To identify novel susceptibility loci for psoriasis, we undertook a genome-wide association scan of of 594,224 SNPs in 2,622 individuals with psoriasis and 5,667 controls.
This experiment was performed to analyze the contribution of NLRP3 inflammasome activation to age-related changes in hippocampal RNA. The hypothesis was that decreased inflammasome activation would reduce hippocampal inflammation. Results indicate that inflammasome knockout animals are protected fr...
