Association analysis of the PTPN22 gene in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus in Mexican population

Abstract: Several studies have identified a functional single nucleotide polymorphism 1858C/T in the PTPN22 gene to be associated with several autoimmune diseases. Association studies of this polymorphism with familial and sporadic systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have shown some discrepancies. To our knowledge, this is the first study that includes only pediatriconset SLE patients. We performed a case-control association study in 250 unrelated Mexican patients with childhood-onset SLE consisting of 228 cases with spo… Show more

“…Although several new insights have been obtained in the past decade using linkage and association studies of multicases SLE families as well as case -control studies, most of these studies have involved mainly patients with adult-onset SLE. Recently, we have replicated the observed association of the PTPN22 gene with adult-onset SLE in childhood-onset SLE in Mexican population, 18 and to our knowledge there are only two other genetic studies with a small sample size on pediatric SLE. 19,20 One was performed in 46 Chinese children showing association between SLE and a SNP in RANTES gene.…”

“…49,[56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67] Americans of non-European descent showed a very low T allele frequency, as low as 1.1% in Mexico. 68 North Africa had a similar T allele frequency to Turkey and the Middle East, which ranged from 2 to 3.5%; [69][70][71][72][73][74][75] however, PTPN22 is not polymorphic in the black African population. 76 PTPN22 is also non-polymorphic or almost non-polymorphic in some Asian populations, including Japanese, Korean, Indian and some Chinese populations.…”

“…The protein tyrosine phosphatase 22 (PTPN22) gene encodes lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase that-interacting with C-terminal Src tyrosine kinasedownregulates the T-cell receptor that mediates signaling. 127 The association of the rs2476601 ( þ 1858C/T; R620W) SNP of PTPN22 with SLE has been shown in Caucasians 128,129 and Hispanics, 128,130 but not in African Americans 128 or Norwegians. 131 We found no genetic study of PTPN22 in Asians.…”
