Excerpt
The dendritic cell immunoreceptor (DCIR) is an important member of C-type lectin superfamily, which has been shown evidence for susceptibility to arthritis in multiple animal models. The human DCIR polymorphisms have been shown a nominal association with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility, mainly with anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP) antibody -negative RA in Swedish population. We aimed to investigate the possible association of DCIR with RA susceptibility in Chinese Han population. …
