Replication of the association between the C8orf13–BLK region and systemic lupus erythematosus in a Japanese population
ReviewIkue Ito et al.(2009)· Arthritis &amp; Rheumatism

This comprehensive review examines genetic associations in type I interferon-related signaling pathways across multiple autoimmune diseases. The authors review evidence linking dysregulated interferon alpha (IFNα) signaling to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and other autoimmune conditions, identifying multiple susceptibility genes including IFIH1, IRF5, STAT4, TYK2, BLK, BANK1, FCGR2A, and TREX1 with well-replicated associations and functional relevance to IFN pathway dysfunction.
