Abstract
⺠Associations between variants of APE1 and the risk of vitiligo were investigated. ⺠The SNP rs3136820 was significantly associated with the risk of vitiligo. ⺠The Glu variant interacted with higher 8-OHdG levels in the deleterious effects. ⺠The Glu variant increases oxidative DNA damage and influences the risk of vitiligo.
