The risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is partially determined by genetic and environmental factors. Many published candidate gene studies show conflicting results due to ethnic differences and sample sizes. The number of these studies carried out in Chinese populations is small. To investigate candidate genes and haplotypes for susceptibility to COPD in a southern Han Chinese population, we performed genotyping of DNA samples in 200 COPD patients and 250 control subjects by analyzing 54 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 23 genes associated with the development of COPD and/or pulmonary function identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We also performed linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype analysis according to the results of genotyping. The frequencies of the SNP [rs3749893 of testis-specific protein Y-encoded-like 4 (TSPYL-4) gene] G allele and SNP [rs1052443 of 5'-nucleotidase domain containing 1 (NT5DC1) gene] A allele were significantly higher in the cases studied compared to the control subjects (P=0.032, P
