SMOC2 gene variant and the risk of vitiligo in Jordanian Arabs.

European journal of dermatology : EJD - 1 Jan 2000

Alkhateeb Asem, Al-Dain Marzouka Nour, Qarqaz Firas

Abstract excerpt

Generalized vitiligo is a common autoimmune disorder, characterized by patchy loss of pigmentation due to melanocyte death. It is a multifactorial disorder in which multiple genes and environmental triggers contribute to the expression of the phenotype. Different genetic variants can have varying effects on having vitiligo. Recently, an SMOC2 variant (rs13208776) was reported to be associated with vitiligo in...
