The BTNL2 gene and sarcoidosis susceptibility in African Americans and Whites.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Sept 2005

Abstract excerpt

The BTNL2 gene is a member of the B7 receptor family that probably functions as a T-cell costimulatory molecule. It resides in the class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region of chromosome 6p and has recently been associated with sarcoidosis susceptibility in a white German population. We sought to replicate the BTNL2 association in an African American family-based study population (n=219 nuclear...
