Association between CD266 polymorphism and soluble levels in rheumatoid arthritis: Relationship with clinical activity.

CONCLUSION: The CD226 T allele may be susceptibility risk factors for the development of RA and the higher serum level of CD226 may be involved in the pathogenesis of RA in Egyptian patients. The serum level of CD226 and not CD226 genotypes could be considered as an independent risk factor for the prediction of RA within healthy individuals and also for RA disease activity.
