Reevaluation of the interaction between HLA-DRB1 shared epitope alleles, PTPN22, and smoking in determining susceptibility to autoantibody-positive and autoantibody-negative rheumatoid arthritis in a large UK Caucasian population
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 09/01/09
Morgan AW et al. – PTPN22 appears to be primarily associated with anticitrulline autoimmunity, whereas HLA–DRB1 SE is independently associated with RF. This study has confirmed associations of specific gene–environment combinations with a substantially increased risk of developing RA. Further work is needed to determine how these data can be used to inform clinical practice.
