Method: The study group consists of 50 patients in 3rd stage and 100 patients in 4th stage osteoarthiritis and control group consists of 150 healthy individuals. FOXP3 genotypes were examined by PCR-RFLP method. Results: Our results show that there is no statisticially significant association between osteoarthiritis and FOXP3 -3499A/G polymorphism.… Show more
