Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the association between the FCRL5 gene (rs6427384 and rs12036228) single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) and patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods SNP of FCRL5 gene (rs6427384 and rs12036228) was analyzed in 169 patients with AS and 184 healthy controls by ligase detection reaction based on high temperature(LDR)-PCR. The distribution of FCRL5 genotypes and allele frequencies were detected between the two groups. Chi-square test, one-way ANOVA were used for statistical analysis. ResultsSignificant differences were found in the distribution of allele frequencies of FCRL5 gene between AS patients and health controls(P＜0.05). The C allele frequencies of FCRL5 gene at positions of rs6427384 and rs12036228 were 17.3％, 92.3％ and 25.0％, 87.2％ respectively in the AS group and the control group. And the T allele frequencies of rs6427384 and rs12036228 were 82.7％, 7.7％ and 75.0％, 12.8％ in the AS group and the control group. The percentages of CC, CT and TT genotype(rs6427384) were 3.7％, 27.2％, and 69.1％ in the AS group, which were significantly different from those of the control group(3.9％, 42.2％ and 53.9％ ) (x2=8.7637, P=0.0125 ). Staging of sacroiliitis in X ray were significantly different during AS patients whose genotype represented as CC, CT and TT (rs6427384)(x2=34.159, P=0.0001 ). Incidences of the initial symptoms (low back pain or inflammation of periphery joint)in the AS group were obviously differed among patients with different genotypes (rs6427384) (x2=7.254, P=0.027), so did the mean duration of morning stiffness (F=4.159, P=0.018) and the average scores of BASDAI (F=4.461, P=0.014). Incidences of the initial symptoms in the AS group were also conspicuously different between the AS patients with different genotypes (rs 12036228 ) (x2=6.640, P=0.036 ). ConclusionOur study suggests that the SNP(rs6427384 and rs12036228) of FCRL5 may be a susceptibility factor for AS in Anhui Han population and the genotype may influence the clinical phenotype of AS.
