| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: To determine whether copy number variations (CNVs) in FCGR3A and FCGR3B are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Taiwanese individuals. METHODS: FCGR3A and FCGR3B CNV genotypes were determined in 846 patients with SLE, 948 patients with RA, and 1,420 healthy control subjects, using custom TaqMan CNV assays. The FCGR3A and FCGR3B CNV genotypes were compared between healthy control subjects and patients and among patients stratified according to clinical characteristics. RESULTS: A low (<2) FCGR3A copy number was significantly associated with SLE (for <2 copies versus 2 copies, P = 5.06 × 10(-4) , false discovery rate-corrected P [PFDR ] = 0.001, odds ratio [OR] 3.26, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.68-6.35) and RA (for <2 copies versus 2 copies, P = 5.83 × 10(-4) , PFDR = 0.0012, OR 2.82, 95% CI 1.56-5.1). A low FCGR3B copy number was also significantly associated with SLE (for <2 copies versus 2 copies, P = 0.0032, PFDR = 0.0032, OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.17-2.18). Notably, a high (>2) FCGR3A copy number was also associated with SLE (for >2 copies versus 2 copies, P = 0.003, PFDR = 0.0061, OR 1.6, 95% CI 1.17-2.18). Additionally, the FCGR3A low copy number genotype was significantly enriched in subsets of patients with SLE (those with ulcer, arthritis, rash, discoid rash, photosensitivity, nephritis, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, depressed complement levels, and autoantibody positivity) and patients with RA (those positive for rheumatoid factor) compared with healthy control subjects. The FCGR3B low copy number genotype was also significantly enriched in SLE patients with ulcer, rash, discoid rash, photosensitivity, ascites, nephritis, complement level depression, and anti-double-stranded DNA antibody positivity compared with control subjects. However, FCGR3B CNVs were not associated with RA susceptibility (for <2 copy numbers versus 2 copy numbers, P = 0.3584, OR 1.15, 95% CI 0.85-1.55) and clinical characteristics. CONCLUSION: In Taiwanese individuals, a low FCGR3A copy number is a common risk factor for SLE and RA, while a low FCGR3B copy number confers a risk of SLE but not RA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
