  •   Objective  To investigate the association between FCGR3A gene polymorphisms and the risk of ulcerative colitis (UC), disease location, and clinicopathological features related to disease activity.  Methods  From January 2012 to January 2021, 545 UC patients and 545 age- and gender-matched healthy controls were recruited from the Department of Gastroenterology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. The modified Mayo score was employed to assess the disease activity of UC. The FCGR3A polymorphisms (rs396991 and rs4656317) were genotyped using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Haplotype analysis and linkage disequilibrium assessment were performed with Haploview 4.2 software.  Results  Genotype analysis revealed that the frequency of the C allele at rs396991 was significantly higher in UC patients than in healthy controls (P=0.025), and the frequencies of the C allele and its carriers at rs4656317 were also markedly elevated (both P < 0.001). The frequencies of the variant allele and genotype of rs396991 in patients with moderate-to-severe active UC were both higher than those in patients with mild active UC (P=0.012 and P=0.032, respectively). The rs4656317 and rs396991 loci of theFCGR3A gene exhibited strong linkage disequilibrium (D'=0.920, r2=0.667). Haplotype analysis demonstrated that the frequencies of AG (P=0.003) and CG (P=0.006) haplotypes were decreased, while those of CC (P=0.002) and AC (P=0.005) haplotypes were increased in the UC group; furthermore, the AG haplotype was downregulated and the CC haplotype was upregulated in moderate-to-severe active UC patients (P=0.032 and 0.003, respectively).  Conclusion  FCGR3A (rs396991, rs4656317) gene variations may be risk factors for UC. In addition, FCGR3A (rs396991) gene variation may also be related to the increased disease activity in UC patients.
