The X-chromosome and susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis.
OBJECTIVE: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) affects 0.25-1.0% of the population, and its etiology is incompletely understood. Susceptibility to this highly familial disease (lambda(s) = 58) is primarily genetically determined. There is a significant sex bias in AS, and there are differences in recurrenc...
