Abstract

We previously reported a genome-wide association study (GWAS) identifying 14 susceptibility loci for generalized vitiligo. We report here a second GWAS (450 individuals with vitiligo (cases) and 3,182 controls), an independent replication study (1,440 cases and 1,316 controls) and a meta-analysis (3,187 cases and 6,723 controls) identifying 13 additional vitiligo-associated loci. These include OCA2-HERC2 (combined P = 3.80 × 10−8), MC1R (P = 1.82 × 10−13), a region near TYR (P = 1.57 × 10−13), IFIH1 (P = 4.91 × 10−15), CD80 (P = 3.78 × 10−10), CLNK (P = 1.56 × 10−8), BACH2 (P = 2.53 × 10−8), SLA (P = 1.58 × 10−8), CASP7 (P = 3.56 × 10−8), CD44 (P = 1.78 × 10−9), IKZF4 (P = 2.75 × 10−14), SH2B3 (P = 3.54 × 10−18) and TOB2 (P = 6.81 × 10−10). Most vitiligo susceptibility loci encode immunoregulatory proteins or melanocyte components that likely mediate immune targeting and the relationships among vitiligo, melanoma, and eye, skin and hair coloration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
