We had previously shown rs3118470 to confer T1D susceptibility in a Canadian dataset, independently of rs41295061 as the major reported locus (p = 5 x 10(-3), after accounting for rs41295061 by conditional regression).
Previous investigations have also demonstrated that two intronic SNPs (rs706778 and rs3118470) in the interleukin-2 receptor-alpha (IL2RA) gene were associated with type 1 diabetes in the Japanese population.

We genotyped the five SNPs (rs12760457, rs2797415, rs1310182, rs2476599, and rs3789604) of the PTPN22 and the two SNPs (rs706778 and rs3118470 in the IL2RA gene) in 456 Japanese patients with AITD (286 with GD, 170 with Hashimoto's thyroiditis) and 221 matched Japanese control subjects.

Genome-wide association studies have identified an association between two intronic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs12722489 and rs2104286, in the interleukin-2 receptor alpha-chain gene (IL2RA) and susceptibility to multiple sclerosis (MS).

Here we show that MS risk modulators converge to alter N-glycosylation and/or CTLA-4 surface retention conditional on metabolism and vitamin D(3), including genetic variants in interleukin-7 receptor-α (IL7RA*C), interleukin-2 receptor-α (IL2RA*T), MGAT1 (IV(A)V(T-T)) and CTLA-4 (Thr17Ala).
