Targeted Deep Re-Sequencing Implicates Rare and Low Frequency Coding Variants in IL23R, MEFV, TLR4, and NOD2 in Behçet’s Disease
Background/Purpose: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully identified common variants that contribute to Behçet’s disease (BD) susceptibility. However, associations due to rare and low-frequency variants…Abstract Number: 989 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Genome-Wide Analysis Reveals a Recessive Association of ERAP1 Variants with Behçet’s Disease and Epistasis Between ERAP1 and HLA-B*51
Background/Purpose: We recently performed a genome-wide association study in 1215 patients with Behçet’s disease (BD) and 1278 controls from Turkey and found disease-associated variants within…
