This study intends to investigate the links between gene polymorphisms in the interleukin-23 receptor (<i>IL23R</i>) and interleukin 17A (<i>IL17A</i>) and susceptibility to RA in the Western Chinese Han population. Four SNPs (rs6693831 T &gt; C, rs1884444 G &gt; T, and rs7517847 T &gt; G in <i>IL23R</i> gene, and rs2275913 G &gt; A in <i>IL17A</i> gene) were genotyped in 246 RA patients and 362 healthy controls by high resolution melting analysis. The comparative analyses among genotype distributions, clinical indicators, and IL-17A and IL-23R levels in RA patients were also performed. The study revealed that the SNP rs6693831 and rs1884444 of <i>IL23R</i> had a significant association with RA susceptibility. The frequencies of rs6693831 genotype CC and allele C were significantly higher in the RA group and associated with higher RA risk compared with genotype TT and allele T (OR = 7.797, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 4.072–14.932 and OR = 5.984, 95%CI = 3.190–11.224, respectively).

This single-centre study comprised 125 adult patients with malignant haematological diseases undergoing their first UD-HSCT. The primary goal of this study was to validate the impact of HLA matching on HSCT outcomes, specifically at the HLA-DPB1 and HLA-DRB3/4/5 loci. A multivariable Cox regression analysis with a backward selection algorithm was employed to assess the associations of selected prognostic factors with outcomes after UD-HSCT. Any HLA locus mismatch was found to be associated with an increased incidence of grade II–IV acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD) at 100 days (<i>p</i> = .031; hazard ratio [HR] 1.935) and 6 months (<i>p</i> = .004; HR 2.284) after HSCT. The results of the following analyses also confirmed the strong impact of HLA-DPB1-only mismatch on the incidence of grade II–IV aGvHD at 100-day (<i>p</i> = .006; HR 2.642) as well as at 6-month (<i>p</i> = .007; HR 2.401) time periods. The HLA-DPB1-only mismatch was also shown to be statistically significantly associated with lower relapse incidence (<i>p</i> = .034; HR 0.333). The impact of the HLA-DRB3/4/5 mismatch on outcomes was inconclusive, though the two and more HLA-DPB1 + DRB3/4/5-only mismatches showed a trend towards worse outcomes than a single mismatch.

Presently, there is a lack of data about the distribution of LILRA3 gene deletion in more diverse ethnic groups. Also, no previous studies have investigated the correlation between copy number variation (CNV) of LILRA3 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). In this study, five populations from China mainland: two Southern Han populations, Hunan (N = 1478) and Guandong (N = 107); one Southeastern Han population, Fujian (N = 439); and two Northern populations, Inner Mongolia Han (N = 104) and Mongol population from Inner Mongolia (N = 158) were investigated for CNV of LILRA3 using polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific priming (PCR-SSP) method.
