We identified novel cisSNP/transcript associations for human disease-associated variants, including progressive supranuclear palsy SLCO1A2/rs11568563, Parkinson's disease (PD) MMRN1/rs6532197, Paget's disease OPTN/rs1561570; and we confirmed others, including PD MAPT/rs242557, systemic lupus erythematosus and ulcerative colitis IRF5/rs4728142, and type 1 diabetes mellitus RPS26/rs1701704.
INS gene polymorphism rs689 and IKZF4 polymorphism (rs1701704) were strongly associated with IAA positivity at the time of T1D diagnosis (p = 0.000004 and 0.00044, respectively).
