Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase, nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22), is an archetypal non-HLA autoimmunity gene. It is one of the most prominent genetic contributors to type 1 diabetes mellitus outside the HLA region, and prevalence of its risk variants is subject to enormous geographic variability. Here, we address the genetic background of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus of Armenian descent. Armenia has a population that has been genetically isolated for 3000 years. We hypothesized that two PTPN22 polymorphisms, rs2476601 and rs1310182, are associated with type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons of Armenian descent. In this association study, we genotyped the allelic frequencies of two risk-associated PTPN22 variants in 96 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and 100 controls of Armenian descent. We subsequently examined the associations of PTPN22 variants with the manifestation of type 1 diabetes mellitus and its clinical characteristics. We found that the rs2476601 minor allele (c.1858T) frequency in the control population was very low (q = 0.015), and the trend toward increased frequency of c.1858CT heterozygotes among patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus was not significant (OR 3.34, 95% CI 0.88-12.75; χ2 test p > 0.05). The control population had a high frequency of the minor allele of rs1310182 (q = 0.375). The frequency of c.2054-852TC heterozygotes was significantly higher among the patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (OR 2.39, 95% CI 1.35-4.24; χ2 test p < 0.001), as was the frequency of the T allele (OR 4.82, 95% CI 2.38-9.76; χ2 test p < 0.001). The rs2476601 c.1858CT genotype and the T allele correlated negatively with the insulin dose needed three to six months after diagnosis. The rs1310182 c.2054-852CC genotype was positively associated with higher HbA1c at diagnosis and 12 months after diagnosis. We have provided the first information on diabetes-associated polymorphisms in PTPN22 in a genetically isolated Armenian population. We found only a limited contribution of the prototypic gain-of-function PTPN22 polymorphism rs2476601. In contrast, we found an unexpectedly close association of type 1 diabetes mellitus with rs1310182.

[PMID: 36900045 PMCID: PMC10001387 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13050899] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune exocrinopathy characterized by lymphocytic infiltration, glandular dysfunction and systemic manifestations. Lyp protein is a negative regulator of the T cell receptor encoded by the tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor-type 22 (PTPN22) gene. Multiple single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the PTPN22 gene have been associated with susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. This study aimed to investigate the association of PTPN22 SNPs rs2488457 (-1123 G>C), rs33996649 (+788 G>A), rs2476601 (+1858 C>T) with pSS susceptibility in Mexican mestizo subjects. METHODS One hundred fifty pSS patients and 180 healthy controls (HCs) were included. Genotypes of PTPN22 SNPs were identified by PCR-RFLP. PTPN22 expression was evaluated through RT-PCR analysis. Serum anti-SSA/Ro and anti-SSB/La levels were measured using an ELISA kit. RESULTS Allele and genotype frequencies for all SNPs studied were similar in both groups (p > 0.05). pSS patients showed 17-fold higher expression of PTNP22 than HCs, and mRNA levels correlated with SSDAI score (r2 = 0.499, p = 0.008) and levels of anti-SSA/Ro and anti-SSB/La autoantibodies (r2 = 0.200, p = 0.03 and r2 = 0.175, p = 0.04, respectively). Positive anti-SSA/Ro pSS patients expressed higher PTPN22 mRNA levels (p = 0.008), with high focus scores by histopathology (p = 0.02). Moreover, PTPN22 expression had high diagnostic accuracy in pSS patients, with an AUC = 0.985. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate that the PTPN22 SNPs rs2488457 (-1123 G>C), rs33996649 (+788 G>A) and rs2476601 (+1858 C>T) are not associated with the disease susceptibility in the western Mexican population. Additionally, PTPN22 expression may be helpful as a diagnostic biomarker in pSS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several genome-wide association studies have revealed a genetic background with respect to susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although several individual case-control studies have evaluated the role of protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (PTPN22) gene rs2476601 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in conferring a risk for RA, the results have been conflicting. Hence, this meta-analysis was aimed to provide a solution for this issue. METHODS To search for studies assessing the association between the PTPN22 gene rs2476601 SNP and the risk of RA, a systematic search was conducted in the main databases, including PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science, prior to December 2019. The odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated to assess the possibility of association risk. RESULTS The literature search identified 52 case-control studies. The pooled analysis detected significant positive association of rs2476601 in all genetic models, including dominant model (OR = 1.69, 95% CI = 1.55-1.84, P < 0.001), recessive model (OR = 2.50, 95% CI = 2.06-3.05, P < 0.001), allelic model (OR = 1.80, 95% CI = 1.60-2.2, P < 0.001), TT versus CC model (OR = 2.79, 95% CI = 2.28-3.41, P < 0.001) and CT versus CC model (OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.50-1.67, P < 0.001). Analyses based on population stratification indicated that rs2476601 SNP strongly increased the risk of RA in Caucasians and Africans under all genotype models. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis reports that the PTPN22 gene rs2476601 SNP increases RA risk, especially in Caucasians and Africans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) varies greatly among different ethnic groups, suggesting genetic susceptibility. The several genetic variants of protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22-1123G/C, rs2488457) have been widely examined. We systematically evaluated the association of PTPN22-1123 and RA risk by pooling the related studies conducted in different races. METHODS Literature was searched using PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Korean scientific database, Chinese medical databases, and the Indian medical database to identify eligible studies for determining the association of PTPN22-1123 and RA risk. The association was assessed in five genetic random effects models including the allelic (AG), recessive (RG), dominant (DG), homozygous (HMG), and heterozygous (HTG) genetic models. Subgroup analyses stratified by ethnicity (Asians and non-Asians) were assessed. RESULTS A total of 10 articles were selected that met the criteria including Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Subjects included 14 186 healthy controls and 5735 with RA. The AG, RG, DG, and HMG genetic models showed no heterogeneity, but the HTG model showed heterogeneity. AG and RG did not exhibit publication bias in any of the studies including Asian and non-Asian subgroups. The overall effect of PTPN22-1123 on RA risk in all genetic random models showed significant positive associations (AG: odds ratio [OR]: 1.24; CI: 1.08-1.42; P = 0.002; RG: OR: 1.35; CI: 1.15-1.59; P = 0.0003; DG: OR: 1.42; CI: 1.09-1.85; P = 0.009; HMG: OR: 1.69; CI: 1.22-2.34; P = 0.002). A significant association when pooling the studies was only revealed in non-Asians (P < 0.05), but no significant relationship was shown in Asians. CONCLUSIONS People with C allele in PTPN22-1123 increased the risk of RA only in non-Asians.

Abstract
The incidence of type-1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) has increased steadily in Kuwait during recent years and it is now considered amongst the high-incidence countries. An interaction between susceptibility genes, immune system mediators and environmental factors predispose susceptible individuals to T1DM. We have determined the prevalence of protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene functional variant (C1858T; R620W, rs2476601), HLA-DQ and DR alleles and three autoantibodies in Kuwaiti children with T1DM to evaluate their impact on genetic predisposition of the disease. This study included 253 Kuwaiti children with T1DM and 214 ethnically matched controls. The genotypes of PTPN22 gene functional variant C1858T (R620W; rs2476601) were detected by PCR-RFLP method and confirmed by DNA sequencing. HLA-DQ and DR alleles were determined by sequence-specific PCR. Three autoantibodies were detected in the T1DM patients using radio-immunoassays. A significant association was detected between the variant genotype of the PTPN22 gene (C1858T, rs2476601) and T1DM in Kuwaiti Arabs. HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 alleles showed a strong association with T1DM. In T1DM patients which carried the variant TT-genotype of the PTPN22 gene, 93% had at least one DQ2 allele and 60% carried either a DQ2 or a DQ8 allele. Amongst the DR alleles, the DR3-DRB5, DR3-3, DR3-4 and DR4-4 showed a strong association with T1DM. Majority of T1DM patients who carried homozygous variant (TT) genotype of the PTPN22 gene had either DR3-DRB5 or DRB3-DRB4 genotypes. In T1DM patients who co-inherited the high risk HLA DQ, DR alleles with the variant genotype of PTPN22 gene, the majority were positive for three autoantibodies. Our data demonstrate that the variant T-allele of the PTPN22 gene along with HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 alleles constitute significant determinants of genetic predisposition of T1DM in Kuwaiti children.

Abstract
Several protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (PTPN22) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been significantly related with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility. Nevertheless, its potential influence on PTPN22 expression in RA has not been completely elucidated. Furthermore, PTPN22 binds to C-Src tyrosine kinase (CSK) forming a key complex in autoimmunity. However, the information of CSK gene in RA is scarce. In this study, we analyzed the relative PTPN22 and CSK expression in peripheral blood from 89 RA patients and 43 controls to determine if the most relevant PTPN22 (rs2488457, rs2476601 and rs33996649) and CSK (rs34933034 and rs1378942) polymorphisms may influence on PTPN22 and CSK expression in RA. The association between PTPN22 and CSK expression in RA patients and their clinical characteristics was also evaluated. Our study shows for the first time a marked down-regulation of PTPN22 expression in RA patients carrying the risk alleles of PTPN22 rs2488457 and rs2476601 compared to controls (p = 0.004 and p = 0.007, respectively). Furthermore, CSK expression was significantly lower in RA patients than in controls (p < 0.0001). Interestingly, a reduced PTPN22 expression was disclosed in RA patients with ischemic heart disease (p = 0.009). The transcriptional suppression of this PTPN22/CSK complex may have a noteworthy clinical relevance in RA patients.

Abstract
Studies have shown that the genetic risk factors for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) differ substantially between Asian and Caucasian populations. Even among Asian populations, the genetic contributions of NLRP1, PTPN22 and PADI4 have been controversial. Consequently, we sought to address these separate findings and determine whether any of these proposed risk variants are associated with RA susceptibility, onset, DAS activity and erosion in a Singaporean Chinese cohort. We genotyped five SNPs within NLRP1 (rs878329 and rs6502867), PTPN22 (rs2488457 and rs6665194), and PADI4 (rs2240340) in 500 anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody-positive (ACPA) patients with RA and 500 healthy controls using TaqMan assays. The CC genotype of NLRP1 rs878329 and TT genotype of PADI4 rs2240340 were associated with RA susceptibility. The risk association of the T allele of PADI4 rs2240340 with RA was confirmed through a meta-analysis based on previous reports in Asian populations. The GG genotype of PTPN22 rs6665194 (-3508A>G) was associated with significantly reduced risk of RA. No significant association was found for NLRP1 rs6502867 T/C and PTPN22 rs2488457 G/C polymorphisms. None of the five SNPs was associated with RA's clinical features. This work supports the association of the T allele of PADI4 rs2240340 with RA in Asians. The roles of NLRP1 rs878329 G/C and PTPN22 rs6665194 A/G polymorphisms were demonstrated for the first time. We also propose rs6665194 to be a promising candidate for RA risk evaluation between ethnicities.

Abstract
Oestrogen receptors are implicated in the pathogenesis of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). Non-genomic oestrogen responses can be mediated by GPER. The prevalence of polymorphisms in GPER1 gene in RSA was assessed in 747 Chinese women from Yunnan province (171 Bai, 258 Chinese Han, 234 Dai, 33 Achang and 51 Jingpo patients). Snapshot technology was used for genotyping the polymorphisms of the GPER1 gene. The rs4265085G was significantly increased in the Dai and Bai groups versus controls (Dai: P < 0.0001, Padj < 0.0001, OR 95% CI 2.34 [1.79 to 3.05]; Bai: P = 0.0004, Padj = 0.0012, OR 95% CI 1.71 [1.27 to 2.31]); recessive model of rs4265085 in the Dai (P = 0.003, Padj = 0.009, OR 95% CI 2.71 [1.38 to 5.30]); Bai (P < 0.0001, Padj < 0.0001, OR 95% CI 3.37 [1.93 to 5.91]). Haplotype frequencies containing rs10269151G-rs4265085G-rs11544331C were separately significantly different in Dai and Bai ethnic groups (Dai: P = 0.0002, Padj = 0.001, OR 95% CI = 2.12 [1.43 to 3.17]; Bai: P = 0.005, Padj = 0.025, OR 95% CI = 1.82 [1.18 to 2.78]) compared with controls. The intron variant rs4265085 may confer risk for RSA in Dai and Bai ethnic groups.

Association of PTPN22 Haplotypes (-1123G>C/+1858C>T) with Rheumatoid Arthritis in Western Mexican Population. Int J Genomics 2017; 2017:8753498. [PMID: 28210620 PMCID: PMC5292183 DOI: 10.1155/2017/8753498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2016] [Revised: 11/06/2016] [Accepted: 12/18/2016] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of antibodies against cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP), a consequence of the breakdown of immune tolerance. The lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase (Lyp) protein has significant effects on maintenance of peripheral immune tolerance. Two polymorphic variants (-1123G>C and +1858C>T) at PTPN22 gene that encodes this protein have been associated with autoimmune disorders and found in strong linkage disequilibrium in Caucasian population. We evaluated whether PTPN22 haplotypes (-1123G>C/+1858C>T) are associated with anti-CCP antibodies, as well as susceptibility to RA in a Western Mexican population. A total of 315 RA patients and 315 control subjects (CS) were included. The polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR-RFLP and the anti-CCP antibodies were determined by ELISA. The PTPN22 polymorphisms were in strong linkage disequilibrium (D' = 1.00 in CS). The susceptibility haplotype CT was significantly more frequent in RA patients than in CS (OR 2.18, 95% CI 1.15-4.16, p = 0.01). No association between haplotypes and anti-CCP antibodies levels was observed. In conclusion, this study confirmed that -1123G>C and +1858C>T PTPN22 polymorphisms are in strong linkage disequilibrium and the CT haplotype is a susceptibility marker to RA in Western Mexico. However, the PTPN22 haplotypes are not associated with anti-CCP antibodies.

Ann Gastroenterol 2017; 30:197-208. [PMID: 28243041 PMCID: PMC5320033 DOI: 10.20524/aog.2017.0121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2016] [Accepted: 12/07/2016] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Although the rs2476601 polymorphism of PTPN22 has been reported to be a susceptibility gene for Crohn’s disease (CD), results from different studies vary and remain inconclusive. Also, no association has been found between rs2476601 and the risk of ulcerative colitis (UC). The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the association between this PTPN22 polymorphism (rs2476601) and the risk of inflammatory bowel disease, UC and CD. Methods We performed a meta-analysis by identifying relevant candidate gene-based studies from EMBASE and MEDLINE. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to estimate the strength of associations between rs2476601 and inflammatory bowel diseases, using a fixed effect or random effect model. Publication bias was also assessed. Results By pooling 14 different studies, 13,356 controls, 8182 patients with CD, and 8656 with UC were included. We found that the T allele of PTPN22 was not significantly associated with a higher risk of developing UC (OR 1.06, 95%CI 0.98-1.14) but was associated with a decreased risk of developing CD (OR 1.28, 95%CI 1.17-1.40). The T allele in rs2476601 lowered the risk of CD by 22%. Conclusion This study shows that PTPN22 (rs2476601) is significantly associated with the risk of developing CD, but has no association with UC. This suggests that these diseases have different pathways involved in their pathophysiology.

PTPN22 polymorphisms, but not R620W, were associated with the genetic susceptibility of systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis in a Chinese Han population. Hum Immunol 2016; 77:692-698. [PMID: 27166176 DOI: 10.1016/j.humimm.2016.04.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2015] [Revised: 01/18/2016] [Accepted: 04/28/2016] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to detect a possible association between PTPN22 gene polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a Chinese Han population. METHODS 7 PTPN22 SNPs were genotyped in 358 patients with RA and 713 patients with SLE, as well as 564 RA controls and 672 SLE controls by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP). Association analyses were conducted on the whole data set. Significant relationships were also examined between clinical features and SNPs for both RA and SLE. RESULTS Rs2476601 was lack of polymorphism with a ⩽0.1% frequency in both SLE and RA patients and healthy controls in our study. The two SNPs rs1217414 and rs3811021 of PTPN22 shown strong association with both SLE (rs1217414T: padj = 6.07e-004, OR=0.57; rs3811021C: padj = 4.68e-005, OR=0.65) and RA (rs1217414T: padj = 2.01e-008, OR=0.26; rs3811021C: padj = 0.028, OR=0.70). And the rs3765598 revealed a strong risk factor for SLE (p=9.38e-009, padj = 6.57e-008, OR=1.93), but not for RA (p=0.48, OR=1.12). Moreover, protective haplotype ACTTC in RA (p=7.73e-016, padj = 5.51-015, OR[95%CI]=0.02[0.002-0.10]) and SLE (p=8.29e-018, padj = 5.80e-017, OR[95%CI]=0.11[0.06-0.21]) were observed. In addition, the distribution of risk haplotypes ACGTC and GCTTT in RA (ACGTC: p=0.0006, padj = 0.004, OR[95%CI]=1.85[1.29-2.63]; GCTTT: p=2.62e-005, padj = 1.85e-004, OR[95%CI]=2.40[1.57-3.65]) and SLE (ACGTC: p=0.0006, padj = 0.004, OR[95%CI]=1.85[1.29-2.63]; ACGTC: p=7.74e-011, padj = 6.81e-010, OR[95%CI]=2.21[1.12-3.34]; GCTTT: p=2.40[1.57-3.65], padj = 2.26e-006, OR[95%CI]=2.64[1.79-3.87]) were significant different from that in controls. Furthermore, significant association was observed between the PTPN22 rs3765598 and antinuclear antibodies 1 (ANA1) in SLE. CONCLUSIONS Our data provide strong evidence that the rs1217414 and rs3811021 in PTPN22 gene might be common protective factors contributed to SLE and RA susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. While, the rs3765598 might increase the genetic susceptibility of SLE, but not RA.

Abstract
The PTPN22 1858C/T polymorphism is associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, reports from the Asian populations are conflicting in nature and lacks consensus. The aim of our study was to evaluate the association between the PTPN22 1858C/T polymorphism and RA in Asian and Caucasian subjects by carrying out a meta-analysis of Asian and Caucasian data. A total of 27 205 RA cases and 27 677 controls were considered in the present meta-analysis involving eight Asian and 35 Caucasian studies. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) were performed for the allele, dominant, and recessive genetic model. No statistically significant association was found between the PTPN22 1858C/T polymorphism and risk of RA in Asian population (allele genetic model: OR = 1.217, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.99-1.496, p value 0.061; dominant genetic model: OR = 1.238, 95% CI = 0.982-1.562, p value 0.071; recessive genetic model: OR = 1.964, 95% CI = 0.678-5.693, p value 0.213). A significant association with risk of RA in Caucasian population suggesting that T-- allele does confer susceptibility to RA in this subgroup was observed (allele genetic model: OR = 1.638, 95% CI = 1.574-1.705, p value < 0.0001; dominant genetic model: OR = 1.67, 95% CI = 1.598-1.745, p value < 0.0001; recessive genetic model: OR = 2.65, 95% CI = 2.273-3.089, p value < 0.0001). The PTPN22 1858C/T polymorphism is not associated with RA risk in Asian populations. However, our meta-analysis confirms that the PTPN22 1858C/T polymorphism is associated with RA susceptibility in Caucasians.

Abstract
Lymphoid protein tyrosine phosphatase encoded by protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (PTPN22) gene plays an important regulatory role in T- and B-cell activation. This study investigated PTPN22 -1123G/C and intron 16 T/C polymorphisms in 372 patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, 72 HBV infection resolvers and 273 healthy controls. Genotypic association tests between groups assuming codominant, dominant or log-additive genetic models were performed. In recessive model, PTPN22 -1123G/C genotype GG in healthy controls was more frequent than infection resolvers (P=0.037, OR=3.606, 95%CI=1.079-12.053) and this genotype in HBV patients was more frequent than resolvers although the difference was not significant (P=0.059). The PTPN22 intron 16 T/C genotype TC in cirrhosis patients was significantly higher than asymptomatic carriers (ASC) in codominant (P=0.028, OR=9.792, 95%CI=1.281-74.832) and overdominant (P=0.025, OR=10.142, 95%CI=1.332-77.214) models. This genotype in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients was significantly higher than ASC in codominant (P=0.034, OR=9.200, 95%CI=1.176-71.990) and overdominant (P=0.030, OR=9.677, 95%CI=1.241-75.442) models. These findings suggest that PTPN22 polymorphisms may predispose the chronicity or the development of cirrhosis and HCC in HBV infection.

Association between a gain-of-function variant of PTPN22 and rejection in liver transplantation. Transplantation 2015; 99:431-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 gene (PTPN22) encodes a strong T-cell regulator called lymphoid protein tyrosine phosphatase. Previously, PTPN22 was described as a susceptibility gene for autoimmunity because it contains single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with several autoimmune diseases. One SNP (rs2476601; 1858G>A) has emerged as a particularly potent risk factor for autoimmunity. We address the question whether PTPN22 polymorphisms are also associated with acute rejection after liver transplantation. METHODS We investigated the influence of six PTPN22 SNPs on the susceptibility to acute liver allograft rejection. Consequently, we carried out a retrospective study genotyping 345 German liver recipients at six SNP loci, which include rs2488457 (-1123G>C), rs33996649 (788C>T), rs2476601 (1858G>A), rs1310182 (-852A>G), rs1217388 (-2200G>A), rs3789604 (64434T>G). Our study enrolled 165 recipients who did not develop rejection, 123 who showed one rejection episode, and 57 patients who suffered from multiple acute rejections after transplantation. RESULTS The 1858A allele containing genotypes (GA+AA) and the 1858A allele had a significantly higher frequency in the group of patients with multiple rejection episodes (35.1% and 18.4%) compared to rejection-free patients (15.8% and 7.9%; P=0.022 and 0.023). In contrast, we could not detect any association between rejection and the other tested SNPs. Additionally, we identified one haplotype contributing to risk of multiple rejections, however, exhibiting no stronger impact than the 1858A allele alone. CONCLUSION We conclude that the 1858G>A SNP may confer susceptibility to multiple acute liver transplant rejections in the German population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease with a complex genetic background. The genes encoding protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT4) have been reported to be associated with RA in several ethnic populations. OBJECTIVES This work aims to assess the association between PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms with RA susceptibility through an updated meta-analysis of available case-control studies. METHODS A literature search of all relevant studies published from January 2007 up to December 2014 was conducted using Pubmed and Science Direct databases. The observed studies that were related to an association between PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms with RA susceptibility were identified. Meta-analysis of the pooled and stratified data was done and assessed using varied genetic models. RESULTS Thirty-seven case-control studies with a total of 47 comparisons (29 for PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism and 18 for STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphism) met our inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis showed an association between PTPN22 T allele, CT+TT and TT genotypes with RA susceptibility. Furthermore, The meta-analysis showed an association between STAT4 T allele, GT+TT and TT genotypes with RA susceptibility. Stratification of RA patients according to ethnic groups showed that PTPN22 T allele, CT+TT genotypes, STAT4 T allele and STAT4 GT+TT were significantly associated with RA in European, Asian, African subjects, while PTPN22 TT genotype was significantly associated with RA in European but not in Asian and African subjects and STAT4 TT genotype was significantly associated with RA in European and Asian but not in African subject. A subgroup analysis according to the presence or absence of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies revealed that the association between PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms with RA susceptibility may not be dependent on RF and anti-CCP antibodies. CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis demonstrated that PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms confers susceptibility to RA in total subjects and in major ethnic groups. The association may not be dependent on RF and anti-CCP antibodies.

Abstract
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a common autoimmune disease characterized by environmental influences along with several predisposing genes in the pathogenesis. The protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 (PTPN22) and signal transducer and activator of transcription factor 4 (STAT4) have been recognized as susceptibility genes for numerous autoimmune diseases. Associations of STAT4 rs7574865 G/T and PTPN22 (rs2488457 G/C and rs2476601 C/T) polymorphisms with JIA have repeatedly been replicated in several Caucasian populations. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of three polymorphisms mentioned above on the risk of developing JIA in Han Chinese patients. Genotyping was performed on a total of 137 Chinese patients with JIA (JIA group) and 150 sex and age frequency-matched healthy volunteers (Control group). The single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were determined by using direct sequencing of PCR-amplified products. There were significant differences of PTPN22 rs2488457 G/C and STAT4 rs7574865 G/T polymorphisms between both groups. However, no significant difference was observed in distribution frequencies of PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism. The association with the PTPN22 rs2488457 G/C polymorphism remained significant in the stratifications by age at onset, ANA status, splenomegaly, lymphadenectasis and involvement joints. As with the STAT4 rs7574865 G/T polymorphisms, the enthesitis-related arthritis and presence of hepatomegaly had strong effect on the association. Our data strengthen STAT4 rs7574865 G/T and PTPN22 rs2488457 G/C polymorphisms as susceptibility factors for JIA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (PTPN22) is a key negative regulator of T lymphocytes and has emerged as an important candidate susceptibility factor for a number of immune-related diseases. This study aimed to examine the predisposition of PTPN22 SNPs to Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome and acute anterior uveitis (AAU) associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS A total of 1005 VKH syndrome, 302 AAU+AS+ patients and 2010 normal controls among the Chinese Han population were enrolled in the study. Genotyping, PTPN22 expression, cell proliferation, cytokine production and cell activation were examined by PCR-RFLP, Real-time PCR, CCK8, ELISA and Flow cytometry. RESULTS The results showed significantly increased frequencies of the rs2488457 CC genotype and C allele but a decreased frequency of the GG genotype in VKH syndrome patients (PBonferroni correction (Pc) = 3.47×10(-7), OR = 1.54; Pc = 3.83×10(-8), OR = 1.40; Pc = 6.35×10(-4), OR = 0.62; respectively). No significant association of the tested SNPs with AAU+AS+ patients was observed. Functional studies showed a decreased PTPN22 expression, impaired cell proliferation and lower production of IL-10 in rs2488457 CC cases compared to GG cases (Pc = 0.009, Pc = 0.015 and Pc = 0.048 respectively). No significant association was observed concerning T cell activation and rs2488457 genotype. CONCLUSIONS The study showed that a functional variant of PTPN22 confers risk for VKH syndrome but not for AAU+AS+ in a Chinese Han population, which may be due to a modulation of the PTPN22 expression, PBMC proliferation and IL-10 production.

Abstract
Inheritance of a coding variant of the protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene is associated with increased susceptibility to autoimmunity and infection. Efforts to elucidate the mechanisms by which the PTPN22-C1858T variant modulates disease risk revealed that PTPN22 performs a signaling function in multiple biochemical pathways and cell types. Capable of both enzymatic activity and adaptor functions, PTPN22 modulates signaling through antigen and innate immune receptors. PTPN22 plays roles in lymphocyte development and activation, establishment of tolerance, and innate immune cell-mediated host defense and immunoregulation. The disease-associated PTPN22-R620W variant protein is likely involved in multiple stages of the pathogenesis of autoimmunity. Establishment of a tolerant B cell repertoire is disrupted by PTPN22-R620W action during immature B cell selection, and PTPN22-R620W alters mature T cell responsiveness. However, after autoimmune attack has initiated tissue injury, PTPN22-R620W may foster inflammation through modulating the balance of myeloid cell-produced cytokines.

Abstract
PURPOSE Our aims were to evaluate protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene polymorphisms in ulcerative colitis (UC) and explore PTPN22 mRNA levels in colonic biopsies of UC patients in central China. METHODS A total of 165 Chinese UC patients and 300 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. PTPN22 -1123G/C, +1858C/T, and +788G/A polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. PTPN22 mRNA expressions in colonic biopsies and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were determined by quantitative PCR and immunonephelometry, respectively. RESULTS The frequency of C carrier was higher in UC patients than in healthy controls (66.7 vs. 53.3%, P = 0.005, odds ratios = 1.75, 95% CI 1.18-2.60) and associated with extensive colitis (P = 0.029). PTPN22 mRNA levels were elevated in UC patients than in healthy controls (P < 0.001). Among UC patients, PTPN22 mRNA expression levels were higher in biopsies of inflamed colonic tissue compared with noninflamed tissue (P < 0.001) and were correlated with CRP levels (r = 0.578, P < 0.001). PTPN22 mRNA expression levels were elevated in extensive colitis compared to proctitis (P = 0.008) and to left-sided colitis (P = 0.029) and were higher in moderate and severe disease than in mild disease (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Our study showed the potential association between PTPN22 -1123G/C polymorphism and UC in central China. PTPN22 mRNA levels were highly expressed in UC, especially in active disease, and were correlated with CRP levels, disease location, and disease severity in UC patients.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the association between protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene polymorphisms (-1123G/C in the promoter and +788G/A in exon 10) and disease susceptibility and phenotypes of ulcerative colitis (UC), and to investigate PTPN22 mRNA expression in colonic biopsies of UC patients.
METHODS: A total of 165 UC patients and 300 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. PTPN22 gene -1123G/C and +788G/A polymorphisms were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism. PTPN22 mRNA expression in colonic biopsies of UC patients and controls was determined by quantitative RT-PCR.
RESULTS: The frequencies of "CC + CG" genotypes and C allele were higher in UC patients than in healthy controls (66.7% vs 53.3%, P = 0.005, OR = 1.75, 95%CI: 1.18-2.60; 41.5% vs 33.5%, P = 0.015, OR = 1.41, 95%CI: 1.07-1.86), and were associated with extensive colitis (P = 0.029). In UC patients, PTPN22 mRNA expression levels were elevated in active disease compared to inactive disease (P = 0.005). There was no association between PTPN22 mRNA expression levels and -1123G/C polymorphism in UC patients. PTPN22 gene +788G/A polymorphism did not show any association with UC.
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates a potential association between PTPN22 -1123G/C polymorphism and UC in central China. PTPN22 mRNA is highly expressed in active UC, suggesting that PTPN22 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of UC.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether the protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 (PTPN22) C1858T polymorphism confers susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in populations with different ethnicities. MEDLINE database and manual search were utilized to identify articles in which the PTPN22 polymorphism was determined in RA patients and controls. A meta-analysis was conducted on the associations between the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism and RA using (1) allelic contrast and (2) dominant model. A total of 30 separate comparisons involving 17,961 RA patients and 18,611 controls were considered in this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis showed an association between the T allele and RA in all subjects (OR = 1.490, 95% CI = 1.332-1.668, P < 1.0 × 10(-9)). After stratification by ethnicity, analysis indicated that the T allele was significantly associated with RA in Europeans and in Non-Europeans (OR = 1.423, 95% CI = 1.260-1.605, P = 1.0 × 10(-8); OR = 1.902, 95% CI = 1.488-2.430, P = 2.8 × 10(-8)). Meta-analysis of the CT + TT genotype showed the same result patterns as that shown by the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism T allele. Furthermore, a direct comparison between rheumatoid factor (RF)-positive and RF-negative subjects revealed a significant association with the T allele in RA patients with RF, but not in subjects without RF (OR = 1.561, 95% CI = 1.373-1.775, P < 1.0 × 10(-9)). This meta-analysis confirms that the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism is associated with RA susceptibility in different ethnic groups, especially in Europeans, and the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism T allele is significantly more prevalent in RF-positive patents than in RF-negative patients.

Abstract
The C1858T single nucleotide polymorphism in PTPN22, which is the gene encoding lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase (LYP), confers increased risk for various autoimmune disorders in Caucasians. Although the disease-associated LYP allele (LYP*W620) is a gain-of-function variant that has higher catalytic activity than the major allele (LYP*R620), it is still unclear how LYP*W620 predisposes for autoimmunity. Here, we compared both T cell signaling and T cell function in healthy human donors homozygous for either LYP*R620 or LYP*W620. Generally, the presence of LYP*W620 caused reduced proximal T cell antigen receptor-mediated signaling (e.g. ζ chain phosphorylation) but augmented CD28-associated signaling (e.g. AKT activation). Altered ligand binding properties of the two LYP variants could explain these findings since LYP*R620 interacted more strongly with the p85 subunit of PI3K. Variation in signaling between cells expressing either LYP*R620 or LYP*W620 also affected the differentiation of conventional CD4(+) T cells. For example, LYP*W620 homozygous donors displayed exaggerated Th1 responses (e.g. IFNγ production) and reduced Th17 responses (e.g. IL-17 production). Importantly, while regulatory T cells normally suppressed Th1-mediated IFNγ production in LYP*R620 homozygous individuals, such suppression was lost in LYP*W620 homozygous individuals. Altogether, these findings provide a molecular and cellular explanation for the autoimmune phenotype associated with LYP*W620.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies have revealed that the 16p13 chromosomal region, including CLEC16A, DEXI, CIITA and SOCS1, is associated with susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. As non-coding single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may confer susceptibility to disease by affecting expression of nearby genes, we examined whether autoimmune-associated intronic CLEC16A SNPs (rs12708716, rs6498169 and rs7206912) correlate with the expression of CLEC16A itself as well as neighboring genes in whole-blood and thymic samples. Real-time quantitative PCR analyses show that SOCS1 and DEXI expression was lower in thymic samples carrying at least one of the CLEC16A risk alleles compared with non-carriers of the risk allele. Linear regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between the expression level of CLEC16A and that of SOCS1 and DEXI in thymic samples. These data indicate a possible regulatory role for multiple sclerosis-associated non-coding CLEC16A SNPs and a common control mechanism for the expression of CLEC16A, SOCS1 and DEXI.

Abstract
PTPN22 is a critical negative regulator of T cell responses. Its promoter gene variant (rs2488457, -1123G>C) has been reported to be associated with autoimmune diseases. This study analyzed the impact of the PTPN22 variant on transplantation outcomes in a cohort of 663 patients who underwent unrelated HLA-matched bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for hematologic malignancies through the Japan Marrow Donor Program. The recipient C/C genotype versus the recipient G/G genotype resulted in a lower incidence of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (hazard ratio [HR], 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.29-0.85; P = .01), as well as a higher incidence of relapse (HR, 1.78; 95% CI, 1.10-2.90; P = .02), as demonstrated on multivariate analysis. In patients with high-risk disease, the recipient C/C genotype was associated with significantly worse overall survival rates than the recipient G/G genotype (HR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.02-2.51; P = .04), whereas this effect was absent in patients with standard-risk disease. In addition, the donor G/C genotype was associated with a lower incidence of relapse (HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.40-0.85), which did not influence survival. Our findings suggest that PTPN22 genotyping could be useful in predicting prognoses and creating therapeutic strategies for improving the final outcomes of allogeneic BMT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess whether there are cis-regulatory polymorphisms that regulate protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) expression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS RNA was extracted from positively selected CD56+, CD8+, and CD4+ mononuclear cells and the 'residual' cells from 12 RA patients heterozygous for the PTPN22 C1858T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs2476601). Relative allelic expression was measured by single base extension (SBE) assay. RESULTS There was relative differential allelic expression (DAE ≥ 20%) in eight patients (p < 10(-5)); seven patients demonstrated DAE in more than one cell type; four patients had statistically significant differences between these cell populations (p(corrected) < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS We have demonstrated significant differences in expression of PTPN22 alleles in RA patients, indicating the probable existence of cis-acting regulatory elements.

Abstract
Lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase (LYP) and C-terminal Src kinase (CSK) are negative regulators of signaling mediated through the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and are thought to act in a cooperative manner when forming a complex. Here, we studied the spatio-temporal dynamics of the LYP/CSK complex in T cells. We demonstrate that dissociation of this complex is necessary for recruitment of LYP to the plasma membrane, where it down-modulates TCR signaling. Development of a potent and selective chemical probe of LYP confirmed that LYP inhibits T cell activation when removed from CSK. Our findings may explain the reduced TCR-mediated signaling associated with a single nucleotide polymorphism, which confers increased risk for certain autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis, and results in expression of a LYP allele that is unable to bind CSK. Our compound also represents a starting point for the development of a LYP-based treatment of autoimmunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Considerable amount of evidences in the Caucasians have suggested the association of a missense single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene (rs2476601) with several autoimmune diseases including autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) and type 1 diabetes (T1D). As the SNP was reported to be non-polymorphic in Asians, we attempt to explore an association of PTPN22 without restricting to the rs2476601 with AITD or T1D in Korean population. METHODS We studied 389 T1D, 212 AITD (84 Graves' disease and 128 Hashimoto's thyroiditis) patients and 225 controls. In addition to the rs2476601, we selected five testing SNPs spanning 58 kb over the PTPN22 gene using the previous resequencing data and International HapMap Project. RESULTS We found that neither alleles, genotypes among all five SNPs, nor reconstructed haplotypes of five SNPs were associated with T1D. Interestingly, a minor allele of a SNP (rs12730735) and a haplotype (GGCTT) showed significant association with the susceptibility of AITD, especially with that of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that the PTPN22 gene polymorphism independent of the SNP rs2476601 might be a supplementary risk factor to AITD, but not in T1D in Koreans, contradicting a major contributory influence of the PTPN22 gene in explaining common mechanism underlying multiple autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The PTPN22 rs2476601 genetic variant has been associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other autoimmune diseases. Some reports suggest that this single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) may not be the only causal variant in the region of PTPN22. Our aim was to identify new independent RA-associated common gene variants in the PTPN22 region. METHODS We analyzed Wellcome Trust Case-Control Consortium genome-wide association study data for associations in the 397.2 kb PTPN22 region and selected 9 associated SNP (with p < 5 × 10(-3)) for replication and dependence analysis. The replication cohorts comprised 2857 patients with RA and 2994 controls from Spain, Netherlands, and Norway. RESULTS We found that 6 of the 9 selected SNP were associated in the Spanish cohort. Of these, 4 were also associated in the Dutch and Norwegian cohorts, and all 6 were associated with RA in the combined analysis. Conditional analyses showed that none of these associations was independent of rs2476601. CONCLUSION The SNP rs2476601 located in the PTPN22 gene is the sole common genetic variant associated with RA in the 1p13.2 region, suggesting that neighbor genes of PTPN22 do not have a major influence in RA.

Abstract
Objective The PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism is associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA); nonetheless, the association is weaker or absent in some southern European populations. The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between the PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism and RA in Italian subjects and to compare our results with those of other European countries, carrying out a meta-analysis of European data. Methods A total of 396 RA cases and 477 controls, all of Italic ancestry, were genotyped for PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism. Patients were tested for autoantibodies positivity. The meta-analysis was performed on 23 selected studies. Results The PTPN22 T1858 allele was significantly more frequent in RA patients compared to controls (5.7% vs. 3.7%, p = 0.045). No clear relationship arose with the autoantibodies tested. The 1858T allele frequency in Italian RA patients was lower than the one described in northern European populations and similar to the frequency found in Spain, Turkey, Greece, Tunisia. A clear-cut North-South gradient arose from the analysis. Conclusions The PTPN22 T1858 allele is associated with RA in the Italian population. A North-South gradient of the allele frequency seems to exist in Europe, with a lower prevalence of the mutation in the Mediterranean area.

Abstract
The study of complex genetics in autoimmune diseases has progressed at a tremendous pace over the last 4 years, as a direct result of the enormous gains made by genome wide association studies (GWAS). Novel genetic findings are continuously being reported alongside the rapid development of genetic technologies, sophisticated statistical analysis, and larger sample collections. It is now becoming clear that multiple genes contribute to disease risk in many complex genetic disorders including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and that there are common genetic risk factors that underlie a spectrum of autoimmune diseases. This review details the current genetic landscape of RA, and describes what GWAS has taught us in terms of missing heritability, subsets of disease, existence of genetic heterogeneity, and shared autoimmune risk loci. Finally, this review addresses the initial challenges faced in translating the wealth of genetic findings into determining the biological mechanisms that contribute to the relationship between genotype and phenotype. Unraveling the mechanism of how genes directly influence the cause of RA will lead to a better understanding of the disease and will ultimately have a direct clinical impact, informing the development of new therapies that can be utilized in the treatment of RA.

Abstract
This study aimed at examining the association of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the protein tyrosine phosphatase gene (PTPN22) with the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a Chinese population. A total of 200 RA patients and age and gender-matched healthy controls were recruited. Their genotypes and allelic frequency were determined by the TaqMan-MGB probe-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The frequencies of the CC genotype and C allele in RA patient group were significantly higher than that of controls (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05) with an odds ratio of 1.67, respectively. These data suggest, the CC genotype and C allele of the -1123G > C in the PTPN22 gene are associated with an increased risk for RA in Chinese population. Therefore, the CC genotype and C allele of the -1123G > C in the PTPN22 gene may be used as a genetic marker for the predisposition of RA in Chinese.

Abstract
The minor allele of the non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) +1858C>T within the PTPN22 gene has now been unequivocally confirmed as conferring susceptibility to RA in population from Europe and America, but not in population from Asia. The aim of this study was to jointly address and integrate these separate findings to further elucidate the association between the PTPN22 gene and RA in Chinese Hans of Guangdong province. Four hundred and ninety-four cases with RA and 496 healthy controls were randomly selected, their SNPs at position -1123G>C (rs2488457), +1858C>T (rs2476601), +788G>A (rs33996649), and rs1310182 were genotyped using PCR-RFLP, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis. +1858C>T (rs2476601) and +788G>A (rs33996649) are not polymorphic in Chinese Hans. Meanwhile, our result reveals that the degree of association between the promoter polymorphism, -1123G>C and RA, was analogous to that observed in Japanese reports (odds ratio [OR] = 1.517, 95% CI = [1.154-1.995], P = 0.003). Expression study also indicated a tendency for association between -1123G>C and PTPN22 gene expression. Our study underpins that the promoter polymorphism, -1123G/C, may be a causal SNP for RA in Asian.

Abstract
Objectives The Trp620 allotype of PTPN22 confers susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and certain other classical autoimmune diseases. There has been a report of other variants within the PTPN22 locus that alter risk of RA; protective haplotype ‘5’, haplotype group ‘6–10’ and susceptibility haplotype ‘4’, suggesting the possibility of other PTPN22 variants involved in the pathogenesis of RA independent of R620W (rs2476601). Our aim was to further investigate this possibility. Methods A total of 4,460 RA cases and 4,481 controls, all European, were analysed. Single nucleotide polymorphisms rs3789607, rs12144309, rs3811021 and rs12566340 were genotyped over New Zealand (NZ) and UK samples. Publically-available Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC) genotype data were used. Results The protective effect of haplotype 5 was confirmed (rs3789607; (OR = 0.91, P = 0.016), and a second protective effect (possibly of haplotype 6) was observed (rs12144309; OR = 0.90, P = 0.021). The previously reported susceptibility effect of haplotype 4 was not replicated; instead a protective effect was observed (rs3811021; OR = 0.85, P = 1.4×10−5). Haplotypes defined by rs3789607, rs12144309 and rs3811021 coalesced with the major allele of rs12566340 within the adjacent BFK (B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) family kin) gene. We, therefore, tested rs12566340 for association with RA conditional on rs2476601; there was no evidence for an independent effect at rs12566340 (P = 0.76). Similarly, there was no evidence for an independent effect at rs12566340 in type 1 diabetes (P = 0.85). Conclusions We have no evidence for a common variant additional to rs2476601 within the PTPN22 locus that influences the risk of RA. Arg620Trp is almost certainly the single common causal variant.

Abstract
PTPN22 (protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22) 1858C>T single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is one of the genetic risk factors of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, its role in the response of RA patients to therapy is not known. We examined a possible association of this SNP with a response of RA patients to methotrexate (MTX) treatment. RA was diagnosed in 371 patients according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria. All 371 patients were typed for PTPN22 1858C>T SNP. Clinical data for 308 patients treated with MTX were available. Clinical improvement was evaluated according to the ACR 20% response criteria. Five hundred and forty three unrelated healthy individuals served as a control group. DNA was isolated from venous blood and 1858C>T SNP was established by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism using XcmI digestion. One hundred and seventy four patients responded to MTX with remission of symptoms, whereas 134 individuals were not responding. Although 78.6% of patients with 1858TT genotype responded to MTX in contrast to 49.5% and 58.1% of CT and CC genotype bearers, respectively, this difference was nonsignificant due to very low numbers of TT homozygotes in both groups of patients. We confirmed strong association of 1858T allele with RA and with a disease limited to joints, but did not observe any association with a lack of rheumatoid factor, described earlier for a smaller population sample. However, the response of RA patients to MTX treatment does not seem to depend on this SNP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A missence single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 (PTPN22) gene known as R620W (rs2476601) was recently reported to be associated with several autoimmune diseases including Graves' disease (GD). The association was repeatedly confirmed in the populations of North European ancestry. However, this amino acid was reported to be nonpolymorphic in the Asian populations. Since the gene confers an impact on autoimmune diseases, we attempt to explore an association between the PTPN22 gene and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) in a Japanese population without restricting to rs2476601. Previous investigations have also demonstrated that two intronic SNPs (rs706778 and rs3118470) in the interleukin-2 receptor-alpha (IL2RA) gene were associated with type 1 diabetes in the Japanese population. PATIENTS AND METHODS We genotyped the five SNPs (rs12760457, rs2797415, rs1310182, rs2476599, and rs3789604) of the PTPN22 and the two SNPs (rs706778 and rs3118470 in the IL2RA gene) in 456 Japanese patients with AITD (286 with GD, 170 with Hashimoto's thyroiditis) and 221 matched Japanese control subjects. Seven SNPs were analyzed by either the SNAPshot method or the high-resolution melting and unlabeled probe methods. Case-control association studies were performed using the chi(2) and Fisher's exact tests with Yates correction. Haplotype was conducted using the expectation-maximization algorithm. RESULTS No association was found between any of the individual SNPs of the PTPN22 gene and AITD. Permutation analysis revealed that the distribution of one haplotype is significantly different between patients with AITD and controls (p = 0.0036). A novel protective effect of a haplotype containing five SNPs was observed (p < 0.0001 for AITD, p < 0.0001 for GD, and p < 0.0001 for Hashimoto's thyroiditis, respectively). The GG allele of rs3118470 in the IL2RA gene was significantly associated with GD (p = 0.03), although the association was weak. CONCLUSIONS Significant difference in the distribution of the haplotype suggests that the PTPN22 gene rather than rs2476601 is involved in the development of AITD in the Japanese population.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex disease, meaning that multiple genetic variants, environmental factors and random events interact to trigger pathological pathways. Although many of these etiological factors have not yet been identified, recent groundbreaking advances have expanded our knowledge about the genetic factors that contribute to RA. Here, we review the most recent findings on the genetic risk factors for RA. First, we give an overview of the genetics of RA and briefly describe the susceptibility loci discovered prior to the availability of genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Second, we focus on the newly discovered RA loci that have arisen from GWAS in populations of European ancestry. Through these studies, the number of established RA susceptibility loci has now grown to 13. Third, we discuss several important issues emerging from GWAS, such as ethnic heterogeneity and shared autoimmunity risk loci. Finally, we discuss what still needs to be accomplished before a more complete picture of the genetic risk to RA can be attained.
