There was no significant association both in allele and genotype comparisons between the MYO9B (rs2305764, rs2305767, rs1457092) polymorphism and CD in Caucasian populations.
SNPs rs2305767 and rs1457092 were associated with celiac disease (CD); TT genotype in rs2305767 would be a protective factor (p < 0.000, OR = 0.19 CI 0.1-0.4) and the CT genotype would be a risk factor (p < 0.0001, OR = 4.9 CI 2.2 to 11.3).
To date, seven studies have provided evidence for an association between the gene encoding for myosin IXB (MYO9B) and celiac disease (CD), and inflammatory bowel diseases, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2305767, rs1457092, and rs2305764.
An association was observed between CD and rs2305764 (p=0.01, OR=2.3), between SLE and rs1457092 (p=0.002, OR=1.4), and between RA and rs1457092 (p=0.02, OR=1.3).
