BLK and systemic sclerosis: Three SNPs in the coding regions of the RHOB and FAM167A-BLK genes displayed an association with SSc: (1) rs1062292T, which is a newly discovered SNP in the RHOB gene (P = 0.03, odds ratio [OR] = 1.62, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.05–2.50), (2) rs2736340T (P = 0.03, OR = 1.39, 95%CI = 1.03–1.85), and (3) rs13277113A (P = 0.04, OR = 1.34, 95%CI = 1.01–1.76), both in the FAM167A-BLK gene.
