    ABSTRACT: Purpose Identify genes associated with ocular sarcoidosis (OS). Methods We genotyped 1.1 million genetic variants to identify significant OS associations, defined as those that achieved p<5×10−8 in a genome-wide comparison of OS cases to healthy controls in our European- or African-American cohorts (EA, AA). Potential functional roles of all associated variants were assessed. Results Eight significant non-HLA variants were found in AA OS cases compared to healthy controls and confirmed as at least suggestive when comparing OS to non-OS cases. Seven of these were within MAGI1 and include transcription factor binding sites and expression quantitative trait loci. Our EA cohort, while showing similar effect sizes at variants within MAGI1, had no significant variants. Association a
