In Asian and South American individuals, a link between the MHC region on chromosome 6p21 and vitiligo has been observed.6,11 HLA class I and II-related genes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of vitiligo.13,14 Fine mapping of HLA by imputation identified amino acid alterations at residues 135 and 4546 for HLA-DQB1 and HLA-B, respectively, as strong risk factors for vitiligo in the Chinese population.15 Moreover, a promoter variant that increases HLA-A*02:01 expression has been associated with common vitiligo.16 Three loci, at 1p31.3 p32.2, 7q21.11, and 8p12, have been linked to vitiligo susceptibility in Europeans and one in Asian populations at 4q13-q21.1719 Of these, FOXD3 has been suggested as the causal gene candidate for 1p31.3 p32.2 and PDGFRA for 4q13-q21, while no candidate gene has been suggested for the two remaining loci
