153 donors and 153 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia who had undergone allogeneic HSCT were genotyped of CTLA-4 gene for rs3087243 (CT60G>A), rs231775 (+ 49 A>G) and rs4553808 using TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction.

M55V variant of SUMO4 was significantly associated with type 1 diabetes in Asians, but genetic heterogeneity between Asian and Caucasian populations was suggested.
A case-control study was performed to establish a potential association of 5 CTLA4 gene promoter single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs733618, rs11571316, rs5742909, rs231775, and rs16840252) with the occurrence of LF in an East Malaysian population (320 LF-infected individuals and 150 healthy controls).
A number of studies have identified Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) as a candidate gene for MG. Several recent reports have indicated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CTLA-4, including rs733618, rs4553808, rs5742909, rs231775, and rs3087243 were associated with the risks of MG; however, the results were not consistent.
A recent study by our working group revealed that the rs231775 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the CTLA-4 gene was associated with the survival of patients with sepsis and served as an independent prognostic variable.

A significant association was found between the CTLA-4 CT60 polymorphism (rs3087243) and GD, with regard to comparisons between allele and genotype frequencies (all p < 0.001).
