Abstract
AbstractThe study aimed to assess the involvement of three proteasomal genes, PSMA6, PSMC6, and PSMA3, in autoimmune pathogenesis by analyzing associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms and systemic rheumatic diseases with a different autoimmune component: juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), the juvenile form of systemic lupus erythematosus, and Kawasaki's disease (KD). Our results showed that the PSMA6 (rs1048990) polymorphism can be a risk factor for JIA (false discovery rate q ≤ 0.090), while PSMA3 (rs2348071) has a tendency to be nonspecific and is shared with JIA and other autoimmune diseases, including KD, an illness with very low autoimmune activity and high autoinflammation.
