摘要
The ability to conduct genetic association studies on a genome-wide scale has revolutionized approaches to reveal the genetic basis of autoimmune diseases. a comparison by Zhernakova and colleagues of the known susceptibility genes in 11 immune-related diseases reveals evidence for shared gene effects and common pathogenetic mechanisms.
