Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that mainly affects the axial skeleton. Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPARA) is an intracellular transcription factor, which play a role in inflammation and osteoblasting activity. This study is designed to investigate the relationship of NG_012204.2:p.Ala268Val polymorphism of PPARA with axSpA risk and its role in disease development.
