Common MIR146A Polymorphisms in Chinese Ankylosing Spondylitis Subjects and Controls
نویسندگان
چکیده
Common polymorphisms of microRNA gene MIR146A were reported as associated with different autoimmune diseases, include systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriatic arthritis, asthma and ankylosing spondylitis. In this study we investigated MIR146A SNPs in Chinese people with ankylosing spondylitis. Three common SNPs: rs2910164, rs2431697 and rs57095329 were selected and genotyped in 611 patients and 617 controls. We found no association between these SNPs and ankylosing spondylitis in our samples.

Distribution of HLA-B*27 Alleles in Pa-tients with Ankylosing Spondylitis in Iran
Background: HLA-B*27 is strongly associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). It represents a family of alleles that differ among ethnic groups. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of HLA-B*27 alleles in AS patients and healthy controls in Isfahan (Iran). Methods: Sixty AS patients and 430 healthy blood donors were selected. All subjects were HLA-B*27 positive by ...

Susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is largely genetically determined. JARID1A, JMY and PTGER4 have recently been found to be associated with AS in patients of western European descent. We aim to examine the influence of JARID1A, JMY, and PTGER4 polymorphisms on the susceptibility to and the severity of ankylosing spondylitis in Chinese ethnic majority Han population. This work can le...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the association of the polymorphisms and haplotypes in the PD-1 and PD-1 ligand genes with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in a Chinese population. METHODS A total of 196 Chinese patients with ankylosing spondylitis and 180 age- and sex-matched controls of the same ethnic origin were included in the study. The polymorphisms in PD-1 and PD-1 ligand genes were genotyped us...
متن کاملPolymorphisms in the Osteopontin Are Associated with Susceptibility to Ankylosing Spondylitis in a Han Chinese Population
The aim of this study was to investigate whether osteopontin (OPN) variants are associated with susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in a Chinese population. Polymorphisms at the 9175th position in exon 7 of OPN and rs17524488 were genotyped using direct sequencing in 186 unrelated AS patients and 188 ethnically matched healthy controls. Serum concentration of OPN was measured by enzym...
