COMPOSITION CONTAINING VPREB1 GENE FOR DIAGNOSING CHRONIC RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

摘要

PURPOSE: A composition containing VPREB1 gene for diagnosing chronic rheumatoid arthritis is provided to measure replication simply and exactly diagnose the disease or possibility of developing the disease.;CONSTITUTION: A composition for diagnosing chronic arthritis rheumatoid contains a probe or a primer having a sequence which is complementary to a nucleotide sequence of VPREB1 gene. VPREB1 has a nucleotide of sequence number 1 on chromosome 22q11.2. The primer contains primers of sequence numbers 2 and 3 or 6 and 7. The risk of developing Chronic arthritis rheumatoid is determined when the copy number of VPREB1 gene is under 2. A kit for diagnosing chronic arthritis rheumatoid contains the probe or primer.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2012
