Objective

To present a systematic evaluation of 47 non-MHC ankylosing spondylitis (AS) susceptibility loci that have been initially discovered through white genome-wide association studies in Han Chinese.

Methods

Originally, 10,743 samples representing north and south Chinese in 4 datasets were obtained. After data quality control and imputation, metaanalysis results of 94,621 variants within 47 loci were extracted. Four ERAP1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and HLA-B27 tag SNP rs13202464 were used for interaction analysis. Population-attributable risk percentages of AS-associated variants were compared. Functional annotations of AS-associated variants were conducted using HaploReg, RegulomeDB, and rVarBase databases.

Results

We revealed 16 AS-associated variants with nominal evidence in Han Chinese, including rs10865331 (p = 6.30 × 10-10), rs10050860 (p = 4.09 × 10-5) and rs8070463 (p = 1.03 × 10-4). Potential susceptible SNP within these 47 loci were also identified, such as rs13024541 (2p15), rs17401719 (5q15), and rs62074054 (17q21). Epistatic interactions between 3 ERAP1 SNP (rs17401719, rs30187, and rs10050860) and HLA-B27 were confirmed. Among the 16 AS-associated variants, rs30187 showed weaker risk effect, while rs10050860 and rs12504282 seemed to attribute more risk in Han Chinese than in whites. Further genomic annotation pinpointed 35 candidate functional SNP, especially in the 2p15, ERAP1, and NPEPPS-TBKBP1 regions.

Conclusion

Our results provided a detailed spectrum of all the reported non-MHC AS susceptibility loci in Han Chinese, which comprehensively exhibited the ethnic heterogeneity of AS susceptibility and highlighted that 2p15, ERAP1, and NPEPPS-TBKBP1 regions may play a critical role in AS pathogenesis across diverse populations."xsd:string
