Autoimmune Disease Genetics Research Projects

Four Diseases Share One Gene: RA, SLE, Type 1 Diabetes and Autoimmune

Thyroid Disease Linked.

A single gene, called PTPN22, is the first major genetic marker to be

identified as carrying an overlapping risk for four different forms of

autoimmune disease: rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus

erythematosus (SLE), type 1 diabetes and both major types of

autoimmune thyroid disease — Graves' and Hashimoto's.
