Our results on selected candidate genes in conferring oxidative stress and autoimmunity suggest that HLA-A*33:01, HLA-A*02:01,HLA-B*44:03, HLA-DRB1*07:01 and a few studied polymorphisms in IL4, CTLA4, SOD2, SOD3, GPX1, NALP1, MYG1, TNFA, TNFB, IFNG and IL10 genes are strongly associated with vitiligo susceptibility, whereas a few studied polymorphisms in PTPN22, MBL2, ACE, CAT, G6PD and SOD1 genes are not found to be significantly associated with Gujarat vitiligo patients. This evidence concerns the gene SOD1 and vitiligo.
