A Candidate Gene Approach Identifies IL33 as a Novel Genetic Risk Factor for GCA
Background/Purpose: IL-33, through binding to its receptor ST2 (suppression of tumorigenicity 2), encoded by the interleukin 1 receptor-like 1 (IL1RL1) gene, activates mast cells and…Abstract Number: 777 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Influence of the IL17A Locus in Giant Cell Arteritis Susceptibility
Background/Purpose: A recent study has showed that the number of Th17 lymphocytes is significantly increased in patients with GCA, resulting in an imbalance between Th17…
