Objectives. A polymorphism of APRIL, c.199G > A (Gly67Arg), has been reported to be associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Japanese. To identify the causative polymorphism, we screened for polymorphisms of APRIL as well as TWEAK (TNFSF12), a closely located gene that generates a fusion protein TWE-PRIL by intergenic splicing. Association of APRIL and TWEAK with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was examined in parallel.
