SNPs were detected for TCF4 (rs613872, rs2123392, rs17089887, rs1452787, and rs1348047), but only rs613872 showed a significant association with FECD (P = 9.93 × 10).
Further interaction and stratification analysis suggested that rs1452787 was notably correlated with increased SCZ risk in males (OR = 2.77, 95%CI = 1.43-5.35, P = 0.002).
We found that the genotype "AG" of rs9320010 and "GA" of rs7235757 decreased SCZ risk (OR = 0.70, 95%</span>CI = 0.50-0.99, P = 0.041; OR = 0.69, 95%CI = 0.49-0.97, P = 0.034, respectively).

TCF4 poses a major contributor to FECD manifestation globally, with a significant association of rs17089887 and CTG18.1 allele in the Indian population.
In the present study, we screened several reported SNPs (rs2286812, rs17595731 and rs613827 in TCF4; rs7640737 and rs2292245 in PTPRG) in FED and non-Fuchs' patients with corneal dystrophies of southern Chinese.
We discovered novel genome-wide significant associations with PSC at 2q37 [rs3749171 at G-protein-coupled receptor 35 (GPR35); P = 3.0 × 10(-9) in the overall study population, combined odds ratio [OR] and 95% confidence interval [CI] of 1.39 (1.24-1.55)] and at 18q21 [rs1452787 at transcription factor 4 (TCF4); P = 2.61 × 10(-8) , OR (95% CI) = 0.75 (0.68-0.83)].

Furthermore, an in vitro functional assay showed that S73F and S23G mutants of beta-catenin did not affect transcriptional activity in TCF-4-leuciferase reporter construct, suggesting that they may need more complex factors to participate in astrocytoma.
There was no apparent difference of beta-catenin expression profile in brain tumors; however, the sequencing data of beta-catenin showed two mutations on speculative phosphorylation sites, S73F and S23G in astrocytoma.
