Evidence in favor of association with T1D was obtained for SNPs in PTPN22 (rs6679677 p = 4.5 × 10-4, rs2476601 p = 4.5 × 10-4), CD247 (rs6668182 p = 0.007, rs2988276 p = 3.8 × 10-5, rs7523351 p = 0.012, rs10918695 p = 0.006, rs12144621 p = 0.036, rs863455 p = 0.025, rs704852 p = 0.029), HLA-DRB1 (rs9270986 p = 1.8x10-6) and INS (rs1004446 p = 0.011, rs6356 p = 0.020, rs7111341 p = 0.021). Here, HLA-DRB1 is linked to type 1 diabetes mellitus.
