Analysis of Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) Gene Polymorphisms in Alopecia Areata

Abstract

of data results showed a not significant association for genotypic frequency distribution between the VDR gene BsmI (rs1544410) and ApaI (rs7975232), TaqI (rs731236) polymorphisms and AA (p=0.8891, 0.7309, 0.6761, respectively). Discussion: Our study reflects that VDR gene polymorphisms could not play a role in determining genetic susceptibility to AA.

The impact of genetic variants related to vitamin D and autoimmunity: A systematic review

“…However, the authors Irizar et al , Agnello et al, García-Martin et al , Barizzone et al , Scazzone et al , didn't identify an association between the genetic variants and Multiple Sclerosis. Also, Ates et al did not find any association with Alopecia Areata [ [79] , [80] , [81] , [82] , [83] , [84] , [85] ].…”
