Genetics of rheumatoid arthritis contributes to biology and drug discovery

Yukinori Okada, +115 more
- 20 Feb 2014 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association study meta-analysis in a total of >100,000 subjects of European and Asian ancestries provides empirical evidence that the genetics of RA can provide important information for drug discovery, and sheds light on fundamental genes, pathways and cell types that contribute to RA pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integration of sequence data from a consanguineous family with genetic data from an outbred population identifies PLB1 as a candidate rheumatoid arthritis risk gene

Yukinori Okada, +53 more
- 10 Feb 2014 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that rare, low-frequency and common alleles at one gene locus, phospholipase B1 (PLB1), might contribute to risk of RA in a 4-generation consanguineous pedigree and also in unrelated individuals from the general population (European ancestry).
Journal ArticleDOI

TYK2 Protein-Coding Variants Protect against Rheumatoid Arthritis and Autoimmunity, with No Evidence of Major Pleiotropic Effects on Non-Autoimmune Complex Traits

Dorothée Diogo, +59 more
- 07 Apr 2015 - 
TL;DR: The role of TYK2 in the pathogenesis of RA, SLE and IBD is demonstrated, and supporting evidence forTYK2 as a promising drug target for the treatment of autoimmune diseases is provided.
