Its occurrence is caused by genetic factors and environmental factors. It has been reported that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 2 (PCSK2) gene are associated with HSCR. However, the correlation of HSCR in southern Chinese population is still unclear.Methods: We assessed the association of rs16998727 with HSCR susceptibility in southern Chinese children using TaqMan SNP genotyping analysis of 2943 samples, including 1470 HSCR patients and 1473 controls. The association test between rs16998727 and phenotypes was performed using multivariable logistic regression analysis.Results: We got an unexpected result, PCSK2 SNP rs16998727 was not significantly different from HSCR and its HSCR subtypes: S-HSCR (OR = 1.08, 95% IC: 0.93~1.27, P_adj = 0.3208), L-HSCR (OR = 1.07, 95% IC: 0.84~1.36, P_adj = 0.5958) and TCA (OR = 0.94, 95% IC: 0.61~1.47, P_adj = 0.8001).Conclusion: In summary, we report that rs16998727 (PCSK2 and OTOR) is not associated with the risk of HSCR in southern Chinese population.Keywords: Hirschsprung’s disease, HSCR, single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 2, PCSK2, genetic susceptibility
