  • Title: Haptoglobin groups and rheumatoid arthritis.
    Author: Dahlqvist SR, Fröhlander N.
    Journal: Hum Hered; 1985; 35(4):207-11. PubMed ID: 4029960.
    Abstract:
    Haptoglobin types were determined in 200 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) subdivided according to sex and familial occurrence of polyarthritis. A highly significant excess of the Hp2 gene was found among patients with a family history of polyarthritis, more pronounced among males. The possible association between Hp2 and predisposition for increased immune reactivity is discussed.
