PURPOSE: Our aims were to evaluate protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene polymorphisms in ulcerative colitis (UC) and explore PTPN22 mRNA levels in colonic biopsies of UC patients in central China. METHODS: A total of 165 Chinese UC patients and 300 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. PTPN22 -1123G/C, +1858C/T, and +788G/A polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. PTPN22 mRNA expressions in colonic biopsies and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were determined by quantitative PCR and immunonephelometry, respectively. RESULTS: The frequency of C carrier was higher in UC patients than in healthy controls (66.7 vs. 53.3%, P = 0.005, odds ratios = 1.75, 95% CI 1.18-2.60) and associated with extensive colitis (P = 0.029). PTPN22 mRNA levels were elevated in UC patients than in healthy controls (P < 0.001). Among UC patients, PTPN22 mRNA expression levels were higher in biopsies of inflamed colonic tissue compared with noninflamed tissue (P < 0.001) and were correlated with CRP levels (r = 0.578, P < 0.001). PTPN22 mRNA expression levels were elevated in extensive colitis compared to proctitis (P = 0.008) and to left-sided colitis (P = 0.029) and were higher in moderate and severe disease than in mild disease (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: Our study showed the potential association between PTPN22 -1123G/C polymorphism and UC in central China. PTPN22 mRNA levels were highly expressed in UC, especially in active disease, and were correlated with CRP levels, disease location, and disease severity in UC patients.
