Assessment of osteoarthritis candidate genes in a meta-analysis of nine genome-wide association studies
(Wiley, 2013-12-10)[Abstract] Objective: To assess candidate genes for association with osteoarthritis (OA) and identify promising genetic factors and, secondarily, to assess the candidate gene approach in OA. Methods: A total of 199 ... -
Lack of replication of higher genetic risk load in men than in women with systemic lupus erythematosus
(BioMed Central, 2014-06-19)[Abstract] INTRODUCTION: We aimed to replicate a recent study which showed higher genetic risk load at 15 loci in men than in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This difference was very significant, and it was ... -
Lack of replication of interactions between polymorphisms in rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility: case–control study
(BioMed Central, 2014-09-27)[Abstract] INTRODUCTION: Approximately 100 loci have been definitively associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility. However, they explain only a fraction of RA heritability. Interactions between polymorphisms ... -

Variation at interleukin-6 receptor gene is associated to joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis
(BMC, 2015-09-04)[Abstract] Introduction. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) cytokine signaling is key in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) pathophysiology. Blocking IL-6 receptor (IL6R) has proven to be a highly effective treatment to prevent joint damage. ...
