Analysis of Associations of Human BAFF Gene Polymorphisms with Autoimmune Thyroid Diseases.
BACKGROUND:The B-lymphocyte-activating factor (BAFF) is associated with B-cell functions, and gene polymorphisms of the BAFF have been linked to autoimmune diseases (AIDs). In this study, we explored possible associations of two BAFF single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs1041569 and rs2893321, w...
