The objective of this study is to investigate the association between SNP polymorphisms of endothelin-1 (EDN1) and endothelin receptor (EDNRA and EDNRB) gene and ischemic stroke (IS) in the Chinese Han population in northern. A case–control study was introduced. We genotyped eight SNPs (rs1800541, rs2070699, and rs5370 in EDN1 gene; rs1801708, rs5333, and rs5335 in EDNRA gene; and rs3818416 and rs5351 in EDNRB gene) and calculated their polymorphic distribution in control group, IS group, and the IS subgroups. In male population, EDN1 gene rs2070699 G allele increased the incidence risk to 1.78 times (P = 0.009; OR 1.78; 95 % CI 1.15–2.75) and the risk of morbidity of rs5370 T allele carrying increased to 1.49 times (P = 0.048; OR 1.49; 95 % CI 1.00–2.21). EDNRA gene mutation rs5335 homozygous CC morbidity risk was significantly lower (P = 0.016; OR 0.52; 95 % CI 0.31–0.88). In the female population, the mutant homozygous AA cancer risk was significantly higher than G allele carriers (P = 0.019; OR 2.65; 95 % CI 1.18–6.00) on EDNRA gene rs1801708. In EDN1 gene, T allele of rs5370 and G allele of rs2070699 may be IS incidence risk factors in Northern Han male population. A allele of rs1801708 in EDNRA gene can increase the risk of IS in Northern Han women population.  相似文献

The tumor necrosis factor alpha-inducible protein 3 (TNFAIP3) gene polymorphisms have recently been reported to be associated with the susceptibility to several immune-related diseases. This study was performed to evaluate the potential association of TNFAIP3 polymorphisms with Behcet’s disease (BD) in a Chinese Han population. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs10499194, rs610604, rs7753873, rs5029928, and rs9494885 of TNFAIP3 were genotyped in 722 BD patients and 1,415 healthy controls using a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Allele and genotype frequencies were compared between patients and controls using the χ 2 test. The results showed a significantly increased prevalence of the rs9494885 TC genotype and C allele in BD patients compared with controls (Bonferroni corrected p (p c) = 1.83 × 10?10, odds ratio (OR) [95 % CI] 2.03 [1.65–2.49]; p c = 8.35 × 10?10, OR [95 % CI] 1.81 [1.51–2.18], respectively).The frequency of the TT genotype and T allele of rs9494885 was markedly lower in BD patients than that in controls (p c = 1.23 × 10?10, OR [95 % CI] 0.50 [0.40–0.61]; p c = 8.35 × 10?10, OR [95 % CI] 0.55 [0.46–0.66], respectively). For rs10499194, a higher frequency of the CC genotype (p c = 0.015, OR [95 % CI] 1.96 [1.30–2.97]) and C allele (p c = 0.005, OR [95 % CI] 1.92 [1.28–2.90]), and a lower frequency of the TC genotype (p c = 0.015, OR [95 % CI] 0.51 [0.34–0.77]) and T allele (p c = 0.005, OR [95 % CI] 0.52 [0.35–2.97]) were found in BD patients. Concerning rs7753873, a higher frequency of the AC genotype (p c = 0.015, OR [95 % CI] 1.49 [1.17–1.91]) and C allele (p c = 0.025, OR [95 % CI] 1.39 [1.11–1.76]), and a lower frequency of the AA genotype (p c = 0.03, OR [95 % CI] 0.68 [0.53–0.87]) and A allele (p c = 0.025, OR [95 % CI] 0.72 [0.57–0.91]) were observed in BD patients. This study identified one strong risk SNP rs9494885 and two weak risk SNPs rs10499194 and rs7753873 of TNFAIP3 in Chinese Han BD patients.  相似文献

A GWAS study has reported that two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were associated with predisposition to tuberculosis (TB) in African populations. These two loci represented the long-waited GWAS hits for TB susceptibility. To determine whether these two SNPs are associated with TB in Chinese population, we attempted an replication in a cohort of over one thousand Chinese TB patients and 1,280 healthy controls using melting temperature shift allele-specific genotyping analysis. We found that only SNP rs4331426 was significantly associated with TB in Chinese population (p = 0.011). However, the effect was opposite. The G allele of the SNP in Chinese population is a protective allele (OR = 0.62, 95 % CI 0.44–0.87), while it was the risk allele for African population (OR = 1.19, 95 % CI 1.12–1.26). No significance was found for SNP rs2335704. The results provided an independent support for a role in susceptibility to TB for SNP rs4331426. However, it also indicated that direct predisposition element to TB and the association effects may vary across ethnic groups.  相似文献

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in the clinical setting and an independent risk factor for stroke. Approximately 10 million Chinese people are affected by AF, but the genetic basis is largely unknown. A recent genome-wide association study in Iceland identified association between SNP rs2200733 on 4q25 and AF; however, many independent replication studies are essential to unequivocally validate this association. To assess the association between rs2200733 and AF as well as that between rs2200733 and ischemic stroke in a mainland Chinese Han population, we carried out case–control association studies with 383 AF patients versus 851 non-AF controls and 811 ischemic stroke patients versus 688 non-stroke controls. Highly significant association was detected between rs2200733 and AF in a Chinese Han population (allelic P = 3.7 × 10?11 with OR = 1.81; genotypic P = 4.1 × 10?12 with a dominant model). When the AF cases were divided into lone AF (32.6%) and other types of AF (67.4%), significantly stronger association was found with lone AF (OR = 2.40, P = 1.3 × 10?9 compared to OR = 1.59, P = 6.2 × 10?7 for other types of AF; P = 0.02 for two ORs). No significant association was found between rs2200733 and ischemic stroke. Our results suggest that SNP rs2200733 confers a highly significant risk of AF, but not ischemic stroke, in a more representative Chinese Han population in the mainland China.  相似文献

To investigate the association of tag-SNPs and haplotype structures of the CIDEA gene with obesity in a Han Chinese population. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs1154588/V115F, rs4796955/SNP1, rs8092502/SNP2, rs12962340/SNP3 and rs7230480/SNP4) in the CIDEA gene were genotyped in a case–control study. Genotyping was performed using the sequenom matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry iPLEX platform. There were significant differences between the obese and control groups in genotype distributions of V115F (P < 0.001), SNP1 (P = 0.006) and SNP2 (P = 0.005). Carriers of V115F-TT, SNP1-GG and SNP2-CC genotypes had a 2.84-fold (95 % CI 1.73–4.66), 2.19-fold (95 % CI 1.09–4.38) and 4.37-fold (95 % CI 1.21–15.08) increased risk for obesity, respectively. Haplotype analysis showed that GTTC (SNP1/SNP2/V115F/SNP4) had 1.41-fold (95 % CI 1.02–1.95) increased risk for obesity; whereas, haplotype TTGC had 0.48-fold (95 % CI 0.24–0.96) decreased risk for obesity. Using the multifactor dimensionality reduction method, the best model including SNP1, SNP2, V115F and SNP4 polymorphisms was identified with a maximum testing accuracy to 59.32 % and a perfect cross-validation consistency of 10/10 (P = 0.011). Logistic analysis indicated that there was a significant interaction between SNP1 and V115F associated with obesity. Subjects having both genotypes of SNP1/GG and V115F/TT were more susceptible to obesity in the Han Chinese population (OR 2.66, 95 %: 1.22–5.80). Genotypes of V115F/TT, SNP1/GG and SNP2/CC and haplotype GTTC of CIDEA gene were identified as risk factors for obesity in the Han Chinese population. The interaction between SNP1 and V115F could play a joint role in the development of obesity.  相似文献

Genetic factors play an important role in the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) development and memory impairment is a cardinal clinical feature of AD. Kidney and brain expressed protein (KIBRA), owing to its connection with human episodic memory, became an interesting candidate gene for AD. Recently, KIBRA (rs17070145) was reported to be associated with AD in the genetic and functional levels in Caucasian and African-American, and the association might be different across age groups. To investigate the possibility of age-dependent association of KIBRA with AD in Asian, we conducted an independent replication study in a cohort of 1,586 subjects from Han Chinese (including 790 LOAD patients and 796 healthy controls). The results revealed no significant differences in the distributions of genotype or allele between LOAD and control groups in the total sample. However, when these data were stratified by their age, we observed a significant difference in the genotypes and alleles frequencies (genotype: p = 0.004, allele: p = 0.035) in the young subgroup. Moreover, the association was further demonstrated in logistic regression analysis (rs17070145: p = 0.045, OR = 0.428). Our data suggested that KIBRA might associate with younger AD patients (≤74 years) in a Northern Han Chinese population.  相似文献

A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1122608 on chromosome 19p13.2 and in the BRG1/SMARCA4 gene was previously associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD and ischemic stroke are both associated with atherosclerosis. Thus, we tested the hypothesis that rs1122608 is associated with ischemic stroke. Further studies were used to identify the most likely mechanism by which rs1122608 regulates atherosclerosis. For case–control association studies, two independent Chinese Han GeneID cohorts were used, including a Central cohort with 1,075 cases and 2,685 controls and the Northern cohort with 1,208 cases and 824 controls. eQTL and real-time RT-PCR analyses were used to identify the potential candidate gene(s) affected by rs1122608. The minor allele T of SNP rs1122608 showed significant association with a decreased risk of ischemic stroke in the Central GeneID cohort (adjusted P adj = 2.1 × 10?4, OR 0.61). The association was replicated in an independent Northern GeneID cohort (P adj = 6.00 × 10?3, OR 0.69). The association became more significant in the combined population (P adj = 7.86 × 10?5, OR 0.73). Allele T of SNP rs1122608 also showed significant association with a decreased total cholesterol level (P adj = 0.013). Allele T of rs1122608 was associated with an increased expression level of SFRS3 encoding an mRNA splicing regulator, but not with the expression of BRG1/SMARCA4 or LDLR (located 36 kb from rs1122608). Increased expression of SFSR3 may decrease IL-1β expression and secretion, resulting in reduced risk of atherosclerosis and stroke. This is the first study that demonstrates that rs1122608 confers protection against ischemic stroke and implicates splicing factor SFSR3 in the disease process.  相似文献

KIF21B polymorphisms were found associated with susceptibility to multiple sclerosis and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in populations of white European ancestry. We aimed to replicate the association of polymorphisms around KIF21B and AS in a Chinese Han population. This case–control study included 665 patients with AS and 1,042 healthy controls genotyped for seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of KIF21B—rs12118246, rs4915464, rs502658, rs10494829, rs12089839, rs6687260, and rs957957—by TaqMan genotyping assay; statistical analyses involved the use of PLINK. We also estimated the linkage disequilibrium and haplotypes of these SNPs. Two SNPs—rs502658 (allelic p?=?0.0002, odds ratio [OR] 0.60, 95 % confidence interval [95 % CI] 0.47–0.76) and rs10494829 (allelic p?=?0.003, OR 1.30, 95 % CI 1.12–1.52)—were significantly associated with AS in the Chinese Han population. In addition, a linear regression test showed that they have independent contribution to disease susceptibility. For both SNPs, haplotype AT was strongly associated with AS and increased the risk of the disease (p?=?0.045, OR 1.183, 95 % CI 1.004–1.395), and the genotype GC reduced the risk (p?=?0.011, OR 0.715, 95 % CI 0.55–0.928). This work identified a significant association of two SNPs in KIF21B and AS in the Chinese Han population. KIF21B may play an important role in the pathogenesis of AS in the Chinese population and might be a new therapeutic target for AS.  相似文献

To determine whether genetic heterogeneity exists in patients with Graves'' disease (GD), the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated 4 (CTLA-4) gene, which is implicated a susceptibility gene for GD by considerable genetic and immunological evidence, was used for association analysis in a Chinese Han cohort recruited from various geographic regions. Our association study for the SNPs in the CTLA4 gene in 2640 GD patients and 2204 control subjects confirmed that CTLA4 is the susceptibility gene for GD in the Chinese Han population. Moreover, the logistic regression analysis in the combined Chinese Han cohort revealed that SNP rs231779 (allele frequencies p = 2.81×10−9, OR = 1.35, and genotype distributions p = 2.75×10−9, OR = 1.42) is likely the susceptibility variant for GD. Interestingly, the logistic regression analysis revealed that SNP rs35219727 may be the susceptibility variant to GD in the Shandong population; however, SNP, rs231779 in the CTLA4 gene probably independently confers GD susceptibility in the Xuzhou and southern China populations. These data suggest that the susceptibility variants of the CTLA4 gene varied between the different geographic populations with GD.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the BH3 interacting domain death agonist (BID) gene as a risk factor in Korean patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). To investigate the genetic association, two coding SNPs (rs8190315, Ser10Gly; rs2072392, Asp60Asp) of BID were genotyped in 157 OPLL patients and 209 control subjects. SNPStats, SNPAnalyzer Pro, Helixtree, and Haploview 4.2 programs were used for association analysis. Multiple logistic regression models (codominant, dominant, and recessive) were calculated for the odds ratios (ORs), 95 % confidence intervals (CIs), and corresponding P values. For multiple testing, Bonferroni correction was performed. After Bonferroni correction, genotype analysis of both rs8190315 and rs2072392 showed association between the OPLL group and the control group in the codominant model (P = 0.042, OR 1.86, 95 % CI 1.10–3.15). A complete linkage disequilibrium block was estimated between the two SNPs. Both of the G allele of rs8190315 and C allele of rs2072392 were strongly associated with an increased risk in the development of OPLL (P = 0.0052, OR 2.66, 95 % CI 1.51–4.68). These results suggest that BID is associated with OPLL, and both the G allele of a missense SNP (rs8190315, Ser10Gly) and C allele of a synonymous SNP (rs2072392, Asp60Asp) are risk factors for the development of OPLL in Korean population.  相似文献

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychiatric disorder associated with many different risk factors, both genetic and environmental. A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) of Han Chinese identified three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs rs11038167, rs11038172, and rs835784) in the tetraspanins gene TSPAN18 as possible susceptibility loci for schizophrenia. Hoping to validate these findings, we conducted a case-control study of Han Chinese with 1093 schizophrenia cases and 1022 healthy controls. Using the LDR-PCR method to genotype polymorphisms in TSPAN18, we found no significant differences (P>0.05) between patients and controls in either the allele or genotype frequency of the SNPs rs11038167 and rs11038172. We did find, however, that the frequency of the ‘A’ allele of SNP rs835784 is significantly higher in patients than in controls. We further observed a significant association (OR  = 1.197, 95%CI  = 1.047–1.369) between risk for SCZ and this ‘A’ allele. These results confirm the significant association, in Han Chinese populations, of increased SCZ risk and the variant of the TSPAN18 gene containing the ‘A’ allele of SNP rs835784.  相似文献

Leprosy is caused by infection with Mycobacterium leprae and is classified clinically into paucibacillary (PB) or multibacillary (MB) subtypes based on the number of skin lesions and the bacillary index detected in skin smears. We previously identified a major PB susceptibility locus on chromosome region 10p13 in Vietnamese families by linkage analysis. In the current study, we conducted high-density association mapping of the 9.5 Mb linkage peak on chromosome region 10p13 covering 39 genes. Using leprosy per se and leprosy subtypes as phenotypes, we employed 294 nuclear families (303 leprosy cases, 63 % MB, 37 % PB) as a discovery sample and 192 nuclear families (192 cases, 55 % MB, 45 % PB) as a replication sample. Replicated significant association signals were revealed in the genes for cubilin (CUBN) and nebulette (NEBL). In the combined sample, the C allele (frequency 0.26) at CUBN SNP rs10904831 showed association [p = 1 × 10?5; OR 0.52 (0.38–0.7)] with MB leprosy only. Likewise, allele T (frequency 0.42) at NEBL SNP rs11012461 showed association [p = 4.2 × 10?5; OR 2.51 (1.6–4)] with MB leprosy only. These associations remained valid for the CUBN signal when taking into account the effective number of tests performed (type I error significance threshold = 2.4 × 10?5). We used the results of our analyses to propose a new model for the genetic control of polarization of clinical leprosy.  相似文献

High-frequency action potentials are mediated by voltage-gated sodium channels, composed of one large α subunit and two small β subunits, encoded mainly by SCN1A, SCN2A, SCN3A, SCN1B, and SCN2B genes in the brain. These play a key role in epilepsy, with the most commonly mutated gene in epilepsy being SCN1A. We examined whether polymorphisms in the above genes affect epilepsy risk in 1,529 epilepsy patients and 1,935 controls from four ethnicities or locations: Malay, Indian, and Chinese, all from Malaysia, and Chinese from Hong Kong. Of patients, 19 % were idiopathic, 42 % symptomatic, and 40 % cryptogenic. We genotyped 43 polymorphisms: 27 in Hong Kong, 28 in Malaysia, and 12 in both locations. The strongest association with epilepsy was rs3812718, or SCN1A IVS5N+5G>A: odds ratio (OR) = 0.85 for allele G (p = 0.0009) and 0.73 for genotype GG versus AA (p = 0.003). The OR was between 0.76 and 0.87 for all ethnicities. Meta-analysis confirmed the association (OR = 0.81 and p = 0.002 for G, and OR = 0.67 and p = 0.007 for GG versus AA), which appeared particularly strong for Indians and for febrile seizures. Allele G affects splicing and speeds recovery from inactivation. Since SCN1A is preferentially expressed in inhibitory neurons, G may decrease epilepsy risk. SCN1A rs10188577 displayed OR = 1.20 for allele C (p = 0.003); SCN2A rs12467383 had OR = 1.16 for allele A (p = 0.01), and displayed linkage disequilibrium with rs2082366 (r 2 = 0.67), whose genotypes tended toward association with SCN2A brain expression (p = 0.10). SCN1A rs2298771 was associated in Indians (OR = 0.56, p = 0.005) and SCN2B rs602594 with idiopathic epilepsy (OR = 0.62, p = 0.002). Therefore, sodium channel polymorphisms are associated with epilepsy.  相似文献

MicroRNAs are endogenous non-coding RNAs about 22 nucleotides in length that can repress the expression of proteins by binding to the 3′-untranslated regions of target messenger RNAs. We hypothesized that polymorphisms in miR-146a and miR-196a2 are associated with risk of ischemic stroke in the northern Chinese Han population. In a case–control study of 368 ischemic stroke patients and 381 control subjects that were frequency matched by age and gender, we genotyped two single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs11614913 in miR-196a2 and rs2910164 in miR-146a) using polymerase chain reaction-ligation detection reaction. The frequencies of the rs2910164 CC genotype and C allele within miR-146a were not significantly different in patients with ischemic stroke compared with those in the healthy control group. In subgroup meta-analysis, rs2910164 in miR-146a and large-artery atherosclerosis, rather than small-vessel disease, showed the significant association under the dominant model (CC vs CG+GG, OR 1.694; 95 % CI 1.199–2.395 p = 0.003). After adjusting for confounding risk factors of ischemic stroke by logistic regression analysis, this significant correlation remained. In addition, the distributions of the miR-196a2 genotypes and alleles were not statistically different between ischemic stroke and healthy groups. We also did not find any significant association from stroke subtypes. The CC genotype and C allele of rs2910164 within miR-146a are associated with an increased incidence of large-artery athersclerotic stroke in the northern Chinese Han population. This study indicates that miR-146a (rs2910164) might contribute to ischemic stroke susceptibility in the northern Chinese Han population.  相似文献

Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the CTLA-4 gene and elevated serum levels of soluble CTLA-4 (sCTLA-4) have been associated with autoimmunity including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this case–control study, we evaluated the relationship between the ?319C/T (rs5742909) and CT60 G/A (rs3087243) SNPs and sCTLA-4 levels in 200 RA patients and 200 control subjects (CS) from Western Mexico. Both SNPs were genotyped with the polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism technique and the sCTLA-4 levels were quantified using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. In addition, we performed a haplotype analysis, including our previous data of the +49A/G (rs231775) SNP. The G/A genotype of the rs3087243 SNP was associated with a decreased risk of RA [odd ratio (OR) 0.61, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.38–0.96, p = 0.024]. This protection was also observed in the negative anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide group of RA carriers of the A allele (OR 0.48, 95 % CI 0.22–1.05, p = 0.042). On the contrary, we identified the ?319C/+49G/CT60G haplotype of CTLA-4 gene as a risk factor for RA (OR 1.69, 95 % CI 1.13–2.52, p = 0.01). The sCTLA-4 levels were not associated with RA (p = 0.377), but were correlated with the functional disability of these patients (r = 0.282, p = 0.012). However, in CS the C/T genotype of the rs5742909 SNP, as well as the G/G and G/A genotypes of the rs3087243 SNP were associated with higher sCTLA-4 levels (p < 0.001). In conclusion, our results suggest that the ?319C/+49G/CT60G haplotype of CTLA-4 gene is a genetic marker of susceptibility to RA in Western Mexico, whereas the rs3087243 SNP confers protection against this disease. Moreover, both SNPs showed an effect on the sCTLA-4 production in our control population. However, further studies are required to evaluate the role of sCTLA-4 in RA, as well as the molecular and functional basis of the association between both CTLA-4 gene SNPs and soluble levels of CTLA-4 in CS.  相似文献

The hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha (HNF4A) and human forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) genes have been discovered to be associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in different populations. This study aimed to evaluate the association between HNF4A and FOXO1 genetic polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes in the Chinese Han population. Five hundred and seventy-seven patients with type 2 diabetes and 462 normal controls were enrolled in this study. Six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in HNF4A and seven in FOXO1 were selected and genotyped with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) or TaqMan® technology. Single-locus analyses indicated that the C allele of rs11574736 from HNF4A had a lower frequency in the case group compared with the control group (P = 0.005, OR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.59–0.92). The genotype distributions of rs11574736 also differed between the two groups (P = 0.02). However, none of the FOXO1 SNPs showed any association with type 2 diabetes in the Chinese Han population. Further analysis suggested the two genes interact with each other (rs3908773/rs717247/rs6031587/rs11574736: P < 0.0001, testing accuracy = 0.55, CV consistency = 6/10). In conclusion, this study shows an association between the HNF4A gene and type 2 diabetes in the Chinese Han population. Moreover, the authors confirmed the results of previous studies for the interaction between HNF4A and FOXO1 in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to explore whether cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) +49 A/G, CT60 A/G, and protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 (PTPN22) 1858 C/T polymorphisms confer susceptibility to vitiligo. A meta-analysis was conducted of the associations between the CTLA-4 +49 A/G, CT60 and PTPN22 1858 C/T polymorphisms and vitiligo using; (1) allele contrast, (2) the recessive model, (3) the dominant model, and (4) the additive model. A total of 14 separate comparisons were considered in our meta-analysis consisting of 3,404 patients with vitiligo and 5,069 controls (nine studies with 1,252 cases and 2,152 controls for the CTLA-4 polymorphisms and five studies with 1,800 cases and 3,269 controls for the PTPN22 polymorphism). Meta-analysis showed no association between vitiligo and the CTLA-4 +49 A/G polymorphism in all study subjects (OR of the G allele = 1.186, 95 % CI = 0.893–1.575, p = 0.240) and in European (OR = 1.016, 95 % CI = 0.873–1.182, p = 0.838). However, meta-analysis of the CTLA-4 CT60 A/G polymorphism showed an association between vitiligo and the CTLA-4 CT60 G allele in all study subjects (OR = 1.267, 95 % CI = 1.110–1.447, p = 4.5 × 10?5) and in the European group (OR = 1.345, 95 % CI = 1.163–1.556, p = 6.3 × 10?6). Analysis using the recessive model and homozygote contrast showed the same pattern for the CTLA-4 CT60 G allele. Meta-analysis of the PTPN22 1858 C/T polymorphism showed an association between the PTPN22 T allele and vitiligo in all subjects (OR = 1.507, 95 % CI = 1.320–1.720, p < 1.0 × 10?8) and in European group (OR = 1.530, 95 % CI = 1.339–1.748, p < 1.0 × 10?8), but not in Asians (OR = 0.482, 95 % CI = 0.152–1.530, p = 0.216). Analysis using the recessive, dominant model, and homozygote contrast showed the same pattern for the PTPN22 T allele. This meta-analysis demonstrates that the CTLA-4 CT60 A/G polymorphism confers susceptibility to vitiligo in Europeans, but no association was found between the CTLA-4 +49 A/G polymorphism and vitiligo susceptibility. The PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism is associated with vitiligo susceptibility in European population.  相似文献

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is one of neurodevelopmental disorders with highly heritability. Recently, abnormality at the synapse is found to be important etiology of ASD. SHANK3 gene is suggested as a strong candidate gene for the pathogenesis of ASD, because it is essential for normally synaptic structure and function. We performed a case–control study to identify association between rs9616915 of the SHANK3 gene and ASD in a Chinese population. Genomic DNA was extracted from oral swabs samples of 212 patients and 636 controls and the SNP genotypes were determined by a polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymerase assay. Significant difference in genotype distribution of rs9616915 was observed between cases and controls by Pearson’s χ 2 test (χ 2 = 6.92, P = 0.031). Genetic analysis of heterozygous model, dominant model and additive model showed an association of the C allele of the rs9616915 with ASD (e.g., additive model, OR 0.582, 95 % CI 0.359–0.942, P = 0.028). In conclusion, our results suggested that this commonly genetic variant in SHANK3 gene strikingly decreased the risk of ASD in China.  相似文献

Previous studies have shown associations of fetuin-A (alpha2-Heremans-Schmid glycoprotein, AHSG) with various disorders, including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and atherosclerosis. In this study, genotype and allele frequencies of the rs4918 SNP in the AHSG gene were examined in 380 patients with ischemic stroke and 350 healthy controls from a Northern Han Chinese population via the PCR-RFLP technique. Frequencies of the GG genotype and the G allele in AHSG (rs4918) were significantly higher in patients with ischemic stroke or atherosclerotic cerebral infarction than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated the significance of rs4918 in these patients, after adjustment for confounding factors (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that rs4918 SNPs of the AHSG gene are associated with a risk for ischemic stroke in a Northern Han Chinese population.  相似文献
