Disease-Associated Variants in Autoimmune Thyroid Diseases can be Detected Through Genome-Wide Epigeomic Screening

A new study presented at the American Thyroid Association (ATA) meet in Quebec City, Canada suggests that disease-associated variants and novel genetic-epigenetic interactions in autoimmune thyroid diseases can be more easily identified through genome wide epigeomic screening. Since cytokines are key mediators of tissue inflammation and infiltration, a team of researchers from Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City tested the hypothesis that inflammatory ...
