Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association scan in women with systemic lupus erythematosus identifies susceptibility variants in ITGAM, PXK, KIAA1542 and other loci.

TL;DR: The results show that numerous genes, some with known immune-related functions, predispose to SLE, and evidence of association with replication is found at FCGR2A, PTPN22 and STAT4, regions previously associated with SLE and other autoimmune diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

End-stage renal disease in African Americans with lupus nephritis is associated with APOL1.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that the apolipoprotein L1 gene (APOL1) nephropathy risk alleles G1/G2, common in African Americans and rare in European Americans, contribute to the ethnic disparity in risk of lupus nephritis is investigated.

TL;DR: Assessment of SNPs covering the CFH-CFHRs region suggested that the CFHR3-1Δ deletion within the SLE-associated block, but not the previously described exonic SNPs of CFH, might contribute to the development of SLE in EA, AA, and AS, providing new insights into the role of complement regulators.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genome scan for diabetic nephropathy in African Americans.

TL;DR: This first genome scan of diabetic nephropathy in African Americans reveals evidence for susceptibility loci on chromosomes 3q, 7p, and 18q, which may represent a type 2 diabetes susceptibility locus.
