Methods：The Pro12Ala polymorphism in PPARγ2 was determined by polymerase chain reactionrestriction fragment length polymorphism (PCRRELP) in 177 subjects with primary hypertension of the Han people in Chengdu of China, including 65 subjects with fasting blood glucose (FBG)lt;5.6 mmol/L and 112 subjects with FBG≥5.6 mmol/L; the clinical characteristics including height, weight, OGTT(0h and 2h) of the subjects were detected and the realationship between the Pro12Ala polymorphism and the clinical characteristics were analysed. Results: The allele frequencies in the group with FBGlt;5.6 mmol/L and FBG≥5.6 mmol/L were 0.333, 0.602 for Pro and 0.034, 0.031 for Ala. The genotype frequencies were 0.299, 0.571 for PP and 0.068, 0.062 for PA, and there was no AA. In the group with BMIlt;25, the Pro12Ala polymorphism was associated with FBG （P=0.029). the Ala allele had a negative relationship to the FPG and insulin resistance index (IRI) (Plt;0.05).Conclusion: The data showed that the Pro12Ala polymorphism was associated with FBG., and The allele Ala probably had benefits to glycometabolic disturbance in patients with primary hypertension by declining insulin resistance.
ObjectiveTo explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the X-ray cross complementary repair gene-1 (XRCC1) rs1799782 locus and thyroid cancer.MethodsStudies investigating the association between SNP in the XRCC1 gene and thyroid cancer susceptibility were retrieved from the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure), Wanfang, and CBM (China Biology Medicine) databases (published date up to February 15, 2021). Eligible studies were screened according to inclusion/exclusion criteria and principles of quality evaluation. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 14.0 software. Odds ratios with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were pooled to assess the association between SNP in the XRCC1 gene rs1799782 locus and thyroid cancer susceptibility.ResultsTwelve articles were eligible for this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis results were shown as follows: No significant association was found between XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism and thyroid cancer in overall population [Dominant model: CT+TT vs CC, OR=1.07, 95%CI (0.84, 1.36). Recessive model: TT vs CT+CC, OR=1.48, 95%CI (0.95, 2.31). Allelic model: T vs C, OR=1.15, 95%CI (0.93, 1.43). Codominant model: TT vs CC: OR=1.44, 95%CI (0.83, 2.53); CT vs CC, OR=1.02, 95%CI (0.82, 1.28); TT vs CT, OR=1.40, 95%CI (0.98, 1.99)]. rs1799782 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of thyroid cancer in Chinese population [Dominant model: CT+TT vs CC, OR=1.38, 95%CI (1.11, 1.71). Recessive model : TT vs CT+CC, OR=1.97, 95%CI (1.55, 2.50); Allelic model: T vs C, OR=1.40, 95%CI (1.16, 1.68). Codominant model: TT vs CC, OR=2.12, 95%CI (1.66, 2.71); CT vs CC, OR=1.26, 95%CI (1.09, 1.47); TT vs CT, OR=1.70, 95%CI (1.31, 2.21)]. rs1799782 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of thyroid cancer in Asian population [Dominant model: CT+TT vs CC, OR=0.64, 95%CI (0.49, 0.83). Codominant model: TT vs CC: OR=0.50, 95%CI (0.33, 0.74); CT vs CC, OR=0.65, 95%CI (0.49, 0.86)].ConclusionsThere is no significant correlation between XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism and the risk of thyroid cancer in general population. The XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism may be associated with an increased thyroid cancer risk among Chinese, and a tendency for decreased thyroid cancer risk among Asians (Chinese excluded). The XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism is not associated with thyroid cancer susceptibility among Caucasians under all genetic models.
Objectives To investigate the frequency of LTC4S A-444C polymorphism in Chinese Han population in Beijing and to evaluate its association with susceptibility to asthma，asthma severity and clinical response to leukotriene receptor antagonist.Methods The LTC4S A-444C polymorphism was analyzed in 101 patients with asthma and 105 healthy controls.Then 18 asthmatics were recruited，and a 2-week prospective，open trial of montelukast was performed in addition to the previous medications.Results In the asthma group，the frequencies of A and C allele at -444 locus of LTC4S gene were 81.0% and 19.0%，respectively，and genotype frequencies of AA，AC and CC were 65.4%，30.5% and 3.8%，respectively.There was no significant difference in LTC4S A-444C polymorphism between the asthmatics and healthy controls（Pgt;0.05）.The asthmatics with the C-444 allele had significantly lower forced expiratory volume in one second（FEV1） than wild-type A homozygotes [（58.6±21.6）% predicted vs （70.3±22.4）% predicted，Plt;0.05）].A correlation was observed between the variant C-444 allele and asthma severity（Plt;0.05）.After administered montelukast 1 week，the A-444 allele homozygotes（n=9） responded better than the C（-444） allele carriers（n=7）[（10.8±10.2）% vs （–9.8±16.2）% improvement of FEV1，Plt;0.05].After 2 weeks，the A-444 allele hemozygotes also responded better，although there was no statistical difference（Pgt;0.05）.Conclusion In Chinese Han population LTC4S A-444C polymorphism is associated with asthma severity and probably contributes to the clinical response to leukotriene receptor antagonists.
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the gene polymorphism of autophagy-related gene 3 (ATG3) and the development and clinical symptoms of tuberculosis in tuberculosis patients in western China.MethodsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 476 tuberculosis patients (tuberculosis group) who were admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University from December 2014 to November 2015 and 475 healthy controls (healthy control group) who underwent health examination during the same period were finally included. High-throughput genotyping technology was used to detect genotypes of three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs2638029, rs2638037, rs3732817) of ATG3 gene, and relevant clinical data of subjects were collected. The relationship between gene polymorphism and susceptibility to tuberculosis and clinical symptoms was analyzed by statistical methods such as χ2 test and logistic regression model.ResultsExcept for GA genotype [odds ratio (OR) =1.375, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.048, 1.805), P=0.022] and dominant genetic model GG+GA [OR=1.326, 95%CI (1.024, 1.717), P=0.032] in rs2638037, there was no statistically significant difference in the allele frequency, genotype and genetic patterns of rs2638029, rs3732817 and rs2638037 between the two groups (P>0.05), after the adjustment of the gender and age. But after correction by Bonferroni, GA genotype and dominant genetic patterns GG+GA showed no statistical significance between the two groups (P=0.132, 0.201). Haplotype CGA was associated with tuberculosis susceptibility [OR=1.262, 95%CI (1.001,1.593), P=0.048]. There was a statistically significant difference in weight loss symptoms among rs2638037 genotypes (χ2=8.131, P=0.017).ConclusionsThe haplotype CGA of three SNPs of ATG3 gene may be involved in the development of tuberculosis. The rs2638037 single nucleotide polymorphism may be related to weight loss, and more research is needed in the future.
Objective To explore the correlation between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promotor of hepatic l ipase (HL) gene and untraumatic avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH). Methods Between January 2007 and June 2009, 243 patients with ANFH were treated (case group), including 143 cases of steroid-induced, 79 cases of alchol-induced, and 21 cases of idiopathic. There were 156 males and 87 females with an age ranged from 16 to 64 years. Atotal of 96 normal individuals (matched for age, sex, and nation) served as control group. The blood sample of all subjects were collected to extract DNA. The promotor of HL was sequenced to find the SNP. A statistic on the frequencies of the genotype and the allele of the SNP was made. The frequencies of the genotype and the allele were analyzed with χ2 test according to case-control principle. Results The rs59644784 and rs1800588 were found in the sequenced region. It was accorded with Hardy-Weinbery genetic equil ibrium law in rs59644784 and rs1800588 of the control group and case group. There was no significant difference in the allele and genotype of rs59644784 and rs1800588 between the control group and case group (P gt; 0.05). The two SNPs existed complete l inkage disequil ibrium according to the l inkage disequil ibrium analysis. Conclusion The heterozygosity of the SNP is not consistency, and heterozygosity may be associated with the diversity of the race. ANFH is not associated with rs59644784 and rs1800588 SNPs.
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between the -2548 G/A functional polymorphism in the 5′ promoter region of the leptin gene and gallstones. Methods The -2548 G/A polymorphisms of leptin gene were determined by polymerase chain reactionrestriction fragment length polymorphism technology (PCRRFLP) in 118 patients with cholesterol gallstones and 53 normal control subjects. Then the allele and genotype distribution were studied. Results The distribution of leptin2458 G/A in two groups was statistically significantly different: the genotype frequency of AA+GA of patients in gallstone group was higher than that in control group (χ2=4.251, P=0.039). AA+AG genotype had 2.813 times greater risk for gallstone disease compared with GG genotype (OR=2.813, 95% CI=1.020-7.757). Allele frequency distribution in the two groups was different: the allele frequency of A of patients in gallstone group was higher than that in control group (χ2=5.791, P=0.016). The risk of gallstone disease in the A alleles carriers was 1.777 times as higher as the carriers of G alleles (OR=1.777, 95% CI=1.110-2.844). ConclusionThe -2548 G/A polymorphism in the 5′ promoter region of leptin gene is significantly correlated with the gallstones. The A alleles of leptin may be a genetic factor which contributes to individual susceptibility for gallstone, while the G alleles of leptin may be a genetic factor that prevents people from gallstone.
Objective To analyze the correlation between the polymorphism on interleukin 6 (IL-6) gene promoter region-174 locus and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), including the susceptibility, the bracing effectiveness, and the possible mechanism. Methods The 182 AIS patients and 210 healthy controls who met the inclusion criteria between January 2013 and January 2016 were collected as research objects. The genotype of IL-6 gene promoter region-174 locus, the serum IL-6, the bone mineral density (BMD) of femoral neck and vertebrae (L1–4), and the bone metabolism parameters, including bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), bone gla protein (BGP), tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b), urine Ca, and urine Ca/Cr, were detected. All research objects were divided into the AIS group and the control group according to whether they had AIS, the GG, CG, CC groups according to their genotype, and progression-free group and progression group according to the therapeutic effectiveness of 1-year bracing treatment. Statistical analysis for the indexes were conducted respectively. Results There were significant differences in AIS history, BMD of femoral neck and lumbar vertebrae between the AIS group and control group (P<0.05). According to the therapeutic effecitveness of 1-year bracing treatment, 182 AIS patients were divided into progression-free group in 110 cases and progression group in 72 cases. The results of single factor analysis showed that there were significant differences in the genotype and allele distribution of IL-6 gene promoter region-174 locus, BMD of femoral neck and lumbar vertebrae, IL-6, TRACP-5b, urine Ca, and urine Ca/Cr between the progression-free group and progression group (P<0.05). The results of multivariable analysis showed that the BMD of lumbar vertebrae, TRACP-5b, and urine Ca were the influencing factors of bracing efficacy (P<0.05). According to the results of genotype detection, all research objects were divided into GG group in 264 cases, CG group in 104 cases, and CC group in 24 cases. The IL-6, TRACP-5b, urine Ca, and urine Ca/Cr of GG type carriers were higher and BMD of femoral neck and lumbar vertebrae were lower when compared with the CG and CC type carriers (P<0.05). The BMD of lumbar vertebrae of CG type carriers was lower than that of CC type carriers (P<0.05). Conclusion The polymorphism of IL-6 genepromoter region-174 locus wasn’t correlated with the AIS susceptibility, but it was correlated (not independently correlated) with the scoliosis progression under bracing treatment, and the risk for G-carried patients was higher. The mechanism may be that the polymorphism affected the IL-6 expression level and eventually affected the BMD of AIS patients through the bone metabolism.
Objective To explore the relationship between alcohol induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677 C/T. Methods From July 2005 to May 2008, eighty-nine male patients with alcohol induced ONFH were selected as the patient group, aged from 24 to58 years old (mean 44.3 years old). The time of drinking was about 17 years, 375 mL/day. The imaging evidence showed ONFH with no other history associated to ONFH. Seventy-seven male healthy adults were selected as the control group, aged from 23 to 52 years old (mean 42.7 years old). The time of drinking was about 14 years, 335 mL/day. The imaging evidence showed no ONFH. The 2 mL blood sample was acquired from every subject. DNA was purified from leucocyte at first, then was ampl icated by PCR, the product of PCR was sequenced at last. The SNP of MTHFR 677 C/T was analyzed with SPSS 12.0 software package. Results The TT genotype and T allele frequencies of MTHFR 677 C/T were 27.2% and 52.0% (P gt; 0.05) in the control group, and the distribution of genotype was consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equil ibrium. The genotype frequencies of CC, CT and TT were 23.4% (18 cases), 49.4% (38 cases) and 27.2% (21 cases) in the control group, were 14.6% (13 cases), 36.0% (32 cases) and 49.4% (44 cases) in the patient group; showing statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The allele frequencies of C and T were 48.0% (74) and 52.0% (80) in the control group, and were 32.6% (58) and 67.4% (120) in the patient group; showing statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The frequencies of C, T alleles and TT genotype were higher in the patient group than in the control group, showing statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The odds ratios were 0.523, 1.914 and 2.607, respectively; the 95% confidence interval were 0.335-0.816, 1.226-2.987, 1.359-5.001, respectively. Conclusion The relationship may exist between the SNP of MTHFR 677 C/T and alcohol induced ONFH.
