ObjectivesRheumatoid arthritis (RA) exhibits clinical and biological heterogeneity, with synovial tissue stratified into histological pathotypes: lympho-myeloid, diffuse-myeloid, and pauci-immune fibroid. Although GWAS have uncovered RA risk loci, how genetic risk relates to synovial immunopathology remains unclear. To better understand how genetic predisposition may shape divergent early disease mechanisms, we characterised the expression patterns of GWAS-identified RA susceptibility genes and ...
