Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-Cw0303, HLA-Cw04, and HLA-Cw07 polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility of rheumatoid arthritis in Chinese Han patients from Southern China
Objective(s): This study aimed to investigate the association between human leukocyte antigen Cw (HLA-Cw) polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Chinese Han patients in the Jiangsu area (Southern China).Materials and Methods: Polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers were used to detect HLA-Cw01–08 of 201 RA patients an...
متن کاملCutaneous manifestations in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disease with different extra-articular manifestations. Among those extra-articular manifestations, there are significant cutaneous manifestations which may result in first admission to a dermatologist. In this article some specific and non-specific skin lesions of RA such as rheumatoid nodules, exacerbated nodules, rheumatoid vascu...
متن کاملHearing status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Background: Previous studies showed that one of the complications of rheumatoid arthritis disease was auditory disorder. The goal of the present study was to compare the auditory status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy individuals. Methods: In the present case-control study, 30 normal persons and 60 persons with rheumatoid arthritis with mean age of 46.72 and standard deviatio...
متن کاملGαq gene promoter polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis in the Han Chinese population are not associated.
Mice that lose Gαq from their immune system can spontaneously develop inflammatory arthritis. Gαq expression in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients is significantly decreased in comparison to that in healthy individuals, and reduced Gαq expression is closely correlated with RA disease activity. These indicate that Gαq plays critical roles in the pathogenesis o...
متن کاملOsteoprotegerin Gene (OPG) Polymorphisms Associated with Peri-Implantitis Susceptibility in a Chinese Han Population
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the association between T950C (rs2073617) and G1181C (rs2073618) polymorphisms of the osteoprotegerin gene (OPG) and the susceptibility of peri-implantitis in the Chinese Han population. MATERIAL AND METHODS 110 patients with peri-implantitis and 116 healthy persons from the Chinese Han population were included in this study using a case-cont...
