Identification of susceptibility loci for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Asians and functional characterization of the related genes

SLE is a complicated autoimmune disease with a strong genetic basis. Owing to the successful application of genome-wide association study (GWAS) on complex traits, significant progresses have been made in identifying susceptible loci for SLE. So far, more than 30 loci have been shown to have robust...
