Resumen
Background: CD40 is a costimulatory molecule for B cells, and CD154 is a marker of CD4+ T cells activation. CD40 CD154 interaction promotes pro¿inflammatory cytokines secretion and autoantibodies production. PTPN22 gene encodes LYP protein, an inhibitor of T¿ and B¿cell activation. PTPN22 1858C>T polymorphism confers rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility. Hence, we evaluate the relationship between 1858C>T polymorphism with CD40 and CD154 expression and IFN secretion in RA patients.
