Genome wide identification of new genes and pathways in patients with both autoimmune thyroiditis and type 1 diabetes
2015
Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) and Type 1 diabetes (T1D) frequently occur in the same individual pointing to a strong shared genetic susceptibility. Indeed, the co-occurrence of T1D and AITD in the same individual is classified as a variant of the autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 3 (designated APS3v). Our aim was to identify new genes and mechanisms causing the co-occurrence of T1D + AITD (APS3v) in the same individual using a genome-wide approach. For our discovery set we analyzed 346 Caucasian APS3v patients and 727 gender and ethnicity matched healthy controls. Genotyping was performed using the Illumina Human660W-Quad.v1. The replication set included 185 APS3v patients and 340…
The PTPN22gain-of-function+1858T(+) genotypes correlate with low IL-2 expression in thymomas and predispose to myasthenia gravis
2009
Protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) inhibits T-cell activation and interleukin-2 (IL-2) production. The PTPN22(gain-of-function)+1858T(+) genotypes predispose to multiple autoimmune diseases, including early-onset (non-thymomatous) myasthenia gravis (MG). The disease association and the requirement of IL-2/IL-2 receptor signaling for intrathymic, negative T-cell selection have suggested that these genotypes may weaken T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling and impair the deletion of autoreactive T cells. Evidence for this hypothesis is missing. Thymoma-associated MG, which depends on intratumorous generation and export of mature autoreactive CD4(+) T cells, is a model of au…
PTPN22 and CTLA-4 Polymorphisms Are Associated With Polyglandular Autoimmunity
2017
Context Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of various genes increase susceptibility to monoglandular autoimmunity. Data on autoimmune polyglandular syndromes (APSs) are scarce. Objective Evaluate potential associations of eight SNPs with APSs. Setting Academic referral endocrine clinic. Patients A total of 543 patients with APS and monoglandular autoimmunity and controls. Intervention The SNP protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22) rs2476601 (+1858); cytotoxic T-lymphocyte‒associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) rs3087243 (CT60) and rs231775 (AG49); vitamin D receptor (VDR) rs1544410 (Bsm I), rs7975232 (Apa I), rs731236 (Taq I); tumor necrosis factor α rs1800630 (-863); and inte…
Functional polymorphisms in SOCS1 and PTPN22 genes correlate with the response to imatinib treatment in newly diagnosed chronic-phase chronic myeloid…
2011
a b s t r a c t The function of the natural modulators of BCR-ABL-induced signaling pathways could influence the results to imatinib treatment. We assessed the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on genes of the phosphatase family and the suppressors of cytokine signaling and the response to imatinib in 105 patients newly diagnosed with chronic-phase CML. SNPs in SOCS1 (rs243327) and PTPN22 (rs2476601) genes correlated with the risk of primary resistance to imatinib. A high-risk Sokal score, the T allele in PTPN22 SNP, and each copy of the C allele in SOCS1 SNP were adverse prognostic factors for failure-free survival (FFS). Based on such parameters, three risk groups…
