The pathogenesis of Sjögren's syndrome has not been elucidated. There has been evidence that genetics play an important role in the development of this disease from earlier studies. However, till now only a number of genes have been identified to be associated with SS, and these have only a weak or moderate effect. In this review we summarize the findings of the genetics studies and emphasize the need of large multicenter projects that will increase the sample sizes to provide more meaningful associations, as is the case in other common autoimmune diseases.
