Mutations in the ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCA1 underlie Tangier disease and familial hypoalphaliproteinemia (FHA), disorders that are characterised by reduced high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and cholesterol efflux, and increased coronary artery disease (CAD). We explored if polymorphisms in the ABCA1 gene are associated with CAD and variations in plasma lipid levels, especially HDL-C, and whether the associations may depend on ethnicity. Male cases and controls from the Singapore Chinese, Malay and Indian populations were genotyped for five ABCA1 single nucleotide polymorphisms. Various single-locus frequency distribution differences between cases and controls were detected in different ethnic groups: the promoter -14C>T in Indians, exon 18 M883I in Malays, and 3'-untranslated (UTR) region 8994A>G in Chinese. For the Malay population, certain haplotypes carrying the I825- A (exon 17) and M883- G alleles were more frequent among cases than controls, whereas the converse was true for the alternative configuration of V825- G and I883- A, and this association was reinforced in multi-locus disequilibrium analysis that utilized genotypic data. In the healthy controls, associations were found for -14C>T genotypes with HDL-C in Chinese; 237indelG (5'UTR) with apolipoprotein A1 (apoA1) in Malays and total cholesterol (TC) in Indians; M883I with lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] in Malays and apolipoprotein B (apoB) in Chinese; and 8994A>G with Lp(a) in Malays, and TC, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) as well as apoB in Indians. While genotype-phenotype associations were not reproduced across populations and loci, V825I and M883I were clearly associated with CAD status in Malays with no effects on HDL-C or apoA1. 相似文献

PCR-RFLP analysis was performed for 391 cases and 514 control individuals to analyze the contribution of polymorphisms of the matrix metalloproteinase genes MMP1 (−1607 G>GG, rs1799750; −519 A>G, rs494379), MMP2 (−735 C>T, rs2285053), MMP3 (−1171 5A>6A, rs35068180), MMP9 (−1562 C>T, rs3918242; 2660A>G, rs17576), MMP12 (−82 A>G, rs2276109), the disintegrin and metalloproteinase 33 gene ADAM33 (12418 A>G, rs2280091; 13491 C>G, rs2787094), and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase genes TIMP2 (−418 G>C, rs8179090) and TIMP3 (−1296 T>C, rs9619311) to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Significant association with increased rick of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was observed for the 6A6A genotype of the MMP3 −1171 5A>6A polymorphism (OR = 2.49, P adj = 0.003979, P cor = 0.0358 adjusted for age, sex, smoke pack-years, ethnicity) and for the G-G haplotype of ADAM33 polymorphisms 13491 C>G and 12418 A>G (OR = 0.39, P adj = 0.0012, P cor = 0.006). Significant interactions were detected between the smoking status and ADAM33 12418 A >G (P interact = 0.026) and TIMP3 −1296 T>C (P interact = 0.044). The risk of emphysema was increased in GG homozygotes by ADAM33 13491 C>G and a risk of emphysema was found (OR = 1.74, P adj = 0.013, P cor = 0.117). The severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was modified by MMP9 −1562 C>T in the additive model (OR = 1.883, P adj = 0.028, P cor = 0.252). Thus, polymorphisms of MMP3, MMP9, ADAM33, and TIMP3 can be considered important risk factors for the development and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; in addition, pathogenetically significant gene-environment interactions were identified. These data contribute to the understanding of hereditary predisposition to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 相似文献

Tryptophan catabolites pathway disorders are observed in patients with depression. Moreover, single nucleotide polymorphisms of tryptophan hydroxylase genes may modulate the risk of depression occurrence. The objective of our study was to confirm the association between the presence of polymorphic variants of TPH1 and TPH2 genes, and the development of depressive disorders. Six polymorphisms were selected: c.804‐7C>A (rs10488682), c.‐1668T>A (rs623580), c.803+221C>A (rs1800532), c.‐173A>T (rs1799913)—TPH1, c.‐1449C>A (rs7963803), and c.‐844G>T (rs4570625)—TPH2. A total of 510 DNA samples (230 controls and 280 patients) were genotyped using TaqMan probes. Among the studied polymoorphisms, the G/G genotype and G allele of c.804‐7C>A—TPH1, the T/T homozygote of c.803+221C>A—TPH1, the A/A genotype and A allele of c.1668T>A—TPH1, the G/G homozygote and G allele of c.‐844G>T—TPH2, and the C/A heterozygote and A allele of c.‐1449C>A—TPH2 were associated with the occurrence of depression. However, the T/T homozygote of c.‐1668T>A—TPH1, the G/T heterozygote and T allele of c.‐844G>T—TPH2, and the C/C homozygote and C allele of c.‐1449C>A—TPH2 decreased the risk of development of depressive disorders . Each of the studied polymorphisms modulated the risk of depression for selected genotypes and alleles. These results support the hypothesis regarding the involvement of the pathway in the pathogenesis of depression. 相似文献

Melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) is one of five G-protein-coupled receptors binding melanocortins that is implicated in the
control of feeding behavior and energy homeostasis. Six cattle populations (n = 594), including four Chinese indigenous breeds, Chinese Holstein, and a meat type breed (Angus), were used to detect single
nucleotide polymorphisms in 5′-untranslated region of MC4R gene by means of PCR–SSCP and DNA sequencing. Four linked SNPs (g.[−293C>G; −193A>T; −192T>G; −129A>G]) were identified.
The g.−293C>G and g.−129A>G could be genotyped with a PCR–RFLP using TaiI in three combined genotypes (AA, AB and BB). The two linked SNPs were associated with body weight and daily gain in Nanyang
aged 6 months (P < 0.05), but they had no significant effect on body weight and daily gain in Nanyang aged 24 months (P > 0.05). 相似文献

Background Dyslipidemia, a common complication, is very prevalent in children with primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS). Recent studies
have shown that genetic basis may be involved in the onset of HLP secondary to PNS. ApoB and E have been identified as the
important candidate genes for lipid abnormalities. Objective: To investigate the association of apolipoprotein B (apoB) and E (apoE) genetic polymorphisms (Xba I, EcoR I, Msp I, and Hha I) with parameters describing the serum lipid profiles in children undergoing PNS. Methods: Genomic DNA was extracted from 250 children diagnosed with PNS and 200 healthy controls with neither allergic nor renal
disease. ApoB (Xba I, EcoR I, and Msp I) and apoE (Hha I) genotypes were determined by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. The fasting serum lipoprotein
(a) [Lp(a)], total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein
cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein A1 (apoA1), apoB, and total protein from a 24-h urine sample were measured. Results: No significant differences in genotypes and alleles frequencies were observed for the apoB Xba I, EcoR I, Msp I and the apoE Hha I restriction sites in PNS patients as compared to controls (P > 0.05). Patients and controls with X + allele exhibited significantly higher serum levels of Lp(a), TC, nonHDL-C, LDL-C,
LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, and apoB than that with X− allele (P < 0.05), whereas for apoA1/B ratio the opposite was found (P < 0.01). E−/E− carriers had significantly higher Lp(a), TC, HDL-C, and apoA1 concentrations than did E+/E− or E+/E+ carriers
in control group (P < 0.05). Healthy children carrying the rare EcoR I allele had higher mean Lp(a), TC, and HDL-C levels than homozygotes for E+ (P < 0.05). Higher Lp(a) serum concentrations were observed in patients with E− allele (P < 0.05). No significant differences in lipid parameters were determined for the apoB Msp I and apoE Hha I the polymorphisms study (P > 0.05). When genetic variations were compared with urinary protein excretion, the Xba I X− allele was more frequent in patients with elevated proteinuria (P < 0.01). Conclusion: Presence of Xba I X+ allele and/or EcoR I E− at the apoB gene may be risk factors for lipid abnormalities secondary to childhood PNS. 相似文献

The H2B family, member W, testis specific (H2BFWT) gene encodes a testis specific histone that plays a crucial role in reorganization and remodeling of chromatin and epigenetic regulation during spermatogenesis, suggesting that the gene may be involved in spermatogenesis impairment. To test the speculation, the allele and haplotype frequencies of two single-nucleotide polymorphism loci in this gene, ?9C>T and 368A>G, were investigated in 409 infertile patients with idiopathic azoospermia or oligozoospermia and 209 fertile men as controls using polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. As the results, the frequencies of ?9T (52.8% vs. 41.6%, p = 0.009) and 368G (43.0% vs. 32.5%, p = 0.012) were significantly higher in patients than those in controls; after stratifying patients, the significant higher frequencies were still detected in allele ?9T for azoospermia (57.4% vs. 41.6%, p = 0.001) and allele 368G for oligozoospermia (45.4% vs. 32.5%, p = 0.007). The haplotype CA was significantly decreased (22.8% vs. 33.0%, p = 0.006) whereas TG was significantly increased (18.3% vs. 7.2%, p < 0.001) in infertile patients compared with controls. These results indicated that the polymorphism ?9C>T and 368A>G in H2BFWT gene are associated with male infertility with idiopathic azoospermia or oligozoospermia, suggesting that H2BFWT gene might be contribute to susceptibility to spermatogenesis impairment in Chinese population. 相似文献

MC4R belongs to a seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptor which may regulate body composition and insulin action. Many
mutations in the MC4R gene are associated with obesity, energy expenditure and serum triglyceride levels in human and animals. Six mutations in
the MC4R gene were identified in our study (-293C>G, -193A>T, -192T>G, -129A>G, -84T>C and 1,069C>G). The -129A>G was significantly
associated with live weight (LW) (P < 0.05), Cattle with the genotypes AG and GG had higher LW than genotype AA. The 1,069C>G was significantly associated with
LW, carcass weight (CW), backfat thickness and marbling score (MS). Cattle with the genotype GG had higher LW, CW and MS than
genotype CC; Cattle with the genotypes GG and CG had higher MS than CC. The results suggested that -129A>G and 1,069C>G SNP
of the MC4R gene may be useful as a genetic marker for carcass and meat quality traits in Qinchuan cattle. 相似文献

Iron may be implicated in the generation of oxidative stress by the catalyzing the Haber–Weiss or Fenton reaction. On the
other hand, oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and heme oxygenase-1
(HO-1), encoded by the HMOX1 gene and heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2), encoded by the HMOX2 gene are important markers of iron-related oxidative stress and its consequences. Therefore, variability of the HMOX1 and HMOX2 genes might be implicated in the pathogenesis of AMD through the modulation of the cellular reaction to oxidative stress.
In the present work, we investigated the association between AMD and a G → C transversion at the 19 position in the HMOX1 gene (the 19G>C-HMOX1 polymorphism, rs2071747) and a A → G transition at the −42 + 1444 position in the HMOX2 gene (the −42 + 1444A>G-HMOX2 polymorphism, rs2270363) and its modulation by some environmental factors. 279 patients with AMD and 105 controls were recruited
in this study and the polymorphisms were typed by restriction fragment length polymorphism and allele-specific polymerase
chain reaction (PCR). We observed an association between the occurrence of dry AMD and the G/A genotype of the −42 + 1444A>G-HMOX2 polymorphism (odds ratio (OR) 2.72), whereas the G/G genotype reduced the risk of dry AMD (OR 0.41). The G/C genotype and
the C allele of the 19 G>C-HMOX1 polymorphism and the G/G genotype and the G allele of the −42 + 1444A>G-HMOX2 polymorphism were associated with progression of AMD from dry to wet form (OR 4.83, 5.20, 2.55, 1.69, respectively). On the
other hand, the G/G genotype and the G allele of the 19 G>C-HMOX1 polymorphism and the A/G genotype and the A allele of the −42 + 1444A>G-HMOX2 polymorphism protected against AMD progression (OR 0.19, 0.19, 0.34, 0.59, respectively). Therefore, the 19G>C-HMOX1 and the −42 + 1444A>G-HMOX2 polymorphisms may be associated with the occurrence and progression of AMD. 相似文献

In this report, we investigated the frequency and spectrum of mitochondrial 12S rRNA variants in a large cohort of 1642 Han Chinese pediatric subjects with aminoglycoside-induced and nonsyndromic hearing loss. Mutational analysis of 12S rRNA gene in these subjects identified 68 (54 known and 14 novel) variants. The frequencies of known 1555A>G and 1494C>T mutations were 3.96% and 0.18%, respectively, in this cohort with nonsyndromic and aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss. Prevalence of other putative deafness-associated mutation at positions 1095 and 961 were 0.61% and 1.7% in this cohort, respectively. Furthermore, the 745A>G, 792C>T, 801A>G, 839A>G, 856A>G, 1027A>G, 1192C>T, 1192C>A, 1310C>T, 1331A>G, 1374A>G and 1452T>C variants conferred increased sensitivity to ototoxic drugs or nonsyndromic deafness as they were absent in 449 Chinese controls and localized at highly conserved nucleotides of this rRNA. However, other variants appeared to be polymorphisms. Moreover, 65 Chinese subjects carrying the 1555A>G mutation exhibited bilateral and sensorineural hearing loss. A wide range of severity, age-of-onset and audiometric configuration was observed among these subjects. In particular, the sloping and flat-shaped patterns were the common audiograms in individuals carrying the 1555A>G mutation. The phenotypic variability in subjects carrying these 12S rRNA mutations indicated the involvement of nuclear modifier genes, mitochondrial haplotypes, epigenetic and environmental factors in the phenotypic manifestation of these mutations. Therefore, our data demonstrated that mitochondrial 12S rRNA is the hot spot for mutations associated with aminoglycoside ototoxicity. 相似文献

The Matrix metalloproteinas-9 functional promoter polymorphism 1562C>T may be considered an important genetic determinant
of early-onset coronary artery disease (ECAD). In this study, association between MMP-9 1562C>T allele with plasma MMP-9 activity,
homocysteine and lipid–lipoproteins level and ECAD in Iranian subjects was investigated. This case–control study consisted
of 53 ECAD patients (age < 55 years) and unrelated late-onsets CAD (age > 70 years) who angiographically had at least 50%
stenosis. MMP-9 1562C>T polymorphism was detected by PCRRFLP, plasma MMP-9 activity, serum lipid and homocysteine levels were
determined by gelatin gel zymography, enzyme assay and by HPLC, respectively. The presence of MMP-9 1562C>T allele was found
to be associated with ECAD (OR = 3.2, P = 0.001). The ECAD patients with MMP-9 1562C>T allele had higher MMP-9 activity (P = 0.001), LDL-C (P = 0.045), TC (P = 0.02) and homocysteine (P = 0.01) levels than the LCAD subjects. MMP-9 1562C>T allele is a risk factor for ECAD. The carriers of this allele have high
levels of MMP-9 activity, LDL-C, TC and homocysteine (P = 0.01), thus, are more likely to develop myocardial infarction and CAD at young age (less than 55 years). 相似文献

The majority of mammals are unable to digest lactose due to post-weaning deactivation of the LCT gene, which is responsible for encoding the enzyme lactase (i.e., adult-type hypolactasia). A substitution of C with T at position −13910 bp upstream of the LCT gene has been linked to the lactase persistence phenotype in European populations. We investigated the frequency of LCT-13910C>T
polymorphism in 223 blood donors from central Poland. All samples were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing.
The LCT-13910 T allele (lactase persistence) was present in 51% of individuals sampled from the Polish population. We did
not find any non-European variants associated with lactase persistence (LCT-13907C>G, LCT-13913T>C, LCT-13915T>G), or any
new polymorphisms within the sequenced region. Allele frequencies obtained are in agreement with results from other countries
and confirm the unique pattern of distribution of the LCT-13910C>T genotype in Europe. 相似文献

Objective: Perilipin is a class of protein‐coating lipid droplets in adipocytes and steroidogenic cells. Our purpose was to examine the association between common single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the perilipin (PLIN) locus and obesity, as well as related phenotypes, in unrelated American adults. Research Methods and Procedures: Four PLIN SNPs (PLIN 6209T>C, 11482G>A, 13041A>G, and 14995A>T) were typed in 734 white subjects (373 men and 361 women) attending a residential lifestyle intervention program. The baseline anthropometric and biochemical measures were used. Obesity was defined as BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2. Results: Multivariate analysis demonstrated that, in women, two of the SNPs (13041A>G, and 14995A>T) were significantly associated with percentage body fat (p = 0.016 for 13041A>G and p = 0.010 for 14995A>T) and waist circumference (p = 0.020 for 13041A>G and p = 0.045 for 14995A>T). Moreover, haplotype analysis using these two SNPs indicated that haplotypes A/T and G/T were both associated with significantly increased obesity risk (odds ratio = 1.76, 95% confidence interval 1.07 to 2.90 for haplotype A/T, and odds ratio = 1.73, 95% confidence interval 1.06 to 2.82 for haplotype G/T) when compared with haplotype A/A. No significant associations between PLIN variations and obesity were found in men. Discussion: Our data support the hypothesis that the PLIN locus may be a significant genetic determinant for obesity risk in whites and that women are more sensitive to the genetic effects of perilipin than men. 相似文献

Transgenically expressed Syndecan-1 was found in the hypothalamic nuclei that control energy balance, and was associated with
maturity-onset obesity, while ghrelin has been shown to play important roles in the control of food intake, gastric acid secretion,
energy homeostasis, and glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the roles of genetic variations of Syndecan-1 and ghrelin on
growth trait have few been reported in cattle. Herein, five Chinese cattle breeds were analyzed by PCR–SSCP and DNA sequencing
methods. The bovine ghrelin gene showed eleven SNPs g.[267G>A, 271G>A, 290C>T, 326A>G, 327T>C, 420C>A, 569A>G, 945C>T, 993C>T,
4491A>G, 4644G>A] and three SNPs g.[420C>A, 569 A>G, 945C>T] were firstly detected in cattle. The bovine Syndecan-1 gene showed
two SNPs. One SNP showed a transition C>G at position 21514, resulting in a synonymous mutation p.G(GGC)169G(GGG) and another
showed a transversion C>T at position 22591, resulting in a synonymous mutation p.D(GAC)283D(GAT). In ghrelin gene, no significant
associations were revealed between any variant sites and body weight, average daily gain, body sizes for different growth
periods (6, 12, 18, and 24 months old), as well as for the milk yield at 305 days, milk protein rate and milk fat percentage.
However, the polymorphism of Syndecan-1 gene was significantly associated with bovine birth weight and body length. Hence,
we first suggested that Syndecan-1 gene could be regarded as molecular marker for superior birth weight and body length. 相似文献

Genetic mutation in cytochrome c oxidase subunit III gene (MT-CO3) could influence the kinetics of cytochrome c oxidase (COX), which catalyzes oxygen transport capacity in oxidative phosphorylation. However, the potential relationship between MT-CO3 variants and high-altitude adaptation remains poorly understood in Tibetan chicken. Here, we sequenced MT-CO3 gene of 125 Tibetan chickens and 144 Chinese domestic chickens in areas at a low elevation (below 1000 m). Eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected; and five of them (m.10081A>G, m.10115G>A, m.10270G>A, m.10336A>G and m.10447C>T) shared by Tibetan chicken and lowland chicken with the significant difference in their respective allele frequencies. Nine haplotypes (H1–H9) were finally defined. Among them, haplotype H4 was positively associated with high-altitude adaptation whereas haplotypes H6, H7 and H8 had negative association with high-altitude adaptation. The Median-joining profile suggested that haplotype H5 had the ancestral position to the other haplotypes but had no significant relationship with high-altitude adaptation. However, there was only m.10081A>G mutation differed from haplotype H4 and H5. Results also suggested that chickens with A allele at m.10081A>G, had over 2.6 times than those with G allele in the probability of the ability to adapt hypoxia. It suggests that the synonymous mutation m.10081A>G may be a prerequisite for shaping high-altitude adaptation-specific haplotypes. 相似文献

Growth differentiation factor (GDF)-15 belongs to a member of the transforming growth factor-β cytokine superfamily, and elevated
GDF-15 concentrations are linked to increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and future adverse cardiac events in apparently
healthy elderly women, acute coronary syndrome, and chronic heart failure. However, its genetic mechanisms are still unknown.
We investigated whether GDF-15 −3148C>G variant (SNP, rs4808793) is associated with a predisposition to coronary artery disease
(CAD) and its severity in a Chinese population. We studied 418 consecutive patients, including 192 with coronary stenosis
≥50% or previous myocardial infarction and 226 controls without documented CAD. Coronary artery disease cases and controls
were genotyped for SNP rs4808793 by using the ligase detection reaction method. The three genotypes CC, CG, and GG were present
in rs4808793. No differences were found in genotype distribution and allele frequencies of rs4808793 between subjects with
and without CAD, or when grouped according to sex. Logistic regression did not reveal any increased risk of CAD in subjects
carrying the CG, GG genotype, or G allele at rs4808793 compared with individuals carrying the CC genotype or C allele; this
finding was the same when subjects were grouped by sex (all P > 0.05). Rs4808793 does not affect main anthropometric and metabolic characteristics, nor did there exists any association
between rs4808793 and the severity of coronary lesions (all P > 0.05). Our data do not support an association of rs4808793 with CAD or its severity in a Chinese population. 相似文献

Quantitative trait loci for fat deposition and carcass traits have been identified in the vicinity of the gene encoding phosphodiesterase 1B (PDE1B) on bovine chromosome 5. Therefore, the PDE1B gene can be considered as a positional and functional candidate gene
for carcass traits in beef cattle. This study aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the PDE1B gene and
to evaluate their associations with carcass traits in Korean cattle. Eight SNPs, g.440T>G, g.17122A>G, g.17507A>C, g.17575A>G,
g.17607T>C, g.17609C>A, g.17692C>T, and g.17707C>G, were identified in the region ranged from exon 1 to intron 6. Five of
them were used for association analysis because of their availability of restriction fragment length polymorphisms. As a result,
g.17122A>G in intron 3 was significantly associated with backfat thickness (BFT), and g.17507A>C in exon 5 was associated
with longissimus dorsi muscle area (LMA, P < 0.05). Animals with the AG genotype of g.17122 had thicker BFT than those with the AA genotype. Animals with the AA or
AC genotype of g.17507A>C had larger LMA than those with the CC genotype. We suggested the PDE1B gene as a candidate gene
for carcass traits of beef cattle. Fine mapping would be required for application to marker-assisted selection. 相似文献

Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a multifunctional protein that catalyzes de novo synthesis of fatty acids in cells. It plays a key role in the lipid biosynthesis as well as in the general metabolism of all living animals. We herein investigated polymorphisms of FASN. As a result, six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found and then genotyped in 752 Chinese Holstein cows. It was found that g.17924A>G was non‐synonymous, g.13965 C>T, g.16907 T>C and g.18663T>C were synonymous mutations and two other two SNPs, g.8948 C>T (ss491228481) and g.14439T>C (rs133498277), were in intronic sequences of the gene. All such identified SNPs were found to be associated with milk yield and composition traits (P = 0.0441 to <0.0001). Significant additive and allele substitution effects were observed for three yield traits at all six loci as well (P < 0.05 to <0.01). Complete linkage disequilibrium among the five SNPs, with the exception of g.8948 C>T, was observed. 相似文献
