Objective

The SLC44A4 gene was recently reported to be associated with ulcerative colitis (UC) susceptibility in the Indian and Japanese populations. The aim of our study was to investigate the association of common variants within the SLC44A4 gene and the susceptibility to UC among the Han Chinese.

Methods

We examined 16 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the SLC44A4 gene in a Han Chinese population that consisted of 311 UC patients and 675 healthy controls; both SNP and haplotypic association analyses were performed.

Results

We found that rs2736428 was significantly associated with UC risk (allelic p = 0.0004), and the CT and TT genotypes of rs2736428 had a higher distribution compared with the CC genotypes (genotypic p = 0.001), suggesting that the T allele was a risk allele (odds ratio = 1.45, 95% confidence interval = 1.18-1.78). Moreover, one haplotype block that included rs2736428 was found to be strongly associated with UC risk as well (global p < 0.001).

Conclusion

Our results provide further supportive evidence for an important role of the SLC44A4 gene in the pathogenesis of UC."xsd:string
