Association of SEEK1 and psoriatic arthritis in two distinct Canadian populations

Methods: 103 patients with PsA and 105 ethnically matched controls from Newfoundland and 202 patients with PsA and 100 controls from Ontario were studied. Patients and controls were genotyped for SNP +39604 of SEEK1 by time of flight mass spectrometry, using the Sequenom platform. Genomic DNA was am...

Description
Summary:Methods: 103 patients with PsA and 105 ethnically matched controls from Newfoundland and 202 patients with PsA and 100 controls from Ontario were studied. Patients and controls were genotyped for SNP +39604 of SEEK1 by time of flight mass spectrometry, using the Sequenom platform. Genomic DNA was amplified by the Dynal RELI SSO HLA- Cw* typing kit for HLA-C typing.
