| Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to investigate risk factors associated with non-response to infliximab treatment for Behcet’s disease. We found some candidate proteins associated with non-response to infliximab treatment using wheat cell-free protein synthesis technology. In addition, we found some candidate genes for non-response to infliximab treatment by assessing the genotypic data from the genome-wide association study.
