The study suggested that the underlying risk causal allele tagged by SNP rs11966200 might not only play important roles in the development of vitiligo, but also contribute to the diverse clinical characteristics of generalized vitiligo at least in Chinese Han population.

Our data showed SNP rs11966200 was associated with early-onset vitiligo (onset age ≤ 20 years) (odds ratio [OR], 1.54; p = 2.01 × 10(-13)), moderate-severe vitiligo (involved body surface ≥ 5 %) (OR, 1.17; p = 0.025), vitiligo vulgaris (OR, 1.13; p = 0.043), and focal vitiligo (OR, 0.86; p = 0.018).
