IRF7 Gene Variations Confer Susceptibility to Autoimmune Thyroid Diseases and Graves’ Ophthalmopathy
The objective of this study was to investigate whether IRF7 polymorphisms are associated with autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs). We selected three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IRF7, namely, rs1061501, rs1131665, and rs1061502 for genotyping using PCR-based ligase detection reaction (L...
