Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease with difficulty to diagnose. The association of natural resistance-associated macrophage protein-1 (NRAMP-1) gene polymorphisms with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the aim of this study. Methods: Two hundred individuals who were divided into two groups: RA patients group (100 Patients with RA) and control group: (100 apparently healthy subjects). NRAMP1 polymorphisms were determined by the polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR/RFLP) method, including D543N. Results: Rheumatoid arthritis patients demonstrated significant increase in C-reactive protein (CRP), Rheumatoid Factor Ab, Human cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) and Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide (anti-CCP) in comparison to normal. Clinical disease activity index (CDAI) and the radi.. View More»
