Genetic analysis of collagen-induced arthritis in rats: a polygenic model for rheumatoid arthritis predicts a common framework of cross-species inflammatory/autoimmune disease lociM M Griffiths
Salt Lake City Veterans Affairs Salt Lake City Health Care System, Department of Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, USA
Immunol Rev 184:172-83. 2001..Continued dissection of the genetic underpinnings of rat arthritis models should provide candidate genes for investigation in human patients and lead to a clearer understanding of the complex genetics of RA...
Mapping autoimmunity genesM M Griffiths
Veteran Affairs Medical Center, Department of Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, UI, USA
Curr Opin Immunol 11:689-700. 1999..Candidate genes are being identified. Polymorphic alleles associated with these chromosomal segments may represent predisposing genetic elements common to a number of human diseases with very different clinical presentations...
Identification of four new quantitative trait loci regulating arthritis severity and one new quantitative trait locus regulating autoantibody production in rats with collagen-induced arthritisM M Griffiths
Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, and University of Utah, Salt Lake City, USA
Arthritis Rheum 43:1278-89. 2000..Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) is a polygenic model of experimentally induced autoimmunity and chronic joint inflammation. This study maps genetic loci that regulate CIA susceptibility in DA/Bkl (DA) and BN/SsNHsd (BN) rats...
Identification of a new non-major histocompatibility complex genetic locus on chromosome 2 that controls disease severity in collagen-induced arthritis in ratsP S Gulko
National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, NIH, Bethesda, Maryland 20892, USA

Hum Mol Genet 9:2241-50. 2000..Our data support the view that multiple autoimmune diseases may share genetic risk factors, and suggest that many of these loci are gender influenced...
An integrated genetic linkage map with 1,137 markers constructed from five F2 crosses of autoimmune disease-prone and -resistant inbred rat strainsS V Dracheva
The Inflammatory Joint Diseases Section, National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, Bethesda, Maryland 20892, USA
Genomics 63:202-26. 2000..Two hundred forty genes are incorporated in the map. This integrated map should allow comparison of rat genetic maps from different groups and thereby facilitate genetic studies of rat autoimmune and related disease models...
