Genome-wide association study has reported a number of genes as being associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in Caucasian European populations and Chinese Han population. The aim of the study was to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) covering the21q22region are associated with AS in the Chinese Guangxi Zhuang population. A case–control study was performed in unrelated patients with AS (n= 315) and age-, sex-, and ethnicity-matched controls (n= 630) from Guangxi Zhuang ethnic group. All patients met the modified New York criteria for AS. TaqMan genotyping assay was used to genotype cases and controls for 17 tag SNPs covering21q22. After multiple-testing correction, significant association with AS was not observed in all SNP, but one block haplotype was significantly associated with AS. The pairwise analysis of the rs8126528/rs2150414/rs6517532 alleles found that the G-A-A haplotype (OR 2.92, 95 % CI 1.48–3.55;p= 0.0002, permutedp= 0.0332) significantly increased the risk of AS in comparison with the G-A-G, A-A-A and G-G-A carriers. In conclusion, the study results define a novel risk haplotypes in21q22that was associated with AS in the Chinese Guangxi Zhuang population. The findings was consistent with previous genetic and functional studies that point at variants of the BRWD1 and/or PSMG1 loci as interesting genetic factors contributing to AS.
