These different MHC associations in different clinical disease subsets show that rheumatoid disease is immunogenetically heterogeneous and suggest that MHC genes outside the DRB1 locus may also influence susceptibility or modify expression of the rheumatoid disease process.

Analysis of a microsatellite marker adjacent to the transcription element alpha (TEA) in the T cell receptor alpha delta complex indicates that in the cohort carrying neither the DRB1*04 nor the DRB1*01 allele the relative risk to acquire rheumatoid arthritis is increased (> 13) or decreased (< 0.07), depending on the inherited microsatellite allele adjacent to the TEA locus.
