AimNuclear factor-kappa B inhibitor alpha (IκBα) polymorphisms were found to be associated with inflammatory diseases. However, the association between IκBα polymorphisms with gastric cancer is still unknown. We aim to investigate the association between IκBα polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk in a large population-based case–control study among southern Chinese.Main methodsA population-based case–control study was conducted between 1999 and 2006 in Guangdong Province, China. A total of 1010 gastric cancer patients and 1500 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. IκBα polymorphisms were identified by sequencing of IκBα gene ranging from the 2 kb promoter region to the 3.5 kb genomic region. Polymorphisms in IκBα were analyzed by TaqMan SNP genotyping assay.Key findingsrs17103265 deletion homozygote (?/?) had significantly increased gastric cancer risk (OR = 2.11, 95% CI = 1.17–3.83, P = 0.01), compared with rs17103265 T homozygote (TT). rs17103265 (?/?) genotype was significantly associated with increased risk of intestinal-type gastric cancer with (OR = 2.21, 95% CI = 1.19–4.08, P = 0.01), but not with the diffuse or mix type of gastric cancer. rs17103265 (?/?) was associated with poorly differentiated gastric cancer (OR = 2.05, 95% CI = 1.07–3.94, P = 0.03), but not with moderately or well differentiated gastric cancer. A significant decrease in luciferase activity was observed in rs17103265 deletion allele as compared with the vector containing the rs17103265 T allele (P < 0.0001). rs17103265 polymorphism was not associated with the prognosis of gastric cancer patients.SignificanceIκBα rs17103265 deletion homozygote is a novel genetic risk factor for gastric carcinogenesis, especially for the development of certain subtypes of gastric cancer in southern Chinese population. 相似文献

The recent observations that Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PGC1A) is responsible for the induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) detoxifying agents and that ROS triggers insulin resistance,
support the role that this gene could play in the onset of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Two PGC1A variants Thr394Thr (rs2970847) and Gly482Ser (rs8192673) were genotyped in 822 subjects (351 T2DM cases and 471 controls)
from two North Indian populations, represented as Group 1 (Kashmir population) and Group 2 (Punjab and Jammu population).
Both Groups 1 and 2 showed a significant association of Thr394Thr variant with T2DM after applying Bonferroni corrections
(P = 0.001 and 0.012, respectively). Logistic regression analysis for Thr394Thr susceptible genotypes together (rs2970847 G/A
and A/A) conferred a 1.89-(95%CI 1.25–2.85) fold higher risk for T2DM in Group 1 and 1.81-(95%CI 1.19–2.78) fold risk in Group
2. The susceptible, Ser482 (rs8192673 G/A and A/A) genotypes, gave a 2.04 (95%CI 1.47–3.03) fold higher risk for T2DM in Group
1. Mitochondrial genotype backgrounds observed in association with T2DM (Bhat et al. 2007), when studied in combination with PGC1A variants, showed an increased prevalence in controls with mt10398G and 16189T along with G/G genotype background at the two
polymorphic loci of PGC1A. These observations suggest that the two genotype backgrounds together could provide protection against T2DM.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a viral respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV), which emerged as a pandemic in 2003. The mechanism of the immune reaction initiated by SARS-CoV still remains unclear. Here we aimed to describe the genetic patterns of high-resolution HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1, loci in recovered SARS patients from Beijing and examine the association between HLA genes and susceptibility or resistance to SARS. A total of 70 recovered Chinese Han SARS patients were recruited to donate convalescent plasma in 2003. HLA high-resolution typing was carried out using sequence based typing (SBT). Allele frequencies were calculated by direct counting, and were compared with the frequencies of HLA alleles of donors recruited by the China Marrow Donor Program between 2002 and 2015 using Fisher''s exact test. Significance of association was defined according to the Bonferroni method for multiple comparisons. We observed 20, 35, 21, 25, and 17 alleles respectively at HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 loci among the 70 recovered patients. We identified 12 alleles (HLA-A*02:10, -A*02:93, -A*03:02, -B*08:01, -B*15:152, -B*37:01, -DRB1*10:01, -DRB1*11:03, -DRB1*14:10, -DRB1*14:12, -DRB1*15:02, and -DQB1*05:10) showing a nominal association with SARS (P<0.05), but none remained significant after Bonferroni correction. The study suggests that high-resolution HLA alleles are unlikely to contribute significantly to the susceptibility or resistance to SARS-CoV infection in the northern Chinese population. 相似文献

2′-5′-Oligoadenylate synthetase-like protein (OASL) is an interferon-inducible antiviral protein. Here we describe differential inhibitory activities of human OASL and the two mouse OASL homologs against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) replication. Interestingly, nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) of RSV promoted proteasome-dependent degradation of specific OASL isoforms. We conclude that OASL acts as a cellular antiviral protein and that RSV NS1 suppresses this function to evade cellular innate immunity and allow virus growth. 相似文献

The binding of dUMP, dTMP, UMP, and 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridylate (FdUMP) to Lactobacillus casei thymidylate synthetase (TSase) was examined by direct thermal titration. The binding of each ligand was examined in two different buffers, so that proton interactions could be observed. In agreement with an earlier study (N. V. Beaudette, N. Langerman, R. L. Kisliuk, and Y. Gaumont, 1977, Arch. Biochem. Biophys.179, 272–278), dUMP binding is driven predominantly by enthalpy changes at pH 7.4, with 0.77 ± 0.07 mol of protons binding along with the substrate. When the pH is decreased to 5.8, binding affinity increases, and a substantial increase in the entropic contribution to the binding is observed. In contrast to the binding of protons with substrate at pH 7.4, protons are released at pH 5.8. The proton effects suggest a model in which binding occurs through an electrostatic interaction between dianionic nucleotide and protonated enzyme residues. Binding of FdUMP at pH 7.4 involves the uptake of protons, and is also predominantly driven by changes in enthalpy. A good fit to the thermal data is obtained using the single-site binding constant, K = 9.5 × 104m?1. Our earlier interpretation (Arch. Biochem. Biophys., 1977, 179, 272–278) of the thermal data indicating two sites is in error. Preliminary date are presented which suggest that two-site binding of FdUMP occurs on prolonged incubation during equilibrium dialysis. Binding of the product dTMP shows different behavior. The reaction is entropically driven, suggesting that a significant hydrophobic interaction occurs between the protein and the 5-methyl group of the nucleotide. Only 0.48 ± 0.08 mol of protons are absorbed at pH 7.4. Binding of the nucleotide UMP could not be detected at pH 7.4. 相似文献

Association study is the method of choice to identify genes involved in complex processes that result from the interaction of environmental and genetic factors. However, because of biases that increase the risk of false positive reports, preliminary positive conclusions have to be reproduced on other populations to be validated as firm conclusions. In 1994, certain alleles of two genes, APOE (Apolipoprotein E) and ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme), were reported to be more frequent in French centenarians, suggesting an association with such a complex polyfactorial process as longevity. Enlargement of the French centenarian cohort allows a new assessment of this hypothesis on 563 centenarians. In contrast to APOE, the ACE association was not confirmed. Retrospective analysis of the initial study revealed discrepancies that may in part explain this observation. Risk of reporting false positive associations is discussed and recommendations to set up a rigorous experimental design are proposed. 相似文献

Following chemical mutagenesis and multiple-step indirect selection, four clones of Chinese hamster V79 cells were isolated which exhibited auxotrophy for thymidine, deoxycytidine, or deoxyuridine but not for cytidine or uridine. All were resistant to uridine, 3-deazauridine, 5-fluorouridine, thymidine, and cytosine arabinoside at concentrations that were toxic to wild-type V79 cells. The cytidine 5-triphosphate (CTP) and deoxycytidine 5-triphosphate (dCTP) pools in the mutants were expanded, but the uridine 5-triphosphate (UTP) pool either decreased or remained unchanged relative to the wild-type level. Furthermore, since the parental cells appear to be deficient in dCMP deaminase activity and CTP (or one of its metabolites) has been shown to inhibit uridine 5-diphosphate (UDP) reduction, an elevated CTP level should lead to the observed thymidine auxotrophy. It also explains the joint resistance of mutant clones to thymidine and cytosine arabinoside. The change in the ratio of intracellular dCTP to thymidine 5-triphosphate (dTTP) may be responsible for the elevation in the rates of spontaneous mutations in these mutants.This work was supported by Grant GM 30608 from the U.S. Public Health Service. 相似文献

We previously defined haplotypes of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with possible relevance to multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2 CC chemokine ligand (CCL) clusters in chromosome 17q11. The 17q11 region was also identified as a susceptibility locus by a meta-analysis of linkage studies. To confirm and refine the previous finding in a second, high resolution SNP scan in a new set of families. We genotyped 232 SNPs in 1369 individuals in 361 MS families. Transmission of marker alleles and haplotypes from unaffected parents to affected offspring was tested by using the pedigree disequilibrium test, the TRANSMIT 2.5 program, and the family and haplotype based association tests. Distribution of linkage disequilibrium (LD) was assessed by ldmax. In consensus with observations in the first scan, the present study identified haplotypes within CCL3 and CCL15 in the telomeric CCL cluster. There was also an overlap in the findings in the centromeric CCL cluster. Strong and extensive LD was detected both within the centromeric and telomeric CCL gene clusters. The present study replicates our previous findings and further suggests the existence of MS associated haplotypes within genes of CCL3 and CCL15. Haplotypes of interest are also present within the centromeric gene cluster (including CCL2, CCL7, CCL11, CCL8, and CCL13), but extensive LD prevents further refinement of these haplotypes by using the methods applied. Sequencing of the identified chromosomal segments and their flanking regions will be necessary to define specific variants with direct relevance to MS pathogenesis. 相似文献

2′-Deoxy-5-methylisocytidine is widely used in assays to personalize the care of patients infected with HIV, hepatitis C, and other infectious agents. However, oligonucleotides that incorporate 2′-deoxy-5-methylisocytidine are expensive, because of its intrinsic chemical instability. We report here a C-glycoside analog that is more stable and, in oligonucleotides, pairs with 2′-deoxyisoguanosine, contributing to duplex stability about as much as a standard 2′-deoxycytidine and 2′-deoxyguanosine pair. 相似文献

Holocarboxylase synthetase (HLCS) catalyzes the covalent attachment of biotin to cytoplasmic and mitochondrial carboxylases, nuclear histones, and over a hundred human proteins.Nonhydrolyzable ketophosphonate (β-ketoP) and hydroxyphosphonate (β-hydroxyP) analogs of biotin-5′-AMP inhibit holocarboxylase synthetase (HLCS) with IC50 values of 39.7 μM and 203.7 μM. By comparison, an IC50 value of 7 μM was observed with the previously reported biotinol-5′-AMP. The Ki values, 3.4 μM and 17.3 μM, respectively, are consistent with the IC50 results, and close to the Ki obtained for biotinol-5′-AMP (7 μM). The β-ketoP and β-hydroxyP molecules are competitive inhibitors of HLCS while biotinol-5′-AMP inhibited HLCS by a mixed mechanism. 相似文献

Human ribonuclease L (RNase L), an interferon-induced endoribonuclease, becomes enzymatically active after binding to 2-5A. The 5′-phosphoryl group of 2-5A is reportedly necessary for the conformational change leading to RNase L activation. However, we found that 5′-O-dephosphorylated 2-5A tetramer analogs with 8-methyladenosine at the 2′-terminus were more effective as an activator of RNase L than the parent 2-5A tetramer. Introduction of 8-methyladenosine is thought to induce a dramatic shift of 2-5A in the binding site of RNase L. 相似文献
