ANXA11 and sarcoidosis: Second, a wide range of genetic variants have been previously identified by association studies in genes that may play a role in the pathogenesis of sarcoidosis, such as HLA-DP, BTNL2, Annexin A11, Toll-like receptors, CCDC88B (coiled-coil domain containing protein 88B), Ataxin/SH2B adapter protein 3, IL12B and NF-kappa-B p105 subunit [9, 29, 30].
