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

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.     

Association of eNOS gene polymorphisms T-786C and G894T with blood pressure variability in man

The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) T-786C and G894T in the gene encoding eNOS with blood pressure variability (BPV) in man. Blood pressure was recorded beat-to-beat at rest three times in periods of one week (5 min, Finapres, breathing at 0.33 Hz) in 152 subjects (19-24 years). Systolic (SBPV(0.1r)/SBPV(0.1a)) and diastolic (DBPV(0.1r)/DBPV(0.1a)) blood pressure variabilities in relative (r.u.) and absolute (mm Hg(2)/Hz) units were determined by the spectral method as spectral power at the frequency of 0.1 Hz. Genotypes of both polymorphisms were detected using polymerase chain reaction and restriction analysis using enzymes Msp I and Ban II. Significant differences were observed in BPV among genotypes of T-786C SNP (p<0.05; Kruskal-Wallis), and among haplotypes of both SNPs (p<0.05; Kruskal-Wallis) as well. In T-786C SNP, carriers of less frequent allele (CC homozygotes and TC heterozygotes) showed significantly greater SBPV(0.1r) and SBPV(0.1a) compared to TT homozygotes (Mann-Whitney; p<0.05). The G894T variant showed no significant differences, but, both SNPs were in linkage disequilibrium (D'=0.37; p<0.01). Carriers of haplotype CT/CT (CC homozygotes of -786C/T and TT homozygotes of G894T) displayed significantly greater SBPV(0.1r), SBPV(0.1a) and DBPV(0.1a) compared to carriers of other haplotype combinations (Kruskal-Wallis; p=0.015, p=0.048, and p=0.026, respectively). In conclusion, the haplotype formed by less frequent alleles of both eNOS variants was associated with increased systolic and diastolic BPV in this study.     

中国汉族人群Toll 样受体4 基因多态性与阿尔茨海默病 相关性研究

目的:探索中国汉族人群Toll样受体4基因Asp299Gly多态性与阿尔茨海默病(AD)相关性。方法:样本来源于2010.01-2012.01上海普陀区人民医院门诊及病房、瑞金医院、华山医院痴呆专病门诊就诊的200例AD患者(年龄在45-85岁之间)与同时期入组的患者配偶或体检中心200例健康对照(统计分析时有10例患者因故剔除),所有入组者为无血缘关系的中国汉族人。AD诊断由神经科专科医生参照美国国立神经病学、语言交流障碍和卒中老年性痴呆和相关疾病学会工作小组(NINCDS-ADRDA)关于AD的诊断标准确定。所有入组者抽取随机静脉血2 ml,血样标本使用双脱氧链终止法进行TLR4基因Asp299Gly突变检测。实验前期随机抽取部分血样进行TLR4蛋白定量测定。因为使用双脱氧链终止法未检测到TLR4基因Asp299Gly突变型,在实验后期我们又使用连接酶检测反应法对其中352例样本进行TLR4基因Asp299Gly突变复测及ApoE等位基因型检测。结果:与对照组相比,AD组外周血TLR4蛋白含量增高,其差异性具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。基因检测结果显示TLR4基因Asp299Gly突变两组均为野生型A,AD组ApoEε4基因型频率(包含纯合子及杂合子)高达35.90%,明显高于对照组(17.35%)。结论:AD组外周血TLR4蛋白表达量增高提示TLR4与AD发病有一定相关性,但没有证据表明TLR4基因Asp299Gly突变与AD发病有相关性。     

Association Between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of DOT1L Gene and Risk of Knee Osteoarthritis in a Chinese Han Population

To investigate associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms rs12982744 and rs12459350 in the DOT1L gene and knee osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility in a Chinese Han population. DOT1L rs12982744 and rs12459350 polymorphisms were genotyped in patients with knee OA and age- and sex-matched OA-free controls from a Chinese Han population. A total of 605 patients with knee OA and 615 controls were enrolled in the study. GC and CC genotypes of rs12982744, and variant C, were associated with a significantly increased risk of knee OA. On stratification analysis, the association between the risk of OA and rs12982744 GC heterozygotes compared with GG homozygotes was stronger in females and those aged >65 years. In contrast, the GA and AA genotypes of rs12459350 were not significantly associated with the risk of knee OA, even after further stratification analysis according to age or sex. Our results showed that DOT1L rs12982744 G to C change and variant C genotype may contribute to knee OA risk in a Chinese Han population.     

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphisms (G894T, 4b/a and T-786C) and preeclampsia: meta-analysis of 18 case-control studies

Studies investigating the association between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene polymorphisms and preeclampsia reported contradictory or nonconclusive results. We performed a meta-analysis of 18 genetic association studies that examined the relationship between preeclampsia and the G894T, 4a/b and T-786C polymorphisms of the eNOS gene. Subgroup analysis by ethnicity and potential sources of heterogeneity and bias were explored. The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Google Scholar databases were searched to access the relevant genetic association studies up to June 2011. For the allelic analysis of the G894T variant, all studies showed no significant association. For the genotypic analysis, the combined studies of the G allele showed negative significance (odds ratio [OR]=0.56; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.33-0.97), all the studies showed positively significance when the T allele was combined (OR=1.17; 95% CI: 1.01-1.36), and results were also positively significant in non-Asian populations (OR=1.20; 95% CI: 1.02-1.43). For the allelic analysis of the 4b/a variant, all studies showed no significant association, but results were negatively significant in non-Asian populations (OR=0.67; 95% CI: 0.46-0.98). For the genotype analysis, combined studies of the b allele showed negative significance (OR=0.55; 95% CI: 0.36-0.84). Moreover, non-Asian studies showed negatively significant results (OR=0.45; 95% CI: 0.28-0.72). For the analysis of the T-786C variant, none of the studies showed significant results. The synthesis of available evidence supports the fact that intron 4a allele, homozygosity for the 894T and intron 4a of eNOS are positively associated with preeclampsia. Large, multiethnic confirmatory, and well-designed studies are needed to determine the relation between preeclampsia and polymorphisms of the eNOS gene.     

Association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of IL23R and IL17 with Ulcerative Colitis Risk in a Chinese Han Population

Background

Previous studies implicated that IL23R and IL17 genes play an important role in autoimmune inflammation. Genome-wide association studies have also identified multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL23R gene region associated with inflammatory bowel diseases. This study examined the association of IL23R and IL17A gene SNPs with ulcerative colitis susceptibility in a population in China.

Methodology

A total of 270 ulcerative colitis and 268 healthy controls were recruited for the analyses of 23 SNPs in the IL23R and IL17A regions. Genomic DNA was extracted and analysis of these 23 SNPs using ligase detection reaction allelic (LDR) technology. Genotype and allele associations were calculated using SPSS 13.0 software package.

Principal Findings

Compared to the healthy controls, the variant alleles IL23R rs7530511, and rs11805303 showed a statistically significant difference for ulcerative colitis susceptibility (0.7% vs 3.3%, P = 0.002; 60.4% vs 53.2%, P = 0.0017, respectively). The linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns of these SNPs were measured and three LD blocks from the SNPs of IL23R and one block from those of IL17A were identified. A novel association with ulcerative colitis susceptibility occurred in haplotypes of IL23R (Block1 H3 P = 0.02; Block2 H2 P = 0.019; Block3 H4 P = 0.029) and IL17A (H4 P = 0.034). Pair-wise analyses showed an interaction between the risk haplotypes in IL23R and IL17A (P = 0.014).

Conclusions

Our study demonstrated that rs7530511, and rs11805303 of IL23R were significantly associated with ulcerative colitis susceptibility in the Chinese population. The most noticeable finding was the linkage of IL23R and IL17A gene region to ulcerative colitis risk due to the gene-gene interaction.     

The T-786C,G894T,and intron 4 VNTR (4a/b) polymorphisms of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene in prostate cancer cases

In previously conducted some studies it has been revealed that nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) system play a significant role in carcinogenesis. Nitric oxide (NO) is regulated by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) enzyme which is one of the isoenzymes of NO synthase (NOS). In this study we have tried to come to a conclusion about whether eNOS gene T-786C, G894T and intron 4 VNTR (4a/b) polymorphisms might be considered as a risk factor causing prostate cancer (PCa) or not. A total of 200 subjects were included in this research. 84 patients with PCa (mean age 70.0 ± 6.4) and 116 healthy controls (mean age 69.9 ± 7.5) were recruited in this case-control study. Genomic DNA was extracted using the QIAamp DNA Blood Mini Kit (QIAGEN GmbH, Maryland, USA), according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. The T-786C, G894T and intron 4 VNTR (4a/b) polymorphisms were amplified using polymerase chain reation (PCR), detected by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). For T-786C polymorphism CC genotype [odds ratio (OR): 0.34, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.15–0.78, P = 0.009)] and allele frequency (OR: 0.631, CI: 0.421–0.946, P = 0.026) is significant for control. In patients with PCa eNOS G894T polymorphism, both GT (OR: 0.069, CI: 0.027–0.174; P = 0.0001) and TT (OR: 0.040, CI: 0.013–0.123; P = 0.0001) genotype distribution, and also T allele frequency (OR: 0.237, CI: 0.155–0.362, P = 0.0001) were considered significant statistically. While genotype distribution for the other polymorphism eNOS, intron 4 VNTR (4a/b), is insignificant statistically, “a” allele frequency was found out to be significant (OR: 2.223, CI: 1.311–3.769, P = 0.003). In this study we indicated that genotype and allele frequencies of eNOS T-786C and G894T polymorphisms are statistically significant in patients with PCa. eNOS T-786C and G894T polymorphisms may be associated with PCa susceptibility in the Turkish population. In contrast, intron 4 VNTR (4a/b) polymorphism may not be related to PCa susceptibility in these patients.

Association Study of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in XRCC1 Gene with the Risk of Gastric Cancer in Chinese Population

Gastric cancer is one of highly cancer-related deaths in the world. Previous evidence suggests that the X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 gene (XRCC1) is one of the most important candidate genes for influencing gastric cancer risk. The objective of this study was to detect the potential association of genetic variants in XRCC1 gene with gastric cancer risk in Chinese Han population. In total, we enrolled 395 gastric cancer patients and 398 cancer-free controls in this study. The genotyping of c.910A>G and c.1804C>A genetic variants in XRCC1 gene were investigate by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and created restriction site-PCR (CRS-PCR) methods, respectively. We found the genotypes/alleles from these two genetic variants were statistically associated with the increased risk of gastric cancer (for c.910A>G, GG versus (vs.) AA: OR = 2.00, 95% CI 1.21-3.31; AG vs. AA: OR = 1.50, 95% CI 1.12-2.02; GG/AG vs. AA: OR = 1.59, 95% CI 1.20-2.10; GG vs. AG/AA: OR = 1.68, 95% CI 1.03-2.73; G vs. A: OR = 1.47, 95% CI 1.18-1.83; for c.1804C>A, AA vs. CC: OR = 2.68, 95% CI 1.46-4.94; AA vs. CA/CC: OR = 2.62, 95% CI 1.44-4.76; A vs. C: OR = 1.33, 95% CI 1.06-1.66). The allele-G of c.910A>G and allele-A of c.1804C>A genetic variants may contribute to gastric cancer susceptibility. These preliminary results indicate that these XRCC1 genetic variants are potentially related to gastric cancer susceptibility in Chinese Han population, and might be used as molecular markers.
