- Sjogren's disease is a complex autoimmune disease with twelve established susceptibility loci. This genome-wide association study (GWAS) identifies ten novel genome-wide significant (GWS) regions in Sjogren's cases of European ancestry: CD247, NAB1, PTTG1-MIR146A, PRDM1-ATG5, TNFAIP3, XKR6, MAPT-CRHR1, RPTOR-CHMP6-BAIAP6, TYK2, SYNGR1. Polygenic risk scores yield predictability (AUROC = 0.71) and relative risk of 12.08. Interrogation of bioinformatics databases refine the associations, define local regulatory networks of GWS SNPs from the 95% credible set, and expand the implicated gene list to >40. Many GWS SNPs are eQTLs for genes within topologically associated domains in immune cells and/or eQTLs in the main target tissue, salivary glands. The genetic architecture underlying Sjogren's syndrome is not fully understood. Here, the authors perform a genome-wide association study to identify 10 new genetic risk regions, implicating genes involved in immune and salivary gland function.

- Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a complex autoimmune disease with exocrine gland dysfunction leading to substantial morbidity. There are 10 published genetic susceptibility loci.Objectives:Our genome-wide association study (GWAS) aimed to identify additional risk loci of genome-wide significance (GWS; p<5E-08) in European-derived primary SS.Methods:A total of 3232 cases and 17481 controls genotyped on GWAS arrays and 619 cases and 6171 controls genotyped on ImmunoChip (IC) arrays were imputed after quality control. Logistic regression was calculated adjusting for ancestry using the first 4 principal components to identify SS-associated SNPs. GWAS and IC results were meta-analyzed using weighted Z-scores. Bayesian statistics were used to assign posterior probabilities and define credible SNP sets for each locus. Bioinformatic analyses were used to predict functionality.Results:Seven novel loci exceeded GWS in the GWAS analysis:NAB1,MIR146A-PTTG1,XKR6,MAPT-CRHR1,RPTOR-CHMP6-BAIAP2,TYK2andSYNGR1. Meta-analysis with IC data identified three more novel loci exceeding GWS:CD247,PRDM1-ATG5andTNFAIP3. Several additional loci with suggestive association (p<1E-05) were also identified:ADAMTSL2,CGNL1andPHRF1.Several identified loci have reported functional implications in immune regulation and autoimmune disease. In lupus, rs2431697 correlated with rs2431098, which was shown to alterMIR146Aexpression, resulting in type I interferon pathway imbalance. Similarly,TYK2risk association reportedly drives interferon, IL10 and RET signaling pathways.PRDM1encodes Blimp-1, a master regulator of immune cell differentiation.CD247encodes the zeta subunit of the T cell receptor complex.XKR6is implicated in apoptotic cell ingestion.ATG5is also involved in apoptosis, as well as autophagy and antigen presentation.Additional bioinformatics analyses (Haploreg, Regulome DB, ENCODE, etc.) revealed immune-relevant functional implications for each risk locus. The SS-associated credible set included variants downstream ofTNFAIP3in a region reported to abolish looping between an enhancer and theTNFAIP3promoter in lupus and a coding variant that has been shown to alter NF-kB activity and neutrophil extra-cellular traps. The rs2293765 in the 5’ UTR ofNAB1showed evidence of enhancer/promoter activities. The rs2069235 in theSYNGR1locus showed enhancer and transcription start site activities in B and T cells. The rs7210219 in theMAPT-CRHR1locus showed enhancer/promotor activities in various tissues.Conclusion:We have identified ten novel genetic susceptibility loci associated with SS pathology. Our finding increases the current number of GWS regions in SS patients of European origin, from 10 to 20. Future work is needed to identify and characterize the functional variants in each region.Disclosure of Interests:Bhuwan Khatri: None declared, Tove Ragna Reksten: None declared, Kandice L Tessneer: None declared, Astrid Rasmussen Speakers bureau: Novartis, ThermoFischer, R Hal Scofield Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Simon J.
