Differentially methylated DNA regions in monozygotic twin pairs discordant for rheumatoid arthritis.An epigenome - wide study.
Objectives: In an explorative epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) to search for gene independent, differentially methylated DNA positions (DMPs) and regions (DMRs) associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by studying monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs discordant for rheumatoid arthritis.Methods: Genom...
