Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) plays an essential role in the renin–angiotensin system. It converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II and inactivates bradykinin and tachykinins. Numerous studies have been published investigating associations of the ACE gene I/D polymorphism with various pathophysiological conditions. We examined the prevalence of the ACE I/D polymorphism in a sample of healthy volunteers from western Turkey, including 1063 healthy Turkish controls. Analysis of the ACE I/D gene polymorphisms by polymerase chain reaction found frequencies of 16.1% for the II genotype, 47.7% for the ID genotype, and 36.2% for the DD genotype. The allele frequency was 39.9% for the I alleles and 60.1% for the D allele. This study demonstrates that the allele and genotype frequency values for the Turkish population are similar to previously published frequencies for Caucasian populations. 相似文献

Genetic factors are important in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion(I)/deletion(D) polymorphism is one of the genetic factor found to be related with CAD. We investigated the association between I/D polymorphism of the ACE gene and the presence of CAD. Three hundred and seven patients (187 males and 120 females, aged between 35-80, mean 54.3 +/-9.8 years) who underwent diagnostic coronary angiography were included in the study. ACE I/D polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction. Of the 307, 176 had CAD. The most frequently observed genotype in all subjects was ID (47.9 %). However, in patients with CAD the frequency of II genotype was lower whereas DD genotype was higher compared to the controls (p < 0.05). The number of D allele carrying subjects were also higher (p < 0.05) in CAD patients. The logistic regression analysis indicated that the ACE D allele is an independent risk factor (odds ratio = 1.48, 95 % CI = 1.01-2.18, p < 0.05). In conclusion, the I/D polymorphism of ACE gene (carrying D allele) is an independent risk factor for CAD in the studied Turkish population. 相似文献

在中国北方汉族人群中血管紧张素转换酶基因I/D多态与G蛋白beta3亚基基因C825T多态对原发性高血压的联合作用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
原发性高血压是一种复杂的多基因疾病,被认为是多个变异了的基因遗传交互以及环境因素共同作用的结果.证据表明,血管紧张素转换酶基因和G蛋白beta3亚基基因各自都是重要的原发性高血压的易感基因,并且可能存在共同的通路来导致高血压疾病的发展.为了探索这两个基因在中国北方汉族人群中是否对高血压有影响,挑选血管紧张素转换酶基因I/D多态与G蛋白beta3亚基基因C825T多态,在一个包含502个高血压病例和490个健康对照的样本中做了关联研究.连锁不平衡分析揭示,仅仅在男性中有显著性的非随机性分布,表明血管紧张素转换酶基因与G蛋白beta3亚基基因倾向在男性中造成高血压.调整了的单位点的多变量逐步回归分析展示,在男性显性模型中DD/ID对Ⅱ的比值比达到显著性水平(OR1.57;95%CI,1.09~2.27;P=0.016).在对性别进行分层后的联合分析中,在男性中经过调整后的比值比具有弱显著性水平:在血管紧张素转换酶基因的DD基因型中,TT对CC的比值比是0.11;95%CI,0.01~0.99;P=0.049;在G蛋白beta3亚基基因的CC CT基因型中,DD/ID对Ⅱ的比值比是1.52;95%CI,1.01~2.29;P=0.047.结果暗示,血管紧张素转换酶基因或附近的某个基因是具有男性性别倾向的高血压易感侯选基因,同时,在血管紧张素转换酶基因基因的D等位基因和G蛋白beta3亚基基因的825C等位基因之间,可能存在具有上位效应的基因-基因相互作用. 相似文献

Unaccustomed exercise may cause muscle breakdown with marked increase in serum creatine kinase (CK) activity. The skeletal muscle renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in exercise metabolism and tissue injury. A functional insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism in the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene (rs4646994) has been associated with ACE activity. We hypothesized that ACE ID genotype may contribute to the wide variability in individuals' CK response to a given exercise. Young individuals performed maximal eccentric contractions of the elbow flexor muscles. Pre- and postexercise CK activity was determined. ACE genotype was significantly associated with postexercise CK increase and peak CK activity. Individuals harboring one or more of the I allele had a greater increase and higher peak CK values than individuals with the DD genotype. This response was dose-dependent (mean +/- SE U/L: II, 8,882 +/- 2,362; ID, 4,454 +/- 1,105; DD, 2,937 +/- 753, ANOVA, P = 0.02; P = 0.009 for linear trend). Multivariate stepwise regression analysis, which included age, sex, body mass index, and genotype subtypes, revealed that ACE genotype was the most powerful independent determinant of peak CK activity (adjusted odds ratio 1.3, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.64, P = 0.02). In conclusion, we indicate a positive association of the ACE ID genotype with CK response to strenuous exercise. We suggest that the II genotype imposes increased risk for developing muscle damage, whereas the DD genotype may have protective effects. These findings support the role of local RAS in the regulation of exertional muscle injury. 相似文献

ACE基因多态性与高血压肾脏损害及PAI-1的关系 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
为探讨血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)基因多态性与高血压肾损害和纤溶酶原激活物抑制物-1(PAI-1)的关系,应用聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测96例正常人、67例高血压无肾脏损害患者和70例高血压伴肾损害患者的ACE基因型,采用ELISA法检测血浆PAI-1。ACE基因I/D多态性与高血压病无明显相关,但高血压肾损害患者DD基因型频率及D等位基因频率显著高于对照组和高血压无肾脏损害组,χ2值分别为6.8589、5.6162 和5.9085、5372。血浆PAI-1在DD型、ID型、II型高血压患者之间亦有显著性差异(P<0.05)。ACE基因DD型可能是高血压肾损害的危险因素;ACE基因多态性与血浆PAI-1水平相关。
Abstract:The work is to explore the relationship between the polymorphism of angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) gene and hypertensive kidney lesion/PAI-1 in hypertension patients.ACE genotyping with polymorase chain reaction (PCR) was performed in 96 unrelated healthy controls,67 hypertensives without kidney lesion and 70 hypertensives complicated with kidney lesion.The plasma PAI-1 were determined with ELISA.No significant differences could be detected between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and hypertension.However,the frequencies of DD genotype and deletion allele among the hypertensives complicated with kidney lesion were higher than those among the healthy controls and those among the hypertensives without kidney lesion."χ2" values were 6.8589,5.6162 and 5.9085,5.372 respectively.The plasma PAI-1 level showed significant differences among DD genotype,ID genotype and II genotype(P<0.05).The DD genotype of ACE gene may be a risk for hypertensive kidney lesion.The plasma PAI-1 level is associated with ACE gene polymorphism. 相似文献

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important role not only in the regulation of vascular homeostasis but also in stimulation of hematopoiesis. We aimed to evaluate the association between insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the ACE gene and anemia at the time of the diagnosis. We enrolled 75 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and 85 age- and sex-matched healthy control participants. The I/D polymorphism of ACE was identified by using polymerase chain reaction from peripheral blood samples. Statistical analyses were performed with SPSS for Windows. The distributions of the ACE genotypes and alleles are similar in patients and in healthy participants (P=0.29 and P=0.08, respectively). In patients with NSCLC, 34 (45.3%) had anemia; of whom 3 (8.8%) had genotype II, 24 (70.6%) had genotype ID, and 7 (20.6%) had genotype DD (P=0.001). The patients with the II and ID genotypes had more frequent anemia at the time of the diagnosis (odds ratio = 6.02; P=0.001). Our findings suggest that I/D polymorphism of the ACE gene may influence the development of anemia in patients with NSCLC. 相似文献

BackgroundAngiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) stimulates angiogenesis that leads to the development of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Alu repetitive elements in ACE gene increase the expression of this enzyme. We investigated the frequency of Alu repetitive elements, insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism, in angiotensin-converting enzyme among diabetic retinopathy patients and whether this polymorphism is associated with the severity of retinopathy in Jordanians with type 2 diabetes.MethodsA total of 277 subjects participated in this case/ control study (100 diabetic patients without DR, 82 diabetic patients with DR, and 95 healthy control). Blood samples were withdrawn, followed by DNA extraction. Alu repetitive elements were examined by polymerase chain reaction followed by gel electrophoresis.ResultsThe genotype and allele frequencies among diabetic patients, were close to healthy controls (genotypes, II 44.4 vs. 44.7%, ID 44.4 vs. 42.6%, DD 12.2 vs. 12.8%, P = 0.402 and 0.677 respectively, alleles, I 65.6 vs. 66%, D 34.4 vs. 34%, P=0.863). Complicated diabetics with retinopathy showed similar genotype and allele frequency to those without complications. The severity of diabetic retinopathy in affected individuals was not correlated with I/D polymorphism (P=0.862).ConclusionsWe conclude that the presence of Alu repetitive elements did not increase the development or progression risk to retinopathy in Jordanian type 2 diabetic patients. No association between I or D alleles with the severity of DR was detected. 相似文献

Growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) is a kind of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Previous studies showed that down-regulation of LncRNA-GAS5 was involved in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, the regulatory mechanism of down-expressed LncRNA-GAS5 in SLE remains obscure. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association of LncRNA-GAS5 polymorphism with SLE risk. And further explore how LncRNA-GAS5 is involved in the occurrence of SLE. Here, we evaluated the relationship between the risk for the development of SLE and the 5-base pair (AGGCA/-) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism (rs145204276) in the LncRNA-GAS5 promoter region. A custom 36-Plex SNPscan kit was used for genotyping the LncRNA-GAS5 polymorphisms. The LncRNA-GAS5 and miR-21 target prediction was performed using bioinformatics software. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were performed to assess GAS5 and miR-21 mRNA expression and PTEN protein expression. The results revealed that rs145204276 resulted in a decreased risk of SLE (DD genotypes vs II genotypes: adjusted OR = 0.538, 95% CI, 0.30-0.97, P = .039; ID genotypes vs II genotypes: adjusted OR = 0.641, 95% CI, 0.46-0.89, P = .007; ID/DD genotypes vs II genotypes: adjusted OR = 0.621, 95% CI, 0.46-0.84, P = .002; D alleles vs I alleles: adjusted OR = 0.680, 95% CI, 0.53-0.87, P = .002). A reduced incidence of renal disorders in SLE was found to be related to ID/DD genotypes and D alleles (ID/DD genotypes vs II genotypes: OR = 0.57, 95% CI, 0.36-0.92, P = .020; D alleles vs I alleles: OR = 0.63, 95% CI, 0.43-0.93, P = .019). However, no significant association of rs2235095, rs6790, rs2067079 and rs1951625 polymorphisms with SLE risk was observed (P > .05). Additionally, haplotype analysis showed that a decreased SLE risk resulted from the A-A-C-G-D haplotype (OR = 0.67, 95% CI, 0.49-0.91, P = .010). Also, patients in the SLE group showed a down-regulated expression of LncRNA-GAS5 and PTEN than the healthy volunteers; however, patients with rs145204276 ID/DD genotypes showed up-regulated expression of LncRNA-GAS5 and PTEN compared with patients carrying the II genotype. Furthermore, the miR-21 levels were considerably up-regulated in the SLE group than the healthy volunteers, and patients with rs145204276 ID/DD genotype had lower miR-21 levels than the ones with the II genotype. Thus, we found that the LncRNA-GAS5/miR-21/PTEN signalling pathway was involved in the development of SLE, where LncRNA-GAS5 acted as an miR-21 target, and miR-21 regulated the expression of PTEN. These findings indicated that the rs145204276 ID/DD genotypes in the LncRNA-GAS5 gene promoter region may be protected against SLE by up-regulating the expression of LncRNA-GAS5, which consecutively regulated miR-21 and PTEN levels. 相似文献

飞行员中血管紧张素转换酶基因插入或缺失多态性研究 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
为了解飞行员血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)基因插入或缺失(I/D)多态性情况,探讨ACE基因多态性与飞行员耐力可能的关系,用聚合酶链反应(PCR)扩增技术检测118例飞行员和96例健康对照者的ACE基因I/D多态性。 结果位于ACE基因内含子16的I/D多态性经PCR扩增后呈三种基因型:纯合子插入型(II)、纯合子缺失型(DD)和杂合子插入或缺失型(I/D)。飞行员组II基因型(44.07%)和I等位基因频率(0.65)显著高于健康对照组(分别为31.25%和0.52)。 结果表明ACE I基因有可能在飞行员的飞行耐力中起重要作用。
Abstract:In order to understand insertion/delation (I/D) polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene in pilots,and to explore the relationship between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and the perfomance of the pilots,the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to determine the genotypes for an I/D polymorphism in intron 16 of the ACE gene in 118 pilots and 96 healthy subjects as controls.The result showed that the I/D polymorphism in intron 16 of the ACE gene was categorized into three genotypes: two deletion alleles (genotype DD),heterozygous alleles (genotype ID),and two insertion alleles (genotype II).The genotype II and I allele frequency were significantly higher in pilots (44.07% and 0.65) than that in healthy subjects (31.25% and 0.52).It is suggested that I gene of ACE may play a role in perfomance of the pilots. 相似文献

An insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of Alpha2B-Adrenoceptor (ADRA2B) gene located on chromosome 2 has been studied extensively in related to cardiovascular diseases. The main aim of the present study was to examine the potential association of D allele frequency of I/D polymorphism of ADRA2B gene in Malaysian essential hypertensive subjects with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study includes 70 hypertensive subjects without T2DM, 65 hypertensive subjects with T2DM and 75 healthy volunteers as control subjects. Genotyping of I/D polymorphism was performed by conventional PCR method. There was significant difference found in age, body mass index, systolic/diastolic blood pressure and high density lipoprotein cholesterol level between the case and control subjects. DD genotypic frequency of I/D polymorphism was significantly higher in hypertensive subjects (42.84% vs. 29.33%; P-=0.029) and in hypertensive with T2DM subjects (46.15% vs. 29.33%; P=0.046) than control group. D allele frequency was higher in hypertensive group (67.41%) than control subjects (52.67%). However, no significant difference was found between the three genotypes of I/D polymorphism of ADRA2B gene and the clinical characteristics of the subjects. The result obtained in this study show D allele of ADRA2B gene was associated with essential hypertension with or without T2DM in Malaysian subjects. 相似文献

We aimed to (i) determine the relative importance of childhood gain in upper body adiposity for insulin resistance (IR) and triglyceridemia (TG); (ii) examine whether the associations between adiposity and metabolic indices were more evident in those with the ACE DD genotype. We examined a birth cohort study of 292 children with measures in the neonatal period (day 4) including subscapular and triceps skinfolds; repeat skinfold measures at age 8, cardiorespiratory (CR) fitness, IR by the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) equation (HOMA-IR) and serum triglyceride (TG) concentrations and measures of ACE I/D gene variants. A multiple linear regression analysis incorporating a life course approach was undertaken. Childhood gain in upper body adiposity was positively associated with HOMA-IR and TG independently of neonatal skinfolds (P < or = 0.02). The magnitude of these associations was higher among those of the ACE DD genotype. For example, subscapular skinfold gain was not strongly associated with HOMA-IR or TG among those with II or ID genotype (b = 0.03, P = 0.05; b = 0.02, P = 0.18 respectively) but was positively associated among those with the DD genotype (b = 0.11, P = 0.001; b = 0.08, P = 0.003); difference in effect P = 0.05; P = 0.01 respectively. Upper body fat accumulation during childhood was positively associated with HOMA-IR and TG independently of neonatal skinfolds. Further, the stronger associations for those with the ACE DD genotype is consistent with randomised controlled trial findings that ACE inhibition is associated with a reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Further work is required to confirm and extend these findings. 相似文献

Cigarette smoking, hypercholesterolemia, and obesity influence the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) functions including an increased synthesis of the angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE). Thus in the present work we explore the interactions of the ACE gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and traditional risk factors. The study cohort included 341 subjects composed of 172 patients with angiographically confirmed CAD and 169 blood donors without a history of cardiovascular diseases. The I/D polymorphism was genotyped using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methodology. To determine the interactions between the ACE genotypes and traditional risk factors the epidemiologic approach was used (4 x 2 tables and the synergy measures). The frequency of the DD genotype was significantly higher in patients than in controls (33.7% versus 21.3%, odds ratio [OR] = 1.88, 95% CI; 1.13-3.15, p = 0.010), but greater differences were found in males (35.7% versus 20.5%, OR = 2.15, 95% CI: 1.14-4.04, p = 0.010). We found a synergy of the DD genotype with smoking (SI = 1.88, SIM = 1.22), total cholesterol > or =5 mmol/l (SI = 2.12, SIM = 1.31) and elevated low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level (> or =3 mmol/l) (SI = 1.78, SIM = 1.14). The presence of the D allele (DD + ID subjects) also increased the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) associated with the presence of elevated total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (SI = 1.69, SIM = 1.18, in both cases), elevated level (> or =1.7 mmol/l) of triacylglycerols (SI = 1.81, SIM = 1.18) and overweight/obesity (SI = 4.25, SIM = 2.36). In each case the estimated CAD risk was greater than that predicted by assuming the additivity of effects (the risk increased from 69% for the D allele - total cholesterol interaction to 325% for the D allele - overweight/obesity). The statistical significance was also confirmed by a multiplicative model of synergy. The DD genotype/D allele of the ACE gene increases the risk of CAD associated with the presence of traditional risk factors. 相似文献

This study determined the allelic frequency and genotypic distribution of an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) polymorphism and serum ACE activity in Turkish patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). A colorimetric assay measured serum ACE activity in 73 of 97 subjects. Frequencies for II, ID, and DD genotypes were 19.6, 53.6, and 26.8% in the OSAS group and 15, 38, and 47% in the control group, respectively (P = 0.02). The I allele frequency was higher in the OSAS group than in the healthy control group (P = 0.02). Carrying the I allele (II or ID genotypes) increased OSAS risk 2.41 times in the Turkish population. Mean ACE activity was significantly lower in patients with the II genotype than in the DD genotype (P = 0.011), and ACE activity was significantly lower in patients with severe OSAS than in those with mild OSAS (P = 0.006). Our results suggest that II and ID genotypes of the ACE gene increase the risk of developing OSAS in the Turkish population. 相似文献

In endothelial cells, NF-kappaB is an important intracellular signaling molecule by which changes in wall shear stress are transduced into the nucleus to initiate downstream endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) gene expression. We investigated whether NF-kappa light-chain gene enhancer in B cells 1 (NFKB1) promoter polymorphism ((-94)NFKB1 I/D, where I is the insertion allele and D is the deletion allele) was associated with 1) NOS3 gene expression in endothelial cells under physiological levels of unidirectional laminar shear stress (LSS) and 2) endothelial function in prehypertensive and stage I hypertensive individuals before and after a 6-mo supervised endurance exercise intervention. Competitive EMSAs revealed that proteins present in the nuclei of endothelial cells preferentially bound to the I allele NFKB1 promoter compared with the D allele. Reporter gene assays showed that the I allele promoter had significantly higher activity than the D allele. In agreement with these observations, homozygous II genotype cells had higher p50 expression levels than homozygous DD genotype cells. Cells with the homozygous II genotype showed a greater increase in NOS3 protein expression than did homozygous DD genotype cells under LSS. Functional experiments on volunteers confirmed higher baseline reactive hyperemic forearm blood flow, and, furthermore, the subgroup analysis revealed that DD homozygotes were significantly less prevalent in the exercise responder group compared with II and ID genotypes. We conclude that the (-94)NFKB1 I/D promoter variation contributes to the modulation of vascular function and adaptability to exercise-induced flow shear stress, most likely due to differences in NFKB1 gene transactivity. 相似文献

The insertion/deletion polymorphism (I/D) of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene (ACE) was examined in type I diabetes mellitus patients (DM) with (n = 31), or without (n = 33) retinopathy, and in type 2 DM patients with either myocardial infarction (MI; n = 75), or with (n = 37), or without (n = 178) retinopathy. No association between the ACE gene and retinopathy in type 1 and type 2 DM patients was revealed. In the type 2 DM patients with MI, a statistically significant (P < 0.05) elevation of the D allele frequency (64%) compared to that without MI (55.3%), together with statistically nonsignificant prevalence of the DD homozygotes (41% versus 30.6%) was observed. Our data indicate that the D allele (RR 1.43) and DD genotype (RR 1.75) are risk factors for myocardial infarction in the type 2 DM patients. 相似文献

The aim of present study was to determine if factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation and angiotensin converting enzyme insertion/deletion
(ACE I/D) polymorphism are associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN) among Kurdish population from Western Iran. This case–control
study comprised 144 unrelated adult type 2 diabetic mellitus patients (T2DM) including 72 patients with microalbuminuria and
72 age and sex matched patients without nephropathy. The ACE I/D polymorphism and FVL mutation were detected by polymerase
chain reaction (PCR) and PCR–RFLP, respectively. The frequency of FVL G1691A and ACE D allele in T2DM patients with microalbuminuria
were 1.6 and 57%, respectively and in normoalbuminuric T2DM patients were 4.9 and 58.3%, respectively (P > 0.05). ACE genotypes affected on serum ACE activity and a better response to ACE inhibitor therapy (captopril) compared
to angiotensin II receptor antagonist (losartan) was obtained with significant reduction of ACE activity in diabetic patients
without nephropathy carrying DD genotype. However, the beneficial effect of losartan therapy was observed in microalbuminuric
patients with II genotype compared to ID and DD genotypes. 相似文献

The DD genotype of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) polymorphism has been associated with myocardial infarction (MI). However, sample sizes of many case-control studies showing positive association were small and data were inconsistent. Furthermore, no family-based study is available.In a case-control study frequencies of the ACE genotypes were compared in 1319 unrelated patients with previous MI before 60 years of age (616 from the MONICA Augsburg region and 703 from rehabilitation centers in south Germany) and in 2381 population controls from the MONICA Augsburg study region). Furthermore, linkage and association of the ACE I/D polymorphism with MI were tested in 246 informative families using the sib-transmission/disequilibrium test (S-TDT).Overall, no excess of the D allele was found in MI patients (frequency 0.53 versus 0.57 in the general population; P=0.2). The ACE DD genotype was even slightly less frequent in groups with MI compared to the general population controls (0.26 versus 0.33 in women and 0.28 versus 0.33 in men). Similar results were also obtained in 247 men with low cardiovascular risk. In the family-based study, the frequency of the D allele was not different in siblings with or without previous MI (0.53 versus 0.50, respectively; S-TDT P=0.15) indicating no linkage or association of the D allele with MI.In a case-control study of MI patients and controls from the general population as well as a family study neither association nor linkage of the ACE D allele with MI was detected despite sample sizes that were among the largest samples studied so far. 相似文献

Several studies have shown that the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) I allele is associated with enhanced physical performance. We investigated whether this phenomenon is observed in a cohort of 67 Chinese men in Singapore. Angiotensin-converting enzyme ID polymorphism was typed with PCR method and maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)) of the DD, ID, and II genotypes was compared. Analysis of covariance revealed that VO(2max) was significantly higher (p<0.05) for the DD genotype (57.86 +/- 3.5 ml.kg.(-1)min(-1)) versus the ID (50.58 +/- 1.80 ml.kg.(-1)min(-1)) or II (50.48 +/- 1.58 ml.kg.(-1) min(-1)) genotype. Our findings suggest that the ACE DD genotype in young adult Chinese males is associated with higher levels of VO(2max). 相似文献

had angina pectoris, and 25.28% of the patients had at least one event of syncope. Frequency of occurrence of the disease
was more in male patients compared to female patients (P < 0.05). After adjustment for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and smoking habit, the prevalence of ACE DD genotype, and
ACE ‘D’ allele was significantly higher in patients as compared to controls and was associated with increased risk (DD: OR
2.11, 95% CI 1.27–3.52, P < 0.05; ‘D’: OR 1.91, 95% CI 1.08–3.35, P < 0.05). The mean septal thickness was higher for DD and ID genotypes (20.40 ± 3.73 mm and 21.82 ± 5.35 mm, respectively)
when compared with II genotype (18.63 ± 6.69 mm) in HCM patients, however, the differences were not significant statistically
(P > 0.05). The DCM patients with ID genotype showed significantly decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) at enrolment
(26.50 ± 8.04%) (P = 0.04). Conclusion Our results suggest that D allele of ACE I/D polymorphism significantly influences the HCM and DCM phenotypes. 相似文献

Renin angiotensin system (RAS) comprising Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), Angiotensin II (Ang II) and its receptor Angiotensin II receptor type I (AGTR1), plays a critical role in several diseases including cancer. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) A1166C located in 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of AGTR1 and an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism present in intron 16 of ACE gene have been associated with many diseases, but their association with Breast cancer (BCa) is still debatable. Here, we for the first time investigated the association of these polymorphisms in a North Indian BCa cohort including 161 patients and 152 healthy women. The polymorphisms were evaluated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) respectively. The association between these polymorphisms and BCa risk was estimated by calculating Odds Ratio (OR) and chi-square (χ2) test. The DD genotype/D allele of ACE (I/D) polymorphism and “AC and CC” genotype/C allele of AGTR1 (A1166C) polymorphism were associated with higher risk of BCa when evaluated independently. Furthermore, interaction analysis of “AC and CC” and DD genotype and combination of “C and D” alleles of both polymorphisms revealed significantly greater BCa risk than that observed independently. Conclusively, women harboring “AC or CC” genotype/C allele for AGTR1 (A1166C) polymorphism and DD genotype/D allele for ACE (I/D) polymorphisms have a predisposition to develop more aggressive disease with advanced staging and larger tumor size. Our study indicates importance of genetic screening based on these polymorphisms for women, who may have higher risk of BCa. 相似文献
