Association of TERT and DSP Polymorphisms with Susceptibility to Myeloperoxidase-ANCA-Associated Vasculitis
Background/Purpose: Epidemiology of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is substantially different between East Asian and European populations. Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and MPO-ANCA positive AAV (MPO-AAV) are prevalent…Abstract Number: 948 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting

Behcet’s Disease Lies in the “B” Holder. New Associations in Disease Susceptibility and Manifestations
Background/Purpose: Behçet’s disease is a multisystem disease affecting young adults with variable vessel vasculitis as its underlying pathology. Previous studies in Behçet’s disease linked it…Abstract Number: 1013 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
HLA-Class II Associations with ANCA-Associated Vasculitis in the Japanese Population: Different Features from European Populations
Background/Purpose: HLA-class II region harbors the strongest genetic factors for ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV), and differences in the genetic background of HLA-class II may partly explain…Abstract Number: 1762 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting

Epigenetic and Expression Analysis of Ankylosing Spondylitis Association Loci Point to Key Cell Types Driving Disease
Background/Purpose: Susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is primarily genetic; thus far 113 susceptibility variants for AS have been identified. However, most of the AS associated…Abstract Number: 82 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
HLA-DPB1*04:01 Confers Risk for PR3-ANCA Positive ANCA-Associated Vasculitis (AAV), but Protects Against MPO-ANCA Positive AAV, in a Japanese Population
Background/Purpose Epidemiologic difference between European and Asian populations is observed in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) – associated vasculitis (AAV). Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is prevalent…Abstract Number: 167 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association Of Functional Polymorphisms In IRF2 With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus In a Japanese Population
