Tumor-associated FUT3 promoter polymorphism rs2306969 (-6951 C> T, position related to the gene's translation start site) has been linked to breast, ovarian and intestinal gastric cancer.
A luciferase reporter assay was performed using two breast tumor cell lines to evaluate respectively the impact of FUT3 rs2306969 (-6951 CC) and (-6951 TT) on protein expression.

Stratified analyses revealed that the frequencies of mutant allele (G) and genotype (TG+GG) of FUT3 (rs28362459) were significantly lower in patients with extensive colitis than those with distal colitis (P<0.001, 95%CI: 0.503-0.742; P = 0.001, 95%CI: 0.567-0.786, respectively).

Similar conclusions were drawn for the mutant allele (A) and genotype (GA+AA) of FUT3 (rs3745635) in patients with extensive colitis compared to those with distal colitis (P = 0.006, 95%CI: 0.553-0.845; P = 0.011, 95%CI: 0.621-0.900, respectively).

The frequencies of mutant allele (A) and genotype (GA+AA) in FUT3 (rs3745635) were higher in UC patients than controls (P = 0.016, 95%CI: 1.339-1.699; P = 0.038, 95%CI: 1.330-1.742, respectively).
We investigated the effect of inactivating mutations in the secretor FUT2 (rs601338) and Lewis FUT3 genes (rs28362459, rs3894326, rs812936 and rs778986) on serum IgG antibody titers and neutralizing antibody titers to rotavirus strains of the P[8] and P[6] genotypes in Swedish healthy blood donors and patients with IgA deficiency using genotyping, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and a neutralization assay.

Our results suggest that minor allele T of SNP rs73920070 (-6933 C>T) confers protection whereas minor allele T of SNP rs2306969 (-6951 C>T) triggers to susceptibility to IDC in the population of Pernambuco state, Northeast of Brazil.

In a multivariable model controlling for age, sex, alcohol intake, pack-years of smoking, ratio of total to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and diabetes mellitus, ORs (95% CI) for prevalent atherothrombotic disease were 1.0 (reference), 0.80 (0.46-1.41), and 6.70 (1.95-23.01) for TT, TG, and GG genotypes of the T59G SNP, respectively.
