Association of the CCR5 gene with juvenile idiopathic arthritis [PDF]
The CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) has been shown to be important in the recruitment of T-helper cells to the synovium, where they accumulate, drive the inflammatory process and the consequent synovitis and joint destruction.

Association of the IL-10 gene family locus on chromosome 1 with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) [PDF]
The cytokine IL-10 and its family members have been implicated in autoimmune diseases and we have previously reported that genetic variants in IL-10 were associated with a rare group of diseases called juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The aim of this
