A functional variant located in the promoter region of the Fc receptor like 3 gene (FCRL3, -169CT variant) has been recently shown to be associated with several autoimmune diseases in the Japanese population. Following the concept of shared genetic determinants between autoimmune diseases, we tested this variant for association to Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and T1D-related phenotypes in two independent settings: a family-based association study (French and US families) and a case-control study (French population). We found suggestive evidence for association of the FCRL3 -169CC genotype, corresponding to the susceptibility genotype for rheumatoid arthritis, with an increased risk of additional autoimmunity markers (OR=1.
