[Variations within OLF1/EBF-associated zinc finger protein gene confer susceptibility to lupus nephritis in Chinese population].

Objective: To observe whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the OLF1/EBF-associated zinc finger protein (OAZ) gene are associated with lupus nephritis (LN) susceptibility in Chinese population.

Methods: Eight SNPs located around the positive microsatellite marker D16S517 within OAZ gene with relatively high heterozygosity were chosen for genotyping on 184 systemic lupus erythromatosus (SLE) patients, including 101 non-LN patients and 83 LN patients, and 286 normal controls using TaqMan MGB allelic discrimination method. Data were collected by SDS 2.
