摘要
Can a patient's genotype provide insight into the mechanistic basis of autoimmune disease? A study integrating epigenetic data with finely mapped disease-associated variants sheds light on how noncoding variants might alter gene expression within specific immune cells, and hints at new possibilities for individualizing treatment of autoimmune rheumatic disorders.
