The A-G polymorphism in exon 1 of the CTLA-4 gene is not associated with systemic lupus erythematosus.
OBJECTIVES: Factors contributing to the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remain largely unknown although are likely to include both environmental and genetic components. Studies on murine lupus have indicated a role for an antibody that blocks binding of cytotoxic T lymphocyte asso...
