The key role in platelet aggregation is played by the platelet ADP receptor P2Y12, which is the target for antiaggregant drugs, clopidogrel and ticlopidine. At present, only sporadic data on genetic variants of platelet ADP receptor P2Y12 are available from literature, and their association with thromboembolic and cardiovascular diseases still remains obscure. Analysis of the group of subjects with high platelet reactivity resulted in identification of two nucleotide substitutions, C18T and G36T, in the coding region of the P2Y12 gene. The frequency of the P2Y12 T18 allele was higher in control group than in the group of patients survived from myocardial infarction at the age under 45 years (39% versus 28%, respectively, P = 0.04). Moreover, in the T18 carriers, platelet aggregation activity was lower than in the carriers of the wild-type genotype (0.84 ± 0.05%/s versus 1.01 ± 0.08%/s, respectively, P = 0.03). In the group of patients with early myocardial infarctions, a tendency towards the increased frequency of T36 allele in comparison with control group (20 and 12%, respectively, P = 0.07) was observed. The rate of ADP-induced platelet aggregation in the carriers of T36 allele from the control group was somewhat higher than in the subjects with the GG36 genotype (1.31 ± 0.16%/s versus 1.12 ± 0.06%/s, respectively, P = 0.07). The nucleotide substitutions identified were in lincage disequilibrium, i.e., allele T18 conformed to allele G36. On the contrary, allele C18 conformed to allele T36. Haplotype T18G36 was found to be responsible for the decreased risk of myocardial infarction and decreased platelet reactivity. It is suggested that polymorphisms of the P2Y12 gene identified can be used for determination of the risk group for myocardial infarction in the young males.  相似文献

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 is essential for the metabolism of clinically used drugs including omeprazole, proguanil, and S-mephenytoin. This hepatic enzyme exhibits genetic polymorphism with inter-individual variability in catalytic activity. This study aimed to characterise the functional consequences of CYP2C19*23 (271 G>C, 991 A>G) and CYP2C19*24 (991 A>G, 1004 G>A) in vitro. Mutations in CYP2C19 cDNA were introduced by site-directed mutagenesis, and the CYP2C19 wild type (WT) as well as variants proteins were subsequently expressed using Escherichia coli cells. Catalytic activities of CYP2C19 WT and those of variants were determined by high performance liquid chromatography-based essay employing S-mephenytoin and omeprazole as probe substrates. Results showed that the level of S-mephenytoin 4′-hydroxylation activity of CYP2C19*23 (V max 111.5 ± 16.0 pmol/min/mg, K m 158.3 ± 88.0 μM) protein relative to CYP2C19 WT (V max 101.6 + 12.4 pmol/min/mg, K m 123.0 ± 19.2 μM) protein had no significant difference. In contrast, the K m of CYP2C19*24 (270.1 ± 57.2 μM) increased significantly as compared to CYP2C19 WT (123.0 ± 19.2 μM) and V max of CYP2C19*24 (23.6 ± 2.6 pmol/min/mg) protein was significantly lower than that of the WT protein (101.6 ± 12.4 pmol/min/mg). In vitro intrinsic clearance (CLint = V max/K m) for CYP2C19*23 protein was 85.4 % of that of CYP2C19 WT protein. The corresponding CLint value for CYP2C19*24 protein reduced to 11.0 % of that of WT protein. These findings suggested that catalytic activity of CYP2C19 was not affected by the corresponding amino acid substitutions in CYP2C19*23 protein; and the reverse was true for CYP2C19*24 protein. When omeprazole was employed as the substrate, K m of CYP2C19*23 (1911 ± 244.73 μM) was at least 100 times higher than that of CYP2C19 WT (18.37 ± 1.64 μM) and V max of CYP2C19*23 (3.87 ± 0.74 pmol/min/mg) dropped to 13.4 % of the CYP2C19 WT (28.84 ± 0.61 pmol/min/mg) level. Derived from V max/K m, the CLint value of CYP2C19 WT was 785 folds of CYP2C19*23. K m and V max values could not be determined for CYP2C19*24 due to its low catalytic activity towards omeprazole 5′-hydroxylation. Therefore, both CYP2C19*23 and CYP2C19*24 showed marked reduced activities of metabolising omeprazole to 5-hydroxyomeprazole. Hence, carriers of CYP2C19*23 and CYP2C19*24 allele are potentially poor metabolisers of CYP2C19-mediated substrates.  相似文献

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is regarded as multifactorial, polygenic disease; its development is the result of autoimmune and neurodegenerative processes which lead to multifocal lesions of the central nervous system. The aim of the study was to analyze associations between MS and polymorphic markers rs3129934 (C6orf10), rs1109670 (DDEF2/MBOAT2 gene), rs9523762 (GPC5 gene), rs28362491 (NFKB1 gene), rs10974944 (JAK2 gene), and rs2304256 (TYK2 gene). The material for the study was DNA samples of unrelated MS patients (N = 224) aged 17 to 67 years and individuals of a control group (N = 312) aged 18 to 66 years. Both samples were formed from the ethnic group of Russians. The results of the investigation demonstrated that, for women, MS was associated with genotypes rs3129934*C/T (p = 0.001, OR = 2.23), rs3129934*T/T (p = 0.028, OR = 4.04), and rs2304256*C/C (p = 0.049, OR = 1.6); for men, with genotype rs1109670*C/A (p = 0.017, OR = 2.06). In addition, using the APSampler algorithm, we identified combinations of alleles associated with increased risk of MS separately for women and men, in which the most frequent alleles of polymorphic markers were rs3129934*T, rs1109670*C, rs10974944*G, and rs2304256*C.  相似文献

Aim

This study explores clinical outcome in cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19)-related poor metaboliser patients treated with either clopidogrel or prasugrel after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and investigates whether this could be cost-effective.

Methods and results

This single-centre, observational study included 3260 patients scheduled for elective PCI between October 2010 and June 2013 and followed for adverse cardiovascular events until October 2014. Post PCI, CYP2C19 poor metaboliser patients were treated with clopidogrel or prasugrel, in addition to aspirin. In total, 32 poor metabolisers were treated with clopidogrel and 41 with prasugrel. The number of adverse cardiovascular events, defined as death from cardiovascular cause, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, every second visit to the catheterisation room for re-PCI in the same artery, or stroke, within 1.5 years of PCI, was significantly higher in the CYP2C19 poor metaboliser group treated with clopidogrel (n = 10, 31?%) compared with the poor metaboliser group treated with prasugrel (n = 2, 5?%) (p = 0.003). Costs per gained quality-adjusted life years (QALY) were estimated, showing that genotype-guided post-PCI treatment with prasugrel could be cost-effective with less than € 10,000 per gained QALY.

Conclusion

This study provides evidence that for CYP2C19-related poor metabolisers prasugrel may be more effective than clopidogrel to prevent major adverse cardiovascular events after PCI and this approach could be cost-effective.

The 23 polymorphic variants in genes encoding the enzymes of xenobiotics biotransformation (CYP1A1 (rs4646903), CYP1A2 (rs762551), GSTP1 (rs1138272, rs1695), GSTM1 (del), and GSTT1 (del)), DNA repair (XRCC1 (rs25489, rs25487), APEX1 (rs1130409), hOGG1 (rs1052133), ADPRT (rs1136410), XPD (rs13181), XPG (rs17655), XPC (rs2228001), ATM (rs1801516), NBS (rs1805794), XRCC2 (rs3218536), and XRCC3 (rs861539)), antioxidant system (MnSOD (rs4880) and GPx1 (rs1050450)), cell cycle control and apoptosis (TP53 (rs1042522)), DNA methylation (MTHFR (rs1801133) and MTR (rs1805087)), and chromosomal aberrations in lymphocytes in the workers at thermal power plants were analyzed. We found that allelic variants in the CYP1A1 (rs4646903), hOGG1 (rs1052133), XRCC1 (rs25487), and APEX1 (rs1130409) genes were associated with an increased level of chromosomal aberrations in workers. Informative models of gene-gene interactions including CYP1A1 (rs4646903, T>C), CYP1A2 (rs762551, C>A), GSTT1 (del); XRCC1 (rs25487, G>A), MTHFR (rs1801133, C>T), GSTT1 (del); XRCC1 (rs25487, G>A), APEX1 (rs1130409, T>G), TP53 (rs1042522, G>C) determining the formation of the increased frequency of chromosomal aberrations in the workers at coal thermal power plants were discovered.  相似文献

An analysis of the frequency of H63D (c.187C>G) mutations in the HFE gene in 19 populations from Central Eurasia demonstrated that the distribution of the mutation in the region of interest was not uniform and that there were the areas of H63D accumulation. The investigation of three polymorphic variants, c.340+4T>C (rs2071303, IVS2(+4)T>C), c.893-44T>C (rs1800708, IVS4(-44)T>C), and c.1007-47G>A (rs1572982, IVS5(-47)A>G), in the HFE gene in individuals homozygous for H63D mutations in the HFE gene revealed the linkage of H63D with three haplotypes, *CTA, *TTG, and *TTA. These findings indicated the partial spread of the mutation in Central Eurasia from Western Europe, as well as the possible repeated appearance of the mutation on the territory on interest.  相似文献

Epidemiological genetics established that heritability in determining the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) is substantially greater when MI occurs early in life. However, the genetic architecture of early-onset and late-onset MI was not compared. We analyzed genotype frequencies of SNPs in/near 20 genes whose protein products are involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis in two groups of Russian patients with MI: the first group included patients with age of first MI onset <60 years (N?=?230) and the second group with onset ≥60 years (N?=?174). The control group of corresponding ethnicity consisted of 193 unrelated volunteers without cardiovascular diseases (93 individuals were over 60 years). We found that in the group of patients with age of onset <60 years, SNPs FGB rs1800788*T, TGFB1 rs1982073*T/T, ENOS rs2070744*C and CRP rs1130864*T/T were associated with risk of MI, whereas in patients with age of onset ≥60 years, only TGFB1 rs1982073*T/T was associated with risk of MI. Using APSampler software, we found composite markers associated with MI only in patients with early onset: FGB rs1800788*T?+?TGFB1 rs1982073*T; FGB rs1800788*T?+?LPL rs328*C?+?IL4 rs2243250*C; FGB rs1800788*T?+?ENOS rs2070744*C (Fisher p values of 1.4?×?10?6 to 2.2?×?10?5; the permutation p values of 1.1?×?10?5 to 3.0?×?10?4; ORs?=?2.67–2.54). Alleles included in the combinations were associated with MI less significantly and with lower ORs than the combinations themselves. The result showed a substantially greater contribution of the genetic component in the development of MI if it occurs early in life, and demonstrated the usefulness of genetic testing for young people.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to describe the impact of sex and cytochrome P450 3A5 (CYP3A5) variant on the blood concentration of tacrolimus in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis. The blood concentration of tacrolimus (ng/mL) divided by the daily dose of tacrolimus (mg/day) and the patient’s weight (kg) (C/D) was obtained from 55 patients. The C/D value was analysed according to genetic variation in CYP3A5 or ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1), sex, and age. The C/D value in the CYP3A5*3/*3 group was significantly higher than in the CYP3A5*1/*1 and *1/*3 groups (p < 0.05, effect size: d = 1.40). In the CYP3A5*3/*3 group, the concentration of tacrolimus was significantly higher in men than in women (p < 0.05, effect size: d = 1.78). Furthermore, in the CYP3A5*3/*3 group, the concentration of tacrolimus was significantly higher in women aged over 50 years than in women aged under 50 years (p < 0.05, effect size: d = 1.18). In contrast, ABCB1 genetic variations did not show any significant effect on the C/D value. Since the blood concentration of tacrolimus in patients with CYP3A5*3/*3 varies depending on sex and age, these factors should be considered when studying the difference of sex in CYP3A.  相似文献

Objectives and Backgrounds

Cardiovascular events occure as a result of various risk factors, such as uric acid (UA), inflammation, hormones and other materials that induce C- reactive protein (CRP) expression. These factors lead to complement activation, and endothelial damages. Damaged endothelial cells release heparan sulfate which inhibits tissue factor activity and von Willed brand factor (VWVF) and causes aggregation. Finally this cascade of events cause platelets aggregation and leads to heart ischemia and cardiovascular events.

Discussion

Anti-platelet therapy is an interesting premise. Anti-platelet resistance patients and bleeding as a result of using ticagrelor and prasugrel should be considered in this treatment methods. Anti-platelet drugs such as clopidogrel are prescribed in cardiovascular events. Platelets have VWF receptors and P2Y12 receptors on their surface, and thus, targeting these receptors can be useful in treatment. The active metabolites of clopidogrel bind to P2Y12R and inhibit ADP binding; thus, clopidogrel inhibits aggregation by interfering in several events as a result of the inhibition of ADP attachment to P2Y12R of the platelet. However, the polymorphisms of P2Y12 and other genes mentioned in Table 1 showed treatment resistance in anti-platelet therapy, highlighting that these SNPs can be helpful in anti-platelet therapy.

Conclusion

The knowledge of these SNPs may decrease the number of unwanted effects that endanger patients with cardiovascular diseases and avoids ineffective anti-platelet therapy in several patients. Clopidogrel, ticagrelor, prasugrel, and aspirin and CYP2C19 and their SNPs are very important subjects in anti-platelet therapy. To present the importance of using pharmacogenetics in anti-platelet therapy, we discuss here the association between these drugs and the SNPs for therapeutic resistance.

Atherosclerosis represents an inflammatory response to the disturbance of the endothelial layer in the arterial bloodstream. In the present study, an analysis of associations of polymorphic markers for the genes controlling synthesis of proteins involved in atherosclerosis pathogenesis in coronary atherosclerosis (CA) patients (217 subjects) and in a control group (250 subjects) was conducted. The following genes were examined: rs991804 (CCL2 gene), rs1126579 (CXCR2 gene), rs4074 (CXCL1 gene), rs4073 (CXCL8 gene), rs333 (CCR5 gene), rs2471859 (CXCR4 gene), rs1801157 (CXCL12 gene), and rs2569190 (CD14 gene). Using the Monte Carlo and Markov chain (APSampler) method, allele/genotype combinations associated with both low and high CA risk were revealed. The most important findings included the following: CXCR4*T/T + CCL2*C + CCR5*I/I (Pperm = 1 × 10–6, OR = 0.44, 95% CI 0.3–0.63), CXCR2*C + CD14*C + CXCL12*G + CCL2*C + CCR5*D (Pperm = 4 × 10–6, OR = 5.78, 95% CI 2.34–14.28), CD14*C + CCL2*C/C + CCR5*D (Pperm = 6.3 × 10–6, OR = 5.81, 95% CI 2.17–15.56), CXCL8*A + CXCR2*C + CD14*T + CXCR4*C (Pperm = 0.01, OR = 3.21, 95% CI 1.63–6.31).  相似文献

Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet prodrug that is recommended to reduce the risk of recurrent thrombosis in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is suggested to be a rate-limiting enzyme in the conversion of 2-oxo-clopidogrel to active thiol metabolite with inconsistent results. Here, we sought to determine the associations of CYP2C19 and PON1 gene polymorphisms with clopidogrel response and their role in ADP-induced platelet aggregation. Clopidogrel response and platelet aggregation were determined using Multiplate aggregometer in 211 patients with established CAD who received 75 mg clopidogrel and 75–325 mg aspirin daily for at least 14 days. Polymorphisms in CYP2C19 and PON1 were genotyped and tested for association with clopidogrel resistance. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) and their epistatic interaction effects on ADP-induced platelet aggregation were analysed. The prevalence of clopidogrel resistance in this population was approximately 33.2% (n = 70). The frequencies of CYP2C19*2 and *3 were significantly higher in non-responder than those in responders. After adjusting for established risk factors, CYP2C19*2 and *3 alleles independently increased the risk of clopidogrel resistance with adjusted ORs 2.94 (95%CI, 1.65–5.26; p<0.001) and 11.26 (95%CI, 2.47–51.41; p = 0.002, respectively). Patients with *2 or *3 allele and combined with smoking, diabetes and increased platelet count had markedly increased risk of clopidogrel resistance. No association was observed between PON1 Q192R and clopidogrel resistance (adjusted OR = 1.13, 95%CI, 0.70–1.82; p = 0.622). Significantly higher platelet aggregation values were found in CYP2C19*2 and *3 patients when compared with *1/*1 allele carriers (p = 1.98×10−6). For PON1 Q192R genotypes, aggregation values were similar across all genotype groups (p = 0.359). There was no evidence of gene-gene interaction or LD between CYP2C19 and PON1 polymorphisms on ADP-induced platelet aggregation. Our findings indicated that only CYP2C19*2 and *3 alleles had an influence on clopidogrel resistance. The risk of clopidogrel resistance increased further with smoking, diabetes, and increased platelet count.  相似文献

Background

Warfarin is a widely prescribed anticoagulant with narrow therapeutic window for thromboembolic events. Warfarin displays large individual variability in dose requirements. The purpose of this study is to assess the contribution of patient-specific and genetic risk factors to dose requirements of patients on either high or low warfarin maintenance dose in Ghana. Blood samples were collected from 141 (62 males, 79 females) Ghanaian patients on stable warfarin dose to determine their INR. Influence of patient specific factors and gene variations within VKORC1, CYP2C9 and CYP4F2 were determined in patients on either high or low warfarin maintenance dose.

Results

One hundred and forty-one patients took part in the study with 79 (56%) participants being Female. The median age of the study participants was 48 years [IQR: 34–58]. The median duration for patients to be on warfarin therapy was 24 months [IQR: 10–72]. Majority of the study participants (80.9%, n = 114) did not have any side effects to warfarin. CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 variant alleles were not detected. VKORC1 variant allele was observed at 6% and CYP4F2 variant allele was observed at 41%. Duration of patients on warfarin therapy was marginally associated with high warfarin dose (adjusted OR = 1.01 [95% CI 1.00–1.02], p = 0.033) while the odds of heterozygous individuals (G/A) for VKORC1 gene to have high warfarin dose compared to persons with homozygous (G/G) (adjusted OR = 0.06 [95% CI 0.01–0.63], p = 0.019). Age, gender, diagnosis, presence of side effects and other medications were not associated with warfarin dose (p = 0.05).

Conclusion

This study provides data on VKORC1 and CYP4F2 variants among an indigenous African population. Duration of patients on warfarin therapy was marginally associated with high warfarin dose. CYP2C9*2 and *3 variants were not detected and may not be the most important genetic factor for warfarin maintenance dose among Ghanaians.

The aim of the present study was to establish the gene frequency of six polymorphisms of the ABCB1, CYP3A5, CYP2C19, and P2RY12 genes in a population resident of Mexico City. The proteins encoded by these genes have been associated with the absorption, and biotransformation of clopidogrel. The ABCB1 T3435C, CYP3A5 V3* A6986G, P2RY12 G52T, P2RY12 C34T, CYP2C19 V2* and V3* (positions G681A and G636A, respectively), polymorphisms were analyzed by 5′ exonuclease TaqMan genotyping assays in a group of 269 healthy unrelated Mexican Mestizo individuals. The CYP2C19 V3* G636A polymorphism was not detected in the Mexican Mestizos population. However, the studied population presented significant differences (P < 0.05) in the distribution of the T3435C, A6986G, G681A, G52T and C34T polymorphisms when compared to reported frequencies of Amerindian of South America, Caucasian, Asian, and African populations. In summary, the distribution of the ABCB1, CYP3A5, CYP2C19, and P2RY12 gene polymorphisms distinguishes to the Mexican Mestizos population from other ethnic groups.  相似文献

The VerifyNow assay is based upon the ability of activated platelets to cross-link beads coated with fibrinogen. However, fibrinogen is an abundant protein of blood, and therefore it may affect test results by competing with fibrinogen of beads for binding to platelets. To test this assumption, we assessed the influence of artificial alteration of fibrinogen level in blood samples obtained from donors (n = 9) and patients on clopidogrel therapy (n = 8) on the results of the VerifyNow P2Y12 assay. Fibrinogen level was altered by adding to blood samples 1/10 volume of fibrinogen solution (10.56 g/liter) or corresponding buffer. Relative to baseline, addition of buffer significantly increased platelet reactivity, whereas addition of fibrinogen decreased it. Analysis of the relationship between change in platelet reactivity values (dBase and dPRU) and change in fibrinogen concentration (dFg) revealed strong negative correlations: dBase =–63.3 × dFg–27.1 (r =–0.924, p < 0.0005) and dPRU =–54.4 × dFg–21.8 (r =–0.764, p < 0.0005). Thus, the results of our experiments suggest that: (i) blood fibrinogen strongly influences results of the VerifyNow P2Y12 assay, and (ii) correcting for fibrinogen effect may be needed to improve the accuracy of the test in the measuring of antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel therapy.  相似文献

Peptic ulcer disease is a chronic disease of the gastrointestinal tract, mainly manifesting itself in the formation of the fairly persistent ulcer defect of the mucous membrane of the stomach and/or duodenum. Association analysis of common polymorphisms of matrix metalloproteinases genes MMP-1 (rs1799750, rs494379), MMP-2 (rs2285052), MMP-3 (rs3025058), MMP-9 (rs3918242, rs17576), and MMP-12 (rs2276109) and their tissue inhibitors TIMP-2 (rs8179090) and TIMP-3 (rs9619311) was carried out in 353 patients with a gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer and in 325 unrelated healthy individuals from the Republic of Bashkortostan. Associations of polymorphic variants rs1799750 and rs494379 of gene MMP-1, rs3025058 of gene MMP-3, rs3918242 and rs17576 of gene MMP-9, and rs9619311 of gene TIMP-3 with the risk of peptic ulcer disease in Russians and Tatars were revealed.  相似文献

The genetic structure of susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the population of Tomsk was studied. We had a group of T1D patients (N = 285) and a population sample (N = 300) and we studied 58 SNPs localized in the 47 genes which products are involved in various metabolic pathways and processes as fibrogenesis, endothelial dysfunction, and inflammation. Genotyping was performed by mass spectrometry using the Sequenom MassARRAY system (United States). We compared the group of T1D patients and the population sample and found an association with the predisposition to disease for seven markers: rs3765124 of the ADAMDEC1 gene, genotype AA (p = 0.004), allele A (p = 0.033); rs1007856 of the ITGB5 gene, genotype TT (p = 0.015), allele T (p = 0.036); rs20579 of the LIG1 gene, genotype CC (p = 0.004), allele C (p = 0.002); rs12980602 of the IFNL2 gene, allele C (p = 0.029); rs4986819 of the PARP4 gene, allele C (p = 0.044); rs1143674 of the ITGA4 gene genotype GG (p = 0.002); rs679620 of the MMP3 gene, genotype AA (p = 0.008). Thus, the products of genes associated with T1D belong to different molecular classes: metalloproteases (ADAMDEC1, MMP3), cytokines (IL28A), cell surface receptors (ITGA4), adhesion molecules (ITGB5), DNA ligases (LIG1), and ribosyltransferase enzymes (PARP4). The ADAMDEC1, ITGA4, and ITGB5 genes belong to two biological processes: cell communication and signal transduction. The LIG1 and PARP4 genes regulate the metabolism of nucleic acids, MMP3 is involved in the regulation of protein metabolism, and the IFNL2 is involved in the immune response.  相似文献

The paper reports a search for association between the relative bone tissue mass (percent of total body mass, %BT) and FokI (rs10735810), BsmI (rs1544410), and TaqαI (rs731236) vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms. The group of apparently healthy young adults born in the central and northern regions of European Russia included 61 men and 60 women aged 16–23 years. No statistical association was detected between the FokI polymorphism and %BT. The carriers of the BsmI *A allele exhibited a higher %BT (p = 0.0172) compared to the subjects bearing the BsmI *G*G allele. The subjects with the *C*C TaqαI genotype were characterized by increased %BT compared to the carriers of the *T allele (p = 0.0018). The data are in good correspondence with the results obtained in the studies involving apparently healthy representatives of Central European and Northern European populations of the corresponding age.  相似文献

Regression analysis has been used to model the combined influence of adverse factors, namely, specific variants of the CRP (rs1130864), IFNG (rs2430561), TGFB1 (rs1982073), FGB (rs1800788), and PTGS1 (rs3842787) genes; age; and smoking on the risk of myocardial infarction in men, as well as the possible interactions between these factors. The individual effects of each considered genetic factor were comparable in strength to the influence of smoking on the risk of myocardial infarction, and the presence of a combination of two or more genetic variants in nonsmokers resulted in a higher risk of myocardial infarction than in noncarrier smokers. A significant interaction between the presence of the FGB allele rs1800788*T and age was discovered; the protective effect of this allele decreased with age and gradually transformed into a predisposing effect. The study demonstrated that the association of FGB rs1800788*T with the risk of myocardial infarction should be considered only in the context of interaction with age.  相似文献

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory system that affects primarily distal respiratory pathways and lung parenchyma. Smoking tobacco is a major risk factor for COPD. The relationship of HTR4 (rs3995090), HTR2A (rs6313), GRIK5 (rs8099939), GRIN2B (rs2268132), and CHRNB4 (rs1948) gene polymorphisms and COPD, as well as the contribution of these polymorphisms to the variations in quantitative characteristics that describe respiratory function, smoking behavior, and nicotine dependence was assessed in an ethnically homogeneous Tatar population. The polymorphisms of HTR2A (rs6313) (P = 0.026, OR = 1.42 for the CC genotype) and GRIN2B (rs2268132) (P = 0.0001, OR = 2.39 for the TT genotype) were significantly associated with increased risk of COPD. The AA genotype of GRIK5 (rs8099939) had a protective effect (P = 0.02, OR = 0.61). Importantly, the HTR2A (rs6313), GRIN2B (rs2268132), and GRIK5 (rs8099939) polymorphisms were only associated with COPD in smokers. Smoking index (pack-years) was significantly higher in carriers of the GRIK5 genotype AC (rs8099939) (P = 0.0027). The TT genotype of GRIN2B (rs2268132) was associated with COPD in subjects with high nicotine dependence according to the Fagerström test (P = 0.002, OR = 2.98). The TT genotype of HTR2A (rs6313) was associated with a reduced risk of the disease in the group with moderate nicotine dependence (P = 0.02, OR = 0.22). The CC genotype of HTR2A (rs6313) and the TT genotype of GRIN2B (rs2268132) were associated with higher levels of nicotine dependence according to the Fagerström test (P = 0.0011 and P = 0.037). Our results may provide insight into potential molecular mechanisms that involve the glutamate (GRIK5, GRIN2B) and serotonin (HTR2A) receptor genes in the pathogenesis of COPD.  相似文献

Since genes involved in microRNA biogenesis pathways have a main role in impaired spermatogenesis, in this research, we evaluated different genotypes frequency of seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms in DICER1 and DROSHA genes. Different genotypes frequency of DICER1 (rs12323635, rs1057035, rs13078 and rs3742330) and DROSHA (rs10719, rs642321 and rs2291102) were determined by sequencing method in 385 infertile men and 120 fertile controls. It was found that CC genotype (P?=?0.000) and C allele (P?=?0.0) of rs1057035 T?>?C polymorphism were associated with idiopathic male infertility (azoospermia). Gene expression study in blood and testis samples was done by real time PCR technique. Our results showed significant under expression of DICER1 gene in blood and testis tissues of azoospermic samples (P?<?0.05), but we did not observed significant difference in expression ratio between infertile men with and without C allele of rs1057035 SNP (P?>?0.05). The results of this study showed that among the studied variants, only one of them in DICER1 might be associated with azoospermia, but additional studies needs in different populations and ethnics.  相似文献
