Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary disorder characterized by loss of epidermal melanocytes. A strong association at a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs11966200 within MHC region had been identified in a recent genome-wide association study of generalized vitiligo in Chinese Han population. This study aims to investigate the relationships between SNP rs11966200 and the clinical features of generalized vitiligo in Chinese Han population. We compared the allele and genotype frequency among different vitiligo subphenotypes including age onset, extent of disease, clinical subtypes, family history of vitiligo and history of autoimmune disease. Our data showed SNP rs11966200 was associated with early-onset vitiligo (onset age ≤ 20 years) (odds ratio [OR], 1.54; p = 2.01 × 10(-13)), moderate-severe vitiligo (involved body surface ≥ 5 %) (OR, 1.17; p = 0.025), vitiligo vulgaris (OR, 1.13; p = 0.043), and focal vitiligo (OR, 0.86; p = 0.018). The study suggested that the underlying risk causal allele tagged by SNP rs11966200 might not only play important roles in the development of vitiligo, but also contribute to the diverse clinical characteristics of generalized vitiligo at least in Chinese Han population.
