It was previously reported that a signal led by rs1883832[T] in the 5’ untranslated region of CD40 increases the expression of CD27 on memory B cell subsets, which overlaps with increased risk of various autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease, and SLE (24). The gene discussed is CD27; the disease is autoimmune disease.
