Richard Spritz and colleagues present a genome-wide association study of autoimmune vitiligo in 4,680 cases and 39,586 controls and report 23 new risk loci. Their results highlight specific pathways, including immune response, apoptosis and melanocyte function, that may be important in the pathobiology of autoimmune vitiligo.
