Abstract

AbstractCopy number (CN) polymorphisms of complementC4play distinct roles in many conditions, including immune-mediated diseases. We investigated the association ofC4CN with systemic sclerosis (SSc) risk. Imputed totalC4, C4A,C4B, and HERV-K CN were analyzed in 26,633 individuals and validated in an independent cohort. Our results showed that higherC4CN confers protection to SSc, and deviations from CN parity ofC4AandC4Baugmented risk. The protection contributed per copy ofC4AandC4Bdiffered by sex. Stronger protection was afforded byC4Ain men and byC4Bin women.C4CN correlated well with its gene expression and serum protein levels, and less C4 was detected for both in SSc patients. Conditioned analysis suggests thatC4genetics strongly contributes to the SSc association within the major histocompatibility complex locus and highlights classical alleles and amino acid variants ofHLA-DRB1andHLA-DPB1asC4-independent signals.
