Allelic variants of IL1R1 gene associate with severe hand osteoarthritis

Allelic variants of IL1R1 gene associate with severe hand osteoarthritis

Background In search for genes predisposing to osteoarthritis (OA), several genome wide scans have provided evidence for linkage on 2q. In this study we targeted a 470 kb region on 2q11.2 presenting the locus with most evidence for linkage to severe OA of distal interphalangeal joints (DIP) in our g...
