Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) gene is located on chromosome 6p21.3 close to the HLA-class II genes. An association has been reported between sarcoidosis and a single nucleotide polymorphism in BTNL2, rs2076530, also termed the A allele. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether patients with sarcoidosis carry the A allele more frequently than healthy subjects. METHODS: The series comprised 87 ethnic Danes...
