Association analysis of the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and autoimmune regulator-1 (AIRE-1) genes in sporadic autoimmune Addison's disease.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined polymorphisms at two non-major histocompatibility complex candidate susceptibility loci in sporadic (non-APS1) AAD: the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene and the autoimmune regulator (AIRE-1) gene DNA samples from AAD subjects (n = 90) and local controls (N = 144 for CTLA- 4; n = 576 for AIRE- 1) were analyzed for the CTLA 4A/G polymorphism in exon 1 of the CT
