Abstract excerpt

Butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) polymorphisms have been associated with sarcoidosis. We hypothesized that BTNL2 variants might confer a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-independent risk for chronic beryllium disease (CBD), a granulomatous lung disease with similar clinical, radiological, and pathological features to sarcoidosis. Genomic DNA was obtained from CBD (n= 88), beryllium sensitized (BeS, n= 86), and beryllium...
