Two tag SNPs (rs5029930 and rs610604) were independently associated with CAD; adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for minor allele carriers were 2.3 (95% CI 1.4-3.8, P = 0.001) and 2.0 (1.3-2.9, P = 0.0008), respectively.

We show that three independent SNPs in the TNFAIP3 region (rs13192841, rs2230926 and rs6922466) are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) among individuals of European ancestry.
We carried out a genome-wide association scan and replication study and found an association between SLE and a variant in TNFAIP3 (rs5029939, meta-analysis P = 2.89 x 10(-12), OR = 2.29).

The combination of the carriage of both risk alleles of rs6920220 and rs5029937 together with the absence of the protective allele of rs13207033 was strongly associated with RA when compared with carriage of none [OR of 1.86 (95% CI) (1.51-2.29)].
We observed a significant association between rs2230926 and an increased risk of SLE and RA in the Japanese population (for SLE, odds ratio [OR] 1.92, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.53-2.41, P = 1.9 x 10(-8); for RA, OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.18-1.56, P = 2.6 x 10(-5)).
There are two nonsynonymous coding polymorphisms in the deubiquitinating (DUB) domain of TNFAIP3: F127C, which is in high-linkage disequilibrium with reported SLE-risk variants, and A125V, which has not been previously studied.
Our findings suggest that SNP rs2230926 in the TNFAIP3 might be a common genetic factor for SLE within different populations in terms of Chinese Han and European population.
