Correlation between CTLA-4 and CD40 gene polymorphisms and their interaction in graves’ disease in a Chinese Han population

Abstract Background Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotype and SNP-SNP interactions of CTLA-4 and CD40 genes, with susceptibility to Graves’ disease (GD), were explored in a Chinese Han population. Methods SNP were genotyped by high resolution melting (HRM). Use the method of Pearson χ2 test...
