Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) gene have been documented to be linked with several autoimmune disorders including Behçet's disease (BD). PTPN2 SNPs rs2542151 and rs7234029 have been assessed using real-time PCR in 96 BD patients and 50 controls matched by age and gender. Patients were categorized into groups according to the disease phenotypes and severity. A total of 94.8% of patients were males. The patients' mean age…

Genetic and environmental factors are involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The study aimed at investigating the potential influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) NOD2 rs2066844, NOD2 rs2066845, NOD2 rs2066847, IL23R rs11209026, PTPN2 rs2542151, PTPN2 rs7234029, and ATG16L1 rs2241880 on the response to immunomodulatory therapies and disease course in Crohn's disease (CD). This is an uncontrolled retrospective monocentric study including patients from the…

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease resulting in chronic inflammation of the synovium and consequent cartilage and bone erosion. RA is associated strongly with the presence of rheumatoid factor (RF), and consists of clinical subsets of anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA)-positive and -negative patients. This study was designed to evaluate whether relevant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with RA and other autoimmune disorders are related to RF, ACPA…

Several studies have reported the association of PTPN2 gene with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in many populations but not in the Chinese Han population. Therefore, the goal of our study was to replicate the reported association between 2 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs478582 and rs2542151) in the PTPN2 gene and T1DM in Chinese Han children. This case-control study included 141 Chinese Han children with T1DM and 282 healthy controls. Genetic variants of rs478582 and rs2542151 in PTPN…

Behçet's disease (BD) is a rare, chronic, relapsing, systemic, immune-mediated vasculitis and the etiology remains to be defined. This study investigated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) and inducible T-cell co-stimulator-ligand gene (ICOSLG) in Chinese Han BD patients and healthy controls because SNPs of these two genes are associated with risk of developing other auto-inflammation diseases. A total of 407 BD patients and 679…

Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and subsequent meta-analyses have confirmed associations between the PTPN2 (protein tyrosine phosphatase, nonreceptor type 2) gene and Crohn's disease (CD), the potential causal variants remain unidentified. We aimed to dissect potential causal CD-associated PTPN2 variants, assess their functional significance, and relate PTPN2 protein expression with inflammation in CD. A 3-stage study was carried out. In stage 1, we genotyped tagging single nucle…

Genome-wide association studies identified PTPN2 (protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 2) as susceptibility gene for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). However, the exact role of PTPN2 in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) and its phenotypic effect are unclear. We therefore performed a detailed genotype-phenotype and epistasis analysis of PTPN2 gene variants. Genomic DNA from 2131 individuals of Caucasian origin (905 patients with CD, 318 patients with UC, and 908 health…

PTPN2 is a risk gene for Crohn's disease (CD). We investigated whether PTPN2 genetic variants (rs2542151 and rs2542152) were associated with CD in a familial IBD registry. Both rs2542151 and rs2542152 are associated with CD, but not ulcerative colitis (UC). mRNA expression levels of PTPN2 were significantly increased in intestinal tissues (p=0.0493), and nearly significantly increased in B cells (p=0.0889) from CD patients, but not significantly altered in UC. cDNA microarray results found that…

The Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC) genome-wide study found association of PTPN2 with three autoimmune diseases, among them is type 1 diabetes (T1D). This result was confirmed by a follow-up study that pointed to new independent signals within the region. However, both studies were performed in patients with an early-onset T1D. We aimed at replicating the previous results and studying the influence of these polymorphisms in the age at T1D debut. We genotyped 439 T1D Spanish subjec…

Smoking behavior and genetic variations are important factors for the development of Crohn's disease (CD), but studies investigating the interaction between smoking and genetic background are scarce. We studied allelic associations of 19 confirmed variants located in 14 CD-associated genes or loci, in CD patients stratified for active smoking at diagnosis and passive smoking in childhood. Genotyping data of 19 CD-associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were available for 310 CD patient…
