Examination of five SNPs in the CTLA4 gene (rs1863800, rs231775, rs3087243, rs11571302, rs11571297, rs10932037) in the same 126 families yielded no evidence of allelic or genotypic association with either generalized vitiligo or the expanded autoimmune phenotype.
The first study, of SNPs rs1863800, rs231806, rs231775, rs3087243, rs11571302, rs11571297, and rs10932037, showed no allelic, genotypic, or haplotypic association with generalized vitiligo.
Our study found that ICOS rs1559931 SNP was associated with decreased HBV-related HCC risk in the studied Chinese Han population, except for patients with natural clearance of HBV.
We selected <i>inducible T cell costimulator</i> (<i>ICOS</i>) rs4404254 T>C, rs10932029 T>C, <i>CD28</i> rs3116496 T>C and <i>CD80</i> rs7628626 C>A SNPs and assessed the potential relationship of these SNPs with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk.
We hypothesize that there is a significant interethnic diversity in the CD14 (rs2569190), CD28 (rs35593994), CTLA-4 (rs5742909) and ICOS (rs4404254) gene polymorphisms among and between SCD groups.
The CC genotype of rs4675379 was higher in patients with HBV infection (including AC, CHB, LC and HCC) than in patients with HBV clearance (P = 0.006).
Our findings suggest that rs7628626, rs13505, rs4404254, rs1559931, and rs4675379, through disrupting the regulatory role of miRNAs in the expression of B7/CD28 molecules, contribute to the occurrence and progress of colorectal cancer.

We investigated a family with CVID and identified the heterozygous C104R TNFRSF13B mutation in two of the three index-children with CVID, a mother with selective immunoglobulin A deficiency, a mother with recurrent infections and a healthy grandfather.
Moreover, the constellation of alleles CTLA-4c.49A>G[A]/CT60[G]/CD28c.17+3T>C[T]/ICOSc.1554+4GT(8_15)[>10] increased the risk of NSCLC about 2-fold (p = 0.002).
We found that <i>ICOS</i> rs10932029 T>C polymorphism might increase the risk of HCC in male, ≥53 years, never smoking, never drinking and non-chronic HBV infection subgroups.
In rs10932029, compared with TT genotype and T allele, the CT genotype and C allele showed a significantly increased risk of breast cancer (P = 0.030, OR = 1.467, 95% CI 1.037-2.077; P = 0.017, OR = 1.481, 95% CI 1.070-2.049, respectively), and the associations were also significant in the validation cohort (P = 0.002, OR = 1.693, 95% CI 1.211-2.357; P = 0.003, OR = 1.607, 95% CI 1.171-2.204, respectively).
