Background
Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and genetic variation of CRP gene have been reported as a strong, independent predictor of myocardial infarction and stroke. But there is rare association evidence of CRP genetic variation and hypertension (HT).Methods
A community-based case–control study including 1331 cases with HT and 1400 controls was used to evaluate the association of tagSNPs covered CRP gene, CRPP1 gene and 40 kb upstream with HT in a Chinese Han population. Haplotypes and stratification analysis were applied to further evaluate relationships between the screened SNPs and HT and general linear model (GLM) was applied to compare blood pressure levels between genotypes.Results
In stage 1, five SNPs had positive association with HT (P < 0.05) and entered stage 2 and two SNPs rs876537 and rs10737175 polymorphisms showed significant association with HT in joint sample. Haplotype analysis showed that comparing with common haplotype T–C which was constructed by rs6677719 and rs10737175, haplotype T–T significantly associated with HT after adjusted covariates. Stratification analysis found significant associations of HT for rs876537, rs2808630, rs6677719 and rs10737175 in ≥ 50 years group, rs876537, rs10737175 in female, rs876537 and rs10737175 in non-smoking and non-drinking populations as well as rs2808630 in non-drinking population. Furthermore, quantitative trait analysis indicated significant differences of SBP and DBP between the genotypes of rs10737175, rs876537 and rs2808630 in non-treatment hypertensive cases and control population.Conclusions
The findings of this study support that CRP gene polymorphisms have significant association with genetic susceptibility of HT and quantitative traits of blood pressure. 相似文献2.
Aim
The tumor suppressor gene Ras association domain family 1 isoform A (RASSF1A) regulates cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and microtubule stability and is inactivated by promoter hypermethylation at a high frequency in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A guanine (G)/thymine (T) common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at first position of codon 133 in RASSF1A gene determines an alanine (Ala) to serine (Ser) (Ala133Ser) amino acidic substitution which may alter cancer risk by influencing the function of RASSF1A protein.Methods
To determine the association of the RASSF1A Ala133Ser polymorphism with the risk of HCC development in a Turkish population, a hospital-based case–control study was designed consisting of 236 subjects with HCC and 236 cancer-free control subjects matched for age, gender, smoking and alcohol status. The genotype frequency of the RASSF1A Ala133Ser polymorphism was determined by using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay.Results
Allele and genotype associations of RASSF1A Ala133Ser polymorphism with HCC susceptibility were observed in comparisons between the patient and control samples (P < 0.001). Risk of HCC development in this Turkish population was significantly increased in carriers of the Ser133 variant allele of Ala133Ser polymorphism (Ala/Ser and Ser/Ser genotypes) when compared with homozygote Ala/Ala genotype (OR = 5.47, 95% CI = 3.63–8.25, P = 0.001).Conclusion
Because our results suggest for the first time that the Ser133 allele of RASSF1A Ala133Ser polymorphism may be a genetic susceptibility factor for HCC in the Turkish population, further independent studies are required to validate our findings in a larger series, as well as in patients of different ethnic origins. 相似文献3.
Background
The chitinase-like 1 protein, YKL-40, is involved in inflammation and tissue remodeling. Patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and acute myocardial infarction have elevated levels of serum YKL-40. The goal of the present study was to investigate whether the chitinase-like 1 gene-329G/A variant (rs10399931) confers susceptibility to CHD, and whether it is associated with the clinical phenotype and severity of disease.Methods
We performed a case-control study of 410 unrelated CHD patients (coronary stenosis ≥ 50% or documented myocardial infarction) and 442 controls from China. A ligase detection reaction was used to determine a single-nucleotide polymorphism in rs10399931. The genotypic and allelic associations of this single-nucleotide polymorphism with CHD, phenotypes and severity were also evaluated. Plasma levels of YKL-40 were measured using ELISA assays.Results
Three genotypes, CC, CT, and TT, existed in rs10399931 and there were no significant differences found in either the genotypic or allelic frequencies between the CHD cases and controls. Patients with CHD had higher YKL-40 levels compared to controls and those with acute myocardial infarction had the highest levels of YKL-40 compared to patients with either stable or unstable angina pectoris (all p < 0.01). Rs10399931 affected neither the main anthropometric or metabolic characteristics, nor did there exists any association between rs10399931 and the severity of coronary lesions assessed by Gensini scores (all p > 0.05).Conclusions
Our results do not support that rs10399931 is associated with clinical phenotypes of CHD and the extent of coronary lesions; however, YKL-40 levels are higher in CHD patients and associated with its clinical phenotypes. 相似文献4.
Objective
Genetic factors play an important role in modulating the vulnerability to body mass index (BMI). The purpose of this study is to identify novel genetic variants for BMI using genome-wide association (GWA) meta-analysis.Methods
PLINK software was used to perform meta-analysis of two GWA studies (the FUSION and Marshfield samples) of 5218 Caucasian individuals with BMI. A replication study was conducted using the SAGE sample with 762 individuals.Results
Through meta-analysis we identified 33 SNPs associated with BMI with p < 10− 4. The most significant association was observed with rs2967951 (p = 1.19 × 10− 6) at 5p15.2 within ROPN1L gene. Two additional SNPs within ROPN1L and 5 SNPs within MARCH6 (the top SNP was rs2607292 with 4.27 × 10− 6) further supported the association with BMI on 5p15.2 (p < 1.8 × 10− 5). Conditional analysis on 5p15.2 could not distinguish the effects of ROPN1L and MARCH6. Several SNPs within MARCH6 and ROPN1L were replicated in the SAGE sample (p < 0.05).Conclusion
We identified a novel locus for BMI. These findings offer the potential for new insights into the pathogenesis of BMI and obesity and will serve as a resource for replication in other populations to elucidate the potential role of these genetic variants in BMI and obesity. 相似文献5.
Aim
P53 plays a critical role in the maintenance of genomic stability as well as the control of cell growth and apoptosis. Recently, an uncommon P53 genetic variant (rs78378222) was reported to be significantly associated with multiple cancers in Caucasians in a genome-wide association study. rs78378222 locates in the 3′-untranslated region of the P53 gene, and this A-to-C polymorphism results in changes of the AATAAA polyadenylation signal to AATACA, which leads to impaired 3′-end processing of P53 mRNA and decreased P53 expression.Methods
We evaluated the association between this polymorphism and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) risk in a case–control cohort consisting of 405 ESCC patients and 810 healthy controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by logistic regression.Results
We did observe this polymorphism with low minor allele frequency in Chinese Han population. Additionally, significantly increased ESCC risk was associated with P53 rs78378222 A > C polymorphism. Compared with rs78378222AA carriers, the OR of developing ESCC for AC carriers was 3.22 (95% CI = 1.71 − 6.33, P = 1.34 × 10− 4).Conclusion
These results suggest that this functional uncommon P53 rs78378222 variant is associated with ESCC risk in the current Han Chinese population. 相似文献6.
Objective
Zinc-α2-glycoprotein (ZAG) has been identified recently as a novel adipokine due to its close link with lipid and glucose metabolism, as well as regulation of body weight. The aim of our present study is to investigate the ZAG genetic polymorphism association with obesity in Chinese north Han population.Design and methods
Five SNPs of ZAG gene including rs2247607 (A>T), rs4727442 (G>T), rs4215 (A>G), rs2527923 (C>T) and rs2527882 (C>T) were genotyped in 648 overweight/obese patients and 313 healthy controls by TaqMan-PCR methods. Crosstabs statistical analysis method with subjects stratifying by age (≦ 30 y, 31–45 y, ≧ 46 y) and gender was used.Results
The results showed the constitution of three genotype frequencies in rs4215 (A>G) site significantly differs in male subgroup (aged 31–45 y) between overweight/obese and healthy control group (χ2 = 6.401, P = 0.041). GG genotype frequency in overweight/obese group is 19.3% which is much higher than 6.1% in healthy control group. Further statistical analysis under a recessive inheritance model demonstrated odd ratio (OR) for GG vs. AA+AG in overweight/obese group was 3.674 (95% CI 1.049–12.866; P = 0.035). Among three genotypes of rs4215, the subjects with GG genotype have much more higher body weight, BMI, waist circumference and SBP.Conclusion
Our data, for the first time, suggest the genotypes of rs4215 in ZAG gene are significantly associated with obesity in Chinese north Han population. GG genotype subjects in rs4215 site have an increased susceptibility to obesity when compared with the AA+AG genotype subjects. 相似文献7.

Background
Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults. Despite several factors such as ionizing radiation exposure or rare genetic syndromes have been associated with the development of glioblastoma, no underlying cause has been identified for the majority of cases. We thus aimed to investigate the role of DNA repair polymorphisms in modulating glioblastoma risk.Methods
Genotypic and allelic frequencies of seven common polymorphisms in DNA repair genes involved in nucleotide excision repair (ERCC1 rs11615, ERCC2 rs13181, ERCC6 rs4253079), base excision repair (APEX1 rs1130409, XRCC1 rs25487), double-strand break repair (XRCC3 rs861539) and mismatch repair (MLH1 rs1800734) pathways were analyzed in 115 glioblastoma patients and 200 healthy controls. Haplotype analysis was also performed for ERCC1 rs11615 and ERCC2 rs13181 polymorphisms, located on the same chromosomal region (19q13.32).Results
Our results indicated that carriers of the ERCC2 Gln/Gln genotype were associated with a lower glioblastoma risk (OR = 0.32, 95% CI 0.12–0.89; P = 0.028), whereas carriers of the MLH1 AA genotype were associated with an increased risk of glioblastoma (OR = 3.14, 95% CI 1.09–9.06; P = 0.034). Furthermore, the haplotype containing the C allele of ERCC2 rs13181 polymorphism and the T allele of ERCC1 rs11615 polymorphism was significantly associated with a protective effect of developing glioblastoma (OR = 0.34, 95% CI 0.16–0.71; P = 0.004).Conclusions
These results pointed out that MLH1 rs1800734 and ERCC2 rs13181 polymorphisms might constitute glioblastoma susceptibility factors, and also suggested that the chromosomal region 19q could be important in glioblastoma pathogenesis. 相似文献8.

Introduction
Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed in women worldwide. Mammalian cells are constantly exposed to a wide variety of genotoxic agents from both endogenous and exogenous sources. The RAD51 protein is required for meiotic and mitotic recombination and plays a central role in homology-dependent recombinational repair of double-strand breaks (DSBs). Given the functional relevance of the DNA repair system on carcinogenesis, potential associations between genetic polymorphisms of DNA repair genes, cancer risk and response to therapy have been intensively evaluated. This is the first study evaluating the role of the RAD51 G172T genetic variants in cancer prognosis and clinical outcome of cervical cancer patients.Material and methods
We analyzed RAD51 G172T polymorphism genotypes in cervical cancer patients who underwent a platinum-based chemotherapy in combination with radiotherapy. Genotyping was performed by Taqman™ Allelic Discrimination methodology.Results and discussion
Concerning the overall survival rates found using Kaplan–Meier method and Log Rank Test, we observed that the mean survival rates were statistically different according to the patients RAD51 genotypes. The group of patients carrying the T allele present a higher mean survival rate than the other patients (102.3 months vs. 86.4 months, P = 0.020). Using the Cox regression analysis, we found an increased overall survival time for T-carrier patients, when compared with GG genotype, with tumor stage, age and presence of lymph nodes as covariates [hazard ratio (HR), 0.373; 95% CI, 0.181–0.770; P = 0.008]. Among patients (n = 193), RAD51 genotype frequency distributions were not under the influence of clinicopathologic characteristics, namely, treatment response (P = 0.508), recurrence (P = 0.150) and tumor stage (P = 0.250).Conclusions
This is the first study evaluating the role of the RAD51 G172T genetic variants in cancer prognosis and clinical outcome of cervical cancer patients. Our results indicate an influence of the RAD51 genetic variants in overall survival of cervical cancer. Thereby, RAD51 G172T genotypes may provide additional prognostic information in cervical cancer patients who underwent cisplatin-based chemotherapy in combination with radiotherapy. 相似文献9.
Background and aims
Sustained interaction of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) with their receptor RAGE and subsequent signaling plays an important role in the development of diabetic complications. Genetic variation of RAGE gene may be associated with the development of vascular complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Objectives
The present study aimed to explore the possible association of RAGE gene polymorphisms namely − 374T/A, − 429T/C and G82S with serum level of AGEs, paraoxonase (PON1) activity and macro-vascular complications (MVC) in Indian type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (T2DM).Methods
A total of 265 diabetic patients, including DM without any complications (n = 135), DM-MVC (n = 130) and 171 healthy individuals were enrolled. Genotyping of RAGE variants were assessed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Serum AGEs were estimated by ELISA and fluorometrically. and PON1 activity was assessed spectrophotometrically.Results
Of the three examined SNPs, association of − 429T/C polymorphism with MVC in T2DM was observed (OR = 3.001, p = 0.001) in the dominant model. Allele ‘A’ of − 374T/A polymorphism seems to confer better cardiac outcome in T2DM. Patients carrying C allele (− 429T/C) and S allele (G82S) had significantly higher AGEs levels. − 429T/C polymorphism was also found to be associated with low PON1 activity. Interaction analysis revealed that the risk of development of MVC was higher in T2DM patients carrying both a CC genotype of − 429T/C polymorphism and a higher level of AGEs (OR = 1.343, p = 0.040).Conclusion
RAGE gene polymorphism has a significant effect on AGEs level and PON1 activity in diabetic subjects compared to healthy individuals. Diabetic patients with a CC genotype of − 429T/C are prone to develop MVC, more so if AGEs levels are high and PON1 activity is low. 相似文献10.

Background
Although dietary treatments can successfully reduce blood lipids in hypercholesterolemic subjects, individual variation in that response has on occasion been linked to allelic differences. SNP rs12449157 has shown association with HDL-C concentrations in GWAS and falls in the glucose-fructose oxidoreductase domain containing 2 (GFOD2) locus. Of interest, previous data suggest that this SNP may be under environmentally driven selection. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess if rs12449157 may mediate the response of lipid traits to a dietary supplementation (DS) with soy protein and soluble fiber in a Mexican population with hypercholesterolemia.Methods
Forty-one subjects with hypercholesterolemia were given a low saturated fat diet (LSFD) for 1 month, followed by a LSFD + DS that included 25 g of soy protein and 15 g of soluble fiber (S/SF) daily for 2 months. Anthropometric, clinical, biochemical and dietary variables were determined. We analyzed the gene–diet interaction between the GFOD2 genotype, with the minor allele frequency of 0.24, and the DS on total cholesterol (TC) and LDL-C concentrations.Results
Hypercholesterolemic subjects with GFOD2 rs12449157 G allele had higher serum TC and LDL-C at the baseline and showed a greater response to the LSCD + S/SF (− 83.9 and − 57.5 mg/dl, respectively) than those with GFOD2 AA genotype (− 40.1 and − 21.8 mg/dl, respectively) (P = 0.006 for TC, 0.025 for LDL-C, respectively).Conclusion
The observed differences in allele-driven, diet-induced changes in blood lipids may be the result of a recent environmentally driven selection on the rs12449157 minor allele. Variation in the GFOD2 gene contributes to the genetic basis for a differential response to a cholesterol- or lipid-lowering diet. 相似文献11.

Introduction
MicroRNAs (miRs) play important roles in the development and progression of human cancers. MiR-146a down-regulates epidermal growth factor receptor and the nuclear factor-κB regulatory kinase interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 genes that play important roles in lung carcinogenesis. This study was conducted to evaluate the association between rs2910164C>G, a functional polymorphism in the pre-miR-146a, and lung cancer risk.Material and methods
The rs2910164C>G genotypes were determined in 1094 patients with lung cancer and 1100 healthy controls who were frequency matched for age and gender.Results
The rs2910164 CG or GG genotype was associated with a significantly decreased risk for lung cancer compared to that of the CC genotype (adjusted odds ratio = 0.80, 95% confidence interval = 0.66–0.96, P = 0.02). When subjects were stratified according to smoking exposure (never, light and heavy smokers), the effect of the rs2910164C>G genotype on lung cancer risk was significant only in never smokers (adjusted odds ratio = 0.66, 95% confidence interval = 0.45–0.96, P = 0.03, under a dominant model for the C allele) and decreased as smoking exposure level increased (Ptrend < 0.001). In line with this result, the level of miR-146a expression in the tumor tissues was significantly higher in the GG genotype than in the CC or CG genotype only in never-smokers (P = 0.02).Conclusions
These findings suggest that the rs2910164C>G in pre-miR-146a may contribute to genetic susceptibility to lung cancer, and that miR-146a might be involved in lung cancer development. 相似文献12.
Objective
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is an important lipo-polysaccharide (LPS) receptor in gastric epithelial cell signaling transduction and plays critical roles in the development and progression of gastric cancer (GC). We investigated the effects of TLR4 gene polymorphisms and gene–environmental interactions on the risk of GC in Northeastern China.Methods
We genotyped two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TLR4 (rs10116253 and rs1927911) in 217 GC patients and 294 cancer-free controls using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated by unconditional logistic-regression models.Results
Individuals carrying CC genotype of rs10116253 and TT genotype of rs1927911 had a significantly decreased risk of GC (adjusted OR = 0.33, 95% CI 0.18–0.60, P < 0.001 and adjusted OR = 0.37, 95% CI 0.21–0.67, P = 0.001 respectively), compared with TT genotype of rs10116253 and CC genotype of rs1927911. In addition, the SNP effects were additive to the effects of some known environmental factors without any interaction between them in the susceptibility to GC.Conclusion
Our data suggested that TLR4 gene polymorphisms may be associated with a decreased risk of GC in Chinese population. And these SNPs and their combined effects with environmental factors may be associated with the risk of GC. 相似文献13.

Background
Recent studies suggested that resting heart rate (RHR) might be an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Nonetheless, the interrelation between RHR and cardiovascular diseases is not clear. In order to resolve this puzzle, the importance of genetic determinants of RHR has been recently suggested, but it needs to be further investigated.Objective
The aim of this study was to estimate the contribution of common genetic variations on RHR using Genome Wide Association Study.Methods
We performed a Genome Wide Association Study in an isolated population cohort of 1737 individuals, the Italian Network on Genetic Isolates — Friuli Venezia Giulia (INGI-FVG). Moreover, a haplotype analysis was performed. A regression tree analysis was run to highlight the effect of each haplotype combination on the phenotype.Results
A significant level of association (p < 5 × 10− 8) was detected for Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in two genes expressed in the heart: MAML1 and CANX. Founding that the three different variants of the haplotype, which encompass both genes, yielded a phenotypic correlation. Indeed, a haplotype in homozygosity is significantly associated with the lower quartile of RHR (RHR ≤ 58 bpm). Moreover no significant association was found between cardiovascular risk factors and the different haplotype combinations.Conclusion
Mastermind-like 1 and Calnexin were found to be associated with RHR. We demonstrated a relation between a haplotype and the lower quartile of RHR in our populations. Our findings highlight that genetic determinants of RHR may be implicated in determining cardiovascular diseases and could allow a better risk stratification. 相似文献14.

The association between passive smoking and breast cancer risk differs in pre- and post-menopausal women. We aimed to explore the modification effects of PARP1 rs1136410 and ESR1 rs2234693 on the association between passive smoking and breast cancer risk among pre- and post-menopausal women.Design and methods
A case–control study of 839 breast cancer cases and 863 controls was conducted. The gene–environment interactions were tested after adjusting for potential breast cancer risk factors with unconditional logistic regression models.Results
We found that the effect of passive smoking was modified by the genotypes in both pre- and post-menopausal women, but in opposite directions. The combination of the TC/CC genotypes of ESR1 rs2234693 and passive smoking significantly increased the risk of breast cancer [OR (95%CI): 2.06 (1.39–3.05)] in pre-menopausal women. A significant association was observed between TT genotype and passive smoking [OR (95%CI): 2.40 (1.27–4.53)] in postmenopausal women. For PARP1 rs1136410, similar differential associations were observed, but the interactions were not significant.Conclusions
These results imply that the risk of breast cancer from passive smoking may be influenced by genetic factors, and that the association may differ depending on menopausal status. 相似文献15.

Introduction
Several proteins of renin–angiotensin system (RAS) have been implicated in the process of growth promotion or inhibition of breast tissue and cancer cells. This study aimed to investigate the association between angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) and angiotensin receptor-1 (AGTR1) A1166C polymorphisms and survival of 110 women with breast cancer.Materials and methods
The I/D and A1166C polymorphisms were evaluated by using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) in 110 breast cancer patients who had been treated between 2007 and 2009. Genomic DNA was extracted from a Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tissue of breast cancer sample blocks. All the potential clinical and pathological prognostic variables were analyzed to establish the impact of I/D and A1166C polymorphisms on disease-free and overall survival rates. Disease-free and overall survival rates were the primary endpoints of the study.Results
The ACE (I/D) polymorphism was associated with 3-year disease-free survival. Disease-free survival in DD carriers was significantly increased compared to ID plus II carriers (HR = 4.75; 95% CI, 1.39–16.24; p = 0.013). No significant association was found between AGTR1 (A1166C) and 3-year disease-free survival (p = 0.233). Also, the ACE (I/D) and AGTR1 (A1166C) polymorphisms were not associated with breast cancer overall survival.Conclusion
The ACE (I/D) polymorphism was associated with 3-year disease-free survival of the women with breast cancer. Besides, disease-free survival in DD carriers was significantly increased compared to ID plus II carriers. 相似文献16.

Background
Recent studies have suggested that common genetic polymorphisms alter the processing of microRNA (miRNA) and may be associated with the development and progression of cancer.Patients and methods
The association of miRNA polymorphisms with HCC survival was analyzed in 159 HCC patients and 201 controls by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method.Results
The risk of HCC was significantly lower for the miR-499A>G, AG + GG in HCC patients (AOR = 0.603, 95% CI = 0.370–0.984) and hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related HCC patients (AOR = 0.561, 95% CI 0.331–0.950). In addition, the risk of HCC was significantly lower for the miR-149C>T, CT and CT + CC in HCC patients (CT; AOR = 0.542, 95% CI = 0.332–0.886, CT + CC; AOR = 0.536, 95% CI = 0.335–0.858) and HBV-related HCC patients (CT: AOR = 0.510, 95% CI 0.305–0.854, CT + CC: AOR = 0.496, 95% CI 0.302–0.813). The miR-149C>T polymorphism was also associated with survival rate of HCC patients in OKUDA II stage.Conclusions
miR-149C>T and miR-499A>G were associated with HBV-related HCC. Further studies on larger populations will need to be conducted to confirm these results. 相似文献17.

There are no data regarding the possible role of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of class I histone deacetylases (HDACs) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). We designed this study to examine whether polymorphisms of HDACs can be implicated in that disease.Methods
A community-based, case–control study was conducted, with a total of 568 subjects (284 patients and 284 controls) enrolled. Four polymorphisms of HDAC1 (rs1741981) and HDAC3 (rs11741808, rs2547547, rs2530223) were examined by the use of TaqMan technology.Results
We found a significant association with risk of type 2 DM for three SNPs of HDAC3, including rs11741808 [odds ratio (OR) = 0.53, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.35–0.81], rs2547547 [OR = 1.72, 95% CI: 1.13–2.64], and rs2530223 [OR = 1.39; 95% CI: 1.01–1.91]. Subgroup analysis showed that BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2, high triglyceride and high blood pressure, together with the rs11741808AG genotype, were associated with a significantly decreased risk for type 2 DM, with ORs of 0.50 (95% CI: 0.27–0.91), 0.38 (95% CI: 0.20–0.71) and 0.43 (95% CI: 0.24–0.76) compared with the AA genotype, respectively. In a population with normal total cholesterol, the AG genotype yielded a significantly decreased risk of type 2 DM risk, with an OR of 0.42 (95% CI: 0.25–0.70) when compared with the persons of the AA genotype. For rs2547547, in a population with normal total cholesterol and triglyceride, the AG genotype was associated with a significantly increased risk of type 2 DM, with ORs of 1.92 (95% CI: 1.17–3.15) and 2.24 (95% CI: 1.28–3.94) when compared with the population carrying the AA genotype.Conclusions
The results suggest that variants of HDAC3 contribute to an increased prevalence of type 2 DM in the Chinese Han population. 相似文献18.
