholesterol levels, arterial hypertension, smoking habit, C-reactive protein (...
متن کاملAssociation of STAT4 with susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus in the Japanese population.
OBJECTIVE STAT4 encodes a transcriptional factor that transmits signals induced by several key cytokines, and it might be a key molecule in the development of autoimmune diseases. Recently, a STAT4 haplotype was reported to be associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Caucasian populations. This was replicated in a Korean RA population. Interestingly, t...
