title: Genetics: a new interpretation of genetic studies in RA.
abstract: Understanding the genetics of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is complex, multiple genes and environmental factors are involved. A new multicentre genetic study summarizes the fundamental gene polymorphisms, pathways and cell types that are related to RA and, based on this analysis, proposes new targets for RA drug treatments.
