Popis: BLK and BANK1 in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) have scarcely been evaluated and the results are inconclusive. The aim of our study was to determine whether single nucleotide variants (SNVs) located within BLK or BANK1 are associated with susceptibility, clinical and serological features, and smoking in pSS. BLK rs13277113A/G, BANK1 rs10516487G/A and rs3733197G/A were genotyped in 203 cases and 424 controls using a TaqMan® SNP genotyping assay. The BLK rs13277113A allele showed association with pSS under the allelic (OR 1.35, p = 0.02), and recessive (OR 1.83, p = 0.003) model, while, BANK1 rs3733197G/A showed association under the dominant model (OR 2.90, p = 0.043). Interactions between BANK1 and BLK genotypes also showed association (OR 2.36, p 0.0001). In addition, BLK rs13277113A/G was associated with protection against arthritis and BANK1 rs10516487G/A with both arthritis and keratoconjunctivitis sicca, meanwhile, BANK1 rs3733197G/A was associated with smoking in patients with pSS. This is the first study to describe an association between BLK and susceptibility to pSS in a Latin-American population. Our data also shows a first evidence of association between interactions of BLK and BANK1 in pSS, and association of BLK and BANK1with arthritis, keratoconjunctivitis sicca and smoking in patients with pSS.
