Objective:
To investigate the interaction of the polymorphisms of cyclooxygenase-2-1195G/A (COX-2-1195G/A) and manganese superoxide dismutase 9Ala/Val (MnSOD9Ala/Val) genes and the high-fat diets and its potential correlation with ulcerative colitis (UC).
Methods:
The genetic polymorphisms of COX-2-1195G/A and MnSOD9Ala/Val were analyzed by polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in peripheral blood leukocytes obtained from 750 UC patients (UC group) and 750 healthy subjects (control group).
Results:
The frequencies of COX-2-1195G/A(A/A) and MnSOD9Ala/Val(V/V) were 49.07% and 50.13% in UC group and 21.20% and 22.40% in control group, respectively (P<0.01). The risk of UC significantly increased in subjects with COX-2-1195G/A(A/A) genotype (OR=3.5808,95%CI=1.8062-5.3478) and in those with MnSOD9Ala/Val(V/V) genotype(OR=3.4828,95%CI=1.9137-5.5496). Pooled analysis of the polymorphisms showed that distribution frequency of COX-2-1195G/A(A/A)/MnSOD9Ala/Val (V/V) was 40.67% in UC group and 8.40% in control group (P<0.01). Subjects with COX-2-1195G/A(A/A)/MnSOD9Ala/Val(V/V) had a significantly higher risk of UC (OR=7.5655,95% CI=4.1849-11.2037). The rate of high-fat diets was significantly higher in the UC group than in the control group(49.73 vs.20.13%,P<0.01),and statistic analysis suggested an interaction between high-fat diet and COX-2-1195G/A(A/A)(Γ=11.81821)and MnSOD9Ala/Val (V/V)(Γ=9.0107), which increase risk of UC.
Conclusions:
COX-2-1195G/A(A/A),MnSOD9Ala/Val (V/V), and high-fat diet are the risk factors of UC. The interaction between the genetic polymorphisms of COX-2-1195G/A and MnSOD9Ala/Val and the high-fat diet increases the risk of UC.

Peptic Ulcer Disease II: Pathophysiology
Damaging agents such as Helicobacter pylori, gastric acid, pepsin, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can weaken the mucosal defense, allowing hydrogen ions to infiltrate back and harm epithelial cells.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
