A&nbsp;genome-wide transcriptional profile study&nbsp;was conducted on 13 participants.&nbsp;The study found that&nbsp;3,151 gene signatures&nbsp;were&nbsp;linked to elevated risk of RA,&nbsp;and 2,437 signatures&nbsp;were&nbsp;linked with a lower risk.&nbsp;&ldquo;These studies may help us better understand and potentially identify which individuals classified as at-risk will go on to develop RA,&rdquo; explained EULAR&rsquo;s Robert&nbsp;Landew&eacute;&nbsp;in the&nbsp;LabRoots&nbsp;report. &ldquo;This is important because it will contribute to the development of early preventative strategies including potential pharmacological treatment to prevent the onset of disease.&rdquo;&nbsp;SOURCE:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.labroots.com/trending/immunology/11802/detecting-diagnosing-rheumatoid-arthritis-begins">LabRoots&nbsp;</a>
