C-reactive protein (CRP) is a heritable biomarker of systemic inflammation and a predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Large-scale genetic association studies for CRP have largely focused on individuals of European descent. We sought to uncover novel genetic variants for CRP in a multiethnic sample using the ITMAT Broad-CARe (IBC) array, a custom 50,000 SNP gene-centric array having dense coverage of over 2,000 candidate CVD genes. We performed analyses on 7,570 African Americans (AA) from the Candidate gene Association Resource (CARe) study and race-combined meta-analyses that included 29,939 additional individuals of European descent from CARe, the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) and KORA studies. We observed array-wide significance (p < 2.2 × 10?6) for four loci in AA, three of which have been reported previously in individuals of European descent (IL6R, p = 2.0 × 10?6; CRP, p = 4.2 × 10?71; APOE, p = 1.6 × 10?6). The fourth significant locus, CD36 (p = 1.6 × 10?6), was observed at a functional variant (rs3211938) that is extremely rare in individuals of European descent. We replicated the CD36 finding (p = 1.8 × 10?5) in an independent sample of 8,041 AA women from WHI; a meta-analysis combining the CARe and WHI AA results at rs3211938 reached genome-wide significance (p = 1.5 × 10?10). In the race-combined meta-analyses, 13 loci reached significance, including ten (CRP, TOMM40/APOE/APOC1, HNF1A, LEPR, GCKR, IL6R, IL1RN, NLRP3, HNF4A and BAZ1B/BCL7B) previously associated with CRP, and one (ARNTL) previously reported to be nominally associated with CRP. Two novel loci were also detected (RPS6KB1, p = 2.0 × 10?6; CD36, p = 1.4 × 10?6). These results highlight both shared and unique genetic risk factors for CRP in AA compared to populations of European descent. 相似文献

Human height is a complex genetic trait with high heritability but discovery efforts in Asian populations are limited. We carried out a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for height in 6,534 subjects with in silico replication of 1,881 subjects in Han Chinese. We identified three novel loci reaching the genome-wide significance threshold (P < 5 × 10?8), which mapped in or near ZNF638 (rs12612930, P = 2.02 × 10?10), MAML2 (rs11021504, P = 7.81 × 10?9), and C18orf12 (rs11082671, P = 1.87 × 10?8). We also confirmed two loci previously reported in European populations including CS (rs3816804, P = 2.63 × 10?9) and CYP19A1 (rs3751599, P = 4.80 × 10?10). In addition, we provided evidence supporting 35 SNPs identified by previous GWAS (P < 0.05). Our study provides new insights into the genetic determination of biological regulation of human height. 相似文献

Maximum number of alcoholic drinks consumed in a 24-h period (maxdrinks) is a heritable (>50 %) trait and is strongly correlated with vulnerability to excessive alcohol consumption and subsequent alcohol dependence (AD). Several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have studied alcohol dependence, but few have concentrated on excessive alcohol consumption. We performed two GWAS using maxdrinks as an excessive alcohol consumption phenotype: one in 118 extended families (N = 2,322) selected from the Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism (COGA), and the other in a case–control sample (N = 2,593) derived from the Study of Addiction: Genes and Environment (SAGE). The strongest association in the COGA families was detected with rs9523562 (p = 2.1 × 10?6) located in an intergenic region on chromosome 13q31.1; the strongest association in the SAGE dataset was with rs67666182 (p = 7.1 × 10?7), located in an intergenic region on chromosome 8. We also performed a meta-analysis with these two GWAS and demonstrated evidence of association in both datasets for the LMO1 (p = 7.2 × 10?7) and PLCL1 genes (p = 4.1 × 10?6) with maxdrinks. A variant in AUTS2 and variants in INADL, C15orf32 and HIP1 that were associated with measures of alcohol consumption in a meta-analysis of GWAS studies and a GWAS of alcohol consumption factor score also showed nominal association in the current meta-analysis. The present study has identified several loci that warrant further examination in independent samples. Among the top SNPs in each of the dataset (p ≤ 10?4) far more showed the same direction of effect in the other dataset than would be expected by chance (p = 2 × 10?3, 3 × 10?6), suggesting that there are true signals among these top SNPs, even though no SNP reached genome-wide levels of significance. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether the Fcγ receptors (FCGRs) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to periodontitis in ethnically different populations. We did a literature search using PubMed and Embase, and conducted a meta-analysis on the associations between the FCGR2A H131R (rs1801274), FCGR3A F158V (rs396991), and FCGR3B NA1/NA2 polymorphisms and periodontitis using allele contrast, the recessive model, the dominant model, and the homozygote contrast. A total of 17 separate comparisons with 1,421 patients with periodontitis and 1,454 controls, involving six Caucasian, six East Asian, two African and one South Asian population were considered in the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of the FCGR2A H131R polymorphism showed no association between periodontitis and the FCGR2A R allele (OR = 0.987, 95 % CI = 0.881–1.107, p = 0.827). Stratification by ethnicity revealed an association between the RR+RH genotype with periodontitis in Caucasian population (OR = 0.624, 95 % CI = 0.479–0.813, p = 4.7 × 10?5), but not in East Asian, and African populations. Meta-analysis of the FCGR3A F158V polymorphism revealed an association between the FCGR3A V allele and periodontitis is in Caucasians (OR = 1.457, 95 % CI = 1.014–2.092, p = 0.042), but not in East Asians and Africans. In addition, analysis using the dominant model and homozygote contrast showed the same pattern for the FCGR3A V allele. Meta-analysis of the FCGR3B NA1/NA2 polymorphism using the recessive model revealed a significant association between the NA2/NA2 genotype and periodontitis in aggressive periodontitis (OR = 2.853, 95 % CI = 1.673–4.863, 1.1 × 10?5). This meta-analysis demonstrates that the FCGR2A, and FCGR3A polymorphisms may confer susceptibility to periodontitis in Caucasians, and that the FCGR3B polymorphism may be associated with susceptibility to aggressive periodontitis. 相似文献

Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified many candidate genes that are associated with blood lipid and lipoprotein concentrations. In this study, we want to know whether the results from European for lipid-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are generalizable to Chinese children. We genotyped seven SNPs in Chinese school-age children (n = 3,503) and assessed the associations of these SNPs with lipids profiles and dyslipidemia. After false discovery rate correction, of the seven SNPs, six (rs2144300, p ~ 9.30 × 10?3; rs1260333, p ~ 6.20 × 10?11; rs1260326, p ~ 8.73 × 10?11; rs10105606, p ~ 0.010; rs1748195, p ~ 0.016 and rs964184, p ~ 2.33 × 10?13) showed strong association with triglycerides. Three SNPs (rs1260333, p ~ 3.30 × 10?3; rs1260326, p ~ 4.39 × 10?3 and rs2954029, p ~ 6.36 × 10?4) showed strong association with total cholesterol. Two SNPs (rs10105606, p ~ 6.66 × 10?4 and rs1748195, p ~ 2.55 × 10?3) showed strong association with high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Four SNPs (rs1260333, p ~ 0.017; rs1260326, p ~ 0.013; rs2954029, p ~ 1.09 × 10?3 and rs964184, p ~ 5.51 × 10?3) showed strong association with low density lipoprotein cholesterol. There were significant associations between rs1260333 (OR is 0.82, 95 % CI 0.74–0.92, p ~ 3.96 × 10?4), rs1260326 (OR is 0.82, 95 % CI 0.74–0.92, p ~ 5.31 × 10?4), and rs964184 (OR is 1.36, 95 % CI 1.20–1.55, p ~ 1.89 × 10?6) and dyslipidemia. These SNPs generated strong combined effects on lipid profiles and dyslipidemia. Our study demonstrates that SNPs associated with lipids from European GWA studies also play roles in Chinese children, which broadened the understanding of lipids metabolism. 相似文献

Paget’s disease of bone (PDB) is one of the most frequent metabolic bone disorders (1–5%), next to osteoporosis, affecting individuals above age 55. Sequestosome1 mutations explain a part of the PDB patients, but still the disease pathogenesis in the remaining PDB patients is largely unknown. Therefore, association studies investigating the relationship between genetic polymorphisms and sporadic PDB have been performed to find the genetic risk variants. Previously such studies indicated a role of the OPG and RANK gene. The latter was recently confirmed in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) which also indicated the involvement of chromosomal regions harbouring the CSF1 and OPTN gene. In this study, we sought to replicate these findings in a Belgian and a Dutch population. Similar significant results were obtained for the single nucleotide polymorphisms and the haplotypes. The most significant results are found in the CSF1 gene region, followed by the OPTN and TNFRSF11A gene region (p values ranging from 1.3 × 10?4 to 3.8 × 10?8, OR = 1.523–1.858). We next obtained significant association with a polymorphism from the chromosomal region around the TM7SF4 gene (p = 2.7 × 10?3, OR = 1.427), encoding DC-STAMP which did not reach genome-wide significance in the GWAS, but based on its function in osteoclasts it can be considered a strong candidate gene. After meta-analysis with the GWAS data, p values ranged between 2.6 × 10?4 and 8.8 × 10?32. The calculated cumulative population attributable risk of these four loci turned out to be about 67% in our two populations, indicating that most of the genetic risk for PDB is coming from genetic variants close to these four genes. 相似文献

Methamphetamine (MA) is an illegal stimulant drug of abuse with serious negative health consequences. The neurochemical effects of MA have been partially characterized, with a traditional focus on classical neurotransmitter systems. However, these directions have not yet led to novel drug treatments for MA abuse or toxicity. As an alternative approach, we describe here the first application of metabolomics to investigate the neurochemical consequences of MA exposure in the rodent brain. We examined single exposures at 3 mg/kg and repeated exposures at 3 mg/kg over 5 days in eight common inbred mouse strains. Brain tissue samples were assayed using high-throughput gas and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry, yielding quantitative data on >300 unique metabolites. Association testing and false discovery rate control yielded several metabolome-wide significant associations with acute MA exposure, including compounds such as lactate (p = 4.4 × 10?5, q = 0.013), tryptophan (p = 7.0 × 10?4, q = 0.035) and 2-hydroxyglutarate (p = 1.1 × 10?4, q = 0.022). Secondary analyses of MA-induced increase in locomotor activity showed associations with energy metabolites such as succinate (p = 3.8 × 10?7). Associations specific to repeated (5 day) MA exposure included phosphocholine (p = 4.0 × 10?4, q = 0.087) and ergothioneine (p = 3.0 × 10?4, q = 0.087). Our data appear to confirm and extend existing models of MA action in the brain, whereby an initial increase in energy metabolism, coupled with an increase in behavioral locomotion, gives way to disruption of mitochondria and phospholipid pathways and increased endogenous antioxidant response. Our study demonstrates the power of comprehensive MS-based metabolomics to identify drug-induced changes to brain metabolism and to develop neurochemical models of drug effects. 相似文献

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease with strong genetic components. To identity novel risk variants for ALS, utilizing the latest genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and eQTL study data, we conducted a genome-wide expression association analysis by summary data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) method. Summary data were derived from a large-scale GWAS of ALS, involving 12577 cases and 23475 controls. The eQTL annotation dataset included 923,021 cis-eQTL for 14,329 genes and 4732 trans-eQTL for 2612 genes. Genome-wide single gene expression association analysis was conducted by SMR software. To identify ALS-associated biological pathways, the SMR analysis results were further subjected to gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). SMR single gene analysis identified one significant and four suggestive genes associated with ALS, including C9ORF72 (P value = 7.08 × 10?6), NT5C3L (P value = 1.33 × 10?5), GGNBP2 (P value = 1.81 × 10?5), ZNHIT3(P value = 2.94 × 10?5), and KIAA1600(P value = 9.97 × 10?5). GSEA identified 7 significant biological pathways, such as PEROXISOME (empirical P value = 0.006), GLYCOLYSIS_GLUCONEOGENESIS (empirical P value = 0.043), and ARACHIDONIC_ACID_ METABOLISM (empirical P value = 0.040). Our study provides novel clues for the genetic mechanism studies of ALS. 相似文献

Tooth agenesis is the most common developmental dental anomaly. Absence of one or two permanent teeth is found in the majority of affected subjects. Very few patients suffer severe tooth agenesis. Recent studies revealed that WNT10A gene mutations caused syndromic and isolated severe tooth agenesis. In this study, to determine the contribution of WNT10A variants in different severities of tooth agenesis, we investigated the association between WNT10A variants and non-syndromic tooth agenesis in a Chinese population consisting of 505 tooth agenesis patients and 451 normal controls. Twenty-three novel non-synonymous variants were identified. WNT10A variants were detected in 15.8 % (75/474) of patients with 1–3 missing teeth and 51.6 % (16/31) of patients with 4 or more missing teeth. As compared with a frequency of 3.1 % in individuals with full dentition, variant allele frequencies were significantly elevated in both groups with tooth agenesis (p values of 1.00 × 10?6 and 3.89 × 10?23, respectively). Our findings showed that WNT10A variants were associated with non-syndromic tooth agenesis from mild to severe tooth agenesis, and the more severe tooth agenesis, the stronger association. Biallelic genotypes of WNT10A variants may have a pathogenic effect on tooth development. Presence of a single variant allele would be predisposing for causation with low penetrance. Together with WNT10A variant, there should be other genetic or environmental factors leading to biallelic variant-related variable clinical manifestations and single allele variant-related low penetrance. The frequent missing tooth positions in the WNT10A-related cases were consistent with that in the general population, suggesting WNT10A plays a critically important role in the etiology of general tooth agenesis. 相似文献

A prior linkage scan in Pima Indians identified a putative locus for type two diabetes (T2D) and body mass index (BMI) on chromosome 11q23-25. Association mapping across this region identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the trehalase gene (TREH) that were associated with T2D. To assess the putative connection between trehalase activity and T2D, we performed a linkage study for trehalase activity in 570 Pima Indians who had measures of trehalase activity. Strong evidence of linkage of plasma trehalase activity (LOD = 7.0) was observed in the TREH locus. Four tag SNPs in TREH were genotyped in these subjects and plasma trehalase activity was highly associated with three SNPs: rs2276064, rs117619140 and rs558907 (p = 2.2 × 10?11–1.4 × 10?23), and the fourth SNP, rs10790256, was associated conditionally on these three (p = 2.9 × 10?7). Together, the four tag SNPs explained 51 % of the variance in plasma trehalase activity and 79 % of the variance attributed to the linked locus. These four tag SNPs were further genotyped in 828 subjects used for association mapping of T2D, and rs558907 was associated with T2D (odds ratio (OR) 1.94, p = 0.002). To assess replication of the T2D association, all four tag SNPs were additionally genotyped in two non-overlapping samples of Native Americans. Rs558907 was reproducibly associated with T2D in 2,942 full-heritage Pima Indians (OR 1.27 p = 0.03) and 3,897 “mixed” heritage Native Americans (OR 1.21, p = 0.03), and the strongest evidence for association came from combining all samples (OR 1.27 p = 1.6 × 10?4, n = 7,667). However, among 320 longitudinally studied subjects, measures of trehalase activity from a non-diabetic exam did not predict those who would eventually develop diabetes versus those who would remain non-diabetic (hazard ratio 0.94 per SD of trehalase activity, p = 0.29). We conclude that variants in TREH control trehalase activity, and although one of these variants is also reproducibly associated with T2D, it is likely that the effect of the SNP on risk of T2D occurs by a mechanism different than affecting trehalase activity. Alternatively, TREH variants may be tagging a nearby T2D locus. 相似文献

CpG‐related single nucleotide polymorphisms (CGS) have the potential to perturb DNA methylation; however, their effects on Alzheimer disease (AD) risk have not been evaluated systematically. We conducted a genome‐wide association study using a sliding‐window approach to measure the combined effects of CGSes on AD risk in a discovery sample of 24 European ancestry cohorts (12,181 cases, 12,601 controls) from the Alzheimer's Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC) and replication sample of seven European ancestry cohorts (7,554 cases, 27,382 controls) from the International Genomics of Alzheimer's Project (IGAP). The potential functional relevance of significant associations was evaluated by analysis of methylation and expression levels in brain tissue of the Religious Orders Study and the Rush Memory and Aging Project (ROSMAP), and in whole blood of Framingham Heart Study participants (FHS). Genome‐wide significant (p < 5 × 10?8) associations were identified with 171 1.0 kb‐length windows spanning 932 kb in the APOE region (top p < 2.2 × 10?308), five windows at BIN1 (top p = 1.3 × 10?13), two windows at MS4A6A (top p = 2.7 × 10?10), two windows near MS4A4A (top p = 6.4 × 10?10), and one window at PICALM (p = 6.3 × 10‐9). The total number of CGS‐derived CpG dinucleotides in the window near MS4A4A was associated with AD risk (p = 2.67 × 10?10), brain DNA methylation (p = 2.15 × 10?10), and gene expression in brain (p = 0.03) and blood (p = 2.53 × 10?4). Pathway analysis of the genes responsive to changes in the methylation quantitative trait locus signal at MS4A4A (cg14750746) showed an enrichment of methyltransferase functions. We confirm the importance of CGS in AD and the potential for creating a functional CpG dosage‐derived genetic score to predict AD risk. 相似文献

Uterine fibroid (UFs) affect 77 % of women by menopause and account for $9.4 billion in healthcare costs each year. Although UFs are heritable, genetic risk is poorly understood. The first genome-wide association study (GWAS) of UFs was recently performed in a Japanese population, with reported genome-wide significance for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across three chromosomal regions. We tested these SNPs for association with UFs in US cohorts. Women were enrolled in the Right from the Start (RFTS) cohort and the BioVU DNA repository. UF status in both cohorts was determined by pelvic imaging. We tested 65 candidate and haplotype-tagging SNPs for association with UFs presence using logistic regression in RFTS and the top three GWAS-associated SNPs in BioVU. We also combined association results from both cohorts using meta-analysis. 1,086 European American (EA) cases and 1,549 controls were examined. Two SNP associations replicated [blocked early in transport 1 homolog (BET1L) rs2280543, RFTS–BioVU meta-odds ratio (OR) = 0.67 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.38–0.96, Q = 0.70, I = 0, p = 6.9 × 10?3; trinucleotide repeat containing 6B (TNRC6B) rs12484776, RFTS–BioVU meta-OR = 1.21, 95 % CI 1.07–1.35, Q = 0.24, I = 28.37, p = 8.7 × 10?3). Meta-analyses combining evidence from RFTS, BioVU, and prior GWAS showed little heterogeneity in effect sizes across studies, with meta-p values between 7.45 × 10?8 and 3.89 × 10?9, which were stronger than prior GWAS and supported associations observed for all previously identified loci. These data suggest common variants increase risk for UF in both EA and Japanese populations. However, further research is needed to assess the role of these genes across other racial groups. 相似文献

Recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) showed that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in FADS1/FADS2 were associated with plasma lipid concentrations in populations with European ancestry. We investigated the associations between the SNPs in FADS1/FADS2 and plasma concentrations of triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in two Asian groups, i.e., Japanese and Mongolians. The genotype of rs174547 (T/C), found to be associated with triglyceride and HDL-C concentrations in the GWAS, was determined in 21,004 Japanese and 1,203 Mongolian individuals. Genotype–phenotype association was assessed by using multiple linear regression models, assuming an additive model of inheritance. The copy number of the rs174547 C allele was significantly associated with increased triglyceride levels (P = 1.5 × 10?6) and decreased HDL-C levels (P = 0.03) in the Japanese population. On the other hand, in the Mongolian population, the rs174547 C allele copy number was strongly associated with decreased LDL-C levels (P = 2.6 × 10?6), but was not associated with triglyceride and HDL-C levels. The linkage disequilibrium pattern and haplotype structures of SNPs around the FADS1/FADS2 locus showed no marked dissimilarity between Japanese and Mongolian individuals. The present data indicate that the FADS1/FADS2 locus can be added to the growing list of loci involved in polygenic dyslipidemia in Asians. Furthermore, the variable effects of FADS1/FADS2 on plasma lipid profiles in Asians may result from differences in the dietary intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which serve as substrates for enzymes encoded by FADS1/FADS2. 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

The objective of this study was to identify loci associated with tail biting or being a victim of tail biting in Norwegian crossbred pigs using a genome-wide association study with PLINK case?Ccontrol analysis. DNA was extracted from hair or blood samples collected from 98 trios of crossbred pigs located across Norway. Each trio came from the same pen and consisted of one pig observed to initiate tail biting, one pig which was the victim of tail biting and a control pig which was not involved in either behaviour. DNA was genotyped using the Illumina PorcineSNP60 BeadChip whole-genome single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay. After quality assurance filtering, 53,952 SNPs remained comprising 74 animals (37 pairs) for the tail biter versus control comparison and 53,419 SNPs remained comprising 80 animals (40 pairs) for the victim of tail biting versus control comparison. An association with being a tail biter was observed on Sus scrofa chromosome 16 (SSC16; p?=?1.6?×?10?5) and an unassigned chromosome (p?=?3.9?×?10?5). An association with being the victim of tail biting was observed on Sus scrofa chromosomes 1 (SSC1; p?=?4.7?×?10?5), 9 (SSC9; p?=?3.9?×?10?5), 18 (SSC18; p?=?7?×?10?5 for 9,602,511?bp, p?=?3.4?×?10?5 for 9,653,881?bp and p?=?5.3?×?10?5 for 29,577,783 bp) and an unassigned chromosome (p?=?6.1?×?10?5). An r 2?=?0.96 and a D???=?1 between the two SNPs at 9?Mb on SSC18 indicated extremely high linkage disequilibrium, suggesting that these two markers represent a single locus. These results provide evidence of a moderate genetic association between the propensity to participate in tail-biting behaviour and the likelihood of becoming a victim of this behaviour. 相似文献

The aim of present study was to elucidate the association of CTLA4 +49 A/G and HLA-DRB1*/DQB1* gene polymorphism in south Indian T1DM patients. The patients and controls (n?=?196 each) were enrolled for CTLA4 and HLA-DRB1*/DQB1* genotyping by RFLP/PCR-SSP methods. The increased frequencies of CTLA4 ‘AG’ (OR?=?1.99; p?=?0.001), ‘GG’ (OR?=?3.94; p?=?0.001) genotypes, and ‘G’ allele (OR?=?2.42; p?=?9.26?×?10?8) were observed in patients. Reduced frequencies of ‘AA’ (OR?=?0.35; p?=?7.19?×?10?7) and ‘A’ (OR?=?0.41; p?=?9.26?×?10?8) in patients revealed protective association. Among HLA-DRB1*/DQB1* alleles, DRB1*04 (OR?=?3.29; p?=?1.0?×?10?5), DRB1*03 (OR?=?2.81; p?=?1.9?×?10?6), DQB1*02:01 (OR?=?2.93; p?=?1.65?×?10?5), DQB1*02:02 (OR?=?3.38; p?=?0.0003), and DQB1*03:02 (OR?=?7.72; p?=?0.0003) were in susceptible association. Decreased frequencies of alleles, DRB1*15 (OR?=?0.32; p?=?2.55?×?10?7), DRB1*10 (OR?=?0.45; p?=?0.002), DQB1*06:01 (OR?=?0.43; p?=?0.0001), and DQB1*05:02 (OR?=?0.28; p?=?2.1?×?10?4) in patients were suggested protective association. The combination of DRB1*03+AG (OR?=?5.21; p?=?1.4?×?10?6), DRB1*04+AG (OR?=?2.14; p?=?0.053), DRB1*04+GG (OR?=?5.21; p?=?0.036), DQB1*02:01+AG (OR?=?4.44; p?=?3.6?×?10?5), DQB1*02:02+AG (OR?=?20.9; p?=?9.5?×?10?4), and DQB1*02:02+GG (OR?=?4.06; p?=?0.036) revealed susceptible association. However, the combination of DRB1*10+AA (OR?=?0.35; p?=?0.003), DRB1*15+AA (OR?=?0.22; p?=?5.3?×?10?7), DQB1*05:01+AA (OR?=?0.45; p?=?0.007), DQB1*05:02+AA (OR?=?0.17; p?=?1.7?×?10?4), DQB1*06:01+AA (OR?=?0.40; p?=?0.002), and DQB1*06:02+AG (OR?=?0.34; p?=?0.001) showed decreased frequency in patients, suggesting protective association. In conclusion, CTLA4/HLA-DR/DQ genotypic combinations revealed strong susceptible/protective association toward T1DM in south India. A female preponderance in disease associations was also documented. 相似文献

Early menarche is associated with adverse health outcomes, including breast cancer, endometrial cancer, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Recently, a genomewide association study (GWAS) of age at menarche (AAM) in 104,533 individuals of European ancestry was reported by the ReproGen consortium. They identified 42 loci known and novel loci that were linked to age at menarche. Because age at menarche varies between ethnic groups, we decided to investigate if these results would be replicated in the Korean population. To this end, we examined the association of the SNPs reported in the ReproGen GWAS with AAM in 3,194 individuals from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) cohort. Genotype data for total 17 SNPs (6 genotyped SNPs and 11 imputed SNPs) were available for the association analysis using linear regression analysis for age at menarche with controlling current age, waist-to-hip ratio, and body mass index as the covariates. We found replication of the ReproGen study in two SNPs; one SNP (rs466639) in the retinoic acid receptor gamma gene (RXRG), showing a significant association with early menarche (beta = ?0.224 ± 0.065, p value = 5.2 × 10?4, Bonferroni-corrected p value = 0.009), and the other (rs10899489), in GRB2 (growth factor receptor bound protein 2)-associated binding protein 2 (GAB2), linked to late menarche (beta = 0.140 ± 0.047, p value = 2.8 × 10?3, Bonferroni-corrected p value = 0.049). This result possibly suggests that genetic factors governing AAM in the Korean population would be distinct from those in the Europeans, implying roles of modulating or interacting factors in determining AAM, including environmental factors such as nutritional status. 相似文献

The red-rimmed melania Melanoides tuberculata (O. F. Müller) has been used in the aquarist trade and biocontrol programs, leading to its emergence outside its native range. Two populations of the red-rimmed melania occur in Slovakia. We investigated the morphometric features of mentioned populations and made a comparison. These two populations differ significantly in investigated features. Mean shell length of red-rimmed melania individuals from the Opatovce nad Nitrou was 14.7 mm, while the mean shell length of specimens from Pie??any was 24.4 mm (p?<?10?6). Mean shell width, aperture length, and aperture width for specimens from the Opatovce nad Nitrou was 4.4 mm, 4.1 mm, and 2.3 mm, respectively. Mean shell width, aperture length, and aperture width of Pie??any specimens was 7.5 mm (p?<?10?6), 7.1 mm (p?<?10?6), and 3.8 mm (p?<?10?6), respectively. The maximum shell length of specimens from the Opatovce nad Nitrou site was 22–23 mm, while shell length of specimens from Pie??any reached 32–33 mm. Regression analysis of the shell length and shell width, aperture length and aperture width, indicate equivalent relationship of the shell patterns for the two populations. Population structure analysis provided first inside of their population status, identifying a proliferating population at the Opatovce nad Nitrou site, while only adult individuals were observed at the site in Pie??any. The red-rimmed malania is a good candidate for possible biological invasions in thermal waters of temperate zone. 相似文献

The patatin like phospholipase domain-containing (PNPLA3) I148M variant is the strongest genetic factor associated with elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) levels in different populations, particularly in Hispanics who have the highest 148M risk allele frequency reported to date. It has been suggested that Indigenous ancestry is associated with higher ALT levels in Mexicans. The aim of the present study was to assess the frequency of the PNPLA3 148M risk allele in Mexican indigenous and Mestizo individuals, and to examine its association with serum ALT levels. The study included a total of 1624 Mexican individuals: 919 Indigenous subjects from five different native groups and 705 Mexican Mestizo individuals (141 cases with ALT levels ≥40 U/L and 564 controls with ALT <40 U/L). The I148M polymorphism was genotyped by TaqMan assays. The frequency of elevated ALT levels in Indigenous populations was 18.7 %, and varied according to obesity status: 14.4 % in normal weight, 19.9 % in overweight and 24.5 % in obese individuals. The Mexican indigenous populations showed the highest reported frequency of the PNPLA3 148M risk allele (mean 0.73). The M148M genotype was significantly associated with elevated ALT levels in indigenous individuals (OR = 3.15, 95 % CI 1.91–5.20; P = 7.1 × 10?6) and this association was confirmed in Mexican Mestizos (OR = 2.24, 95 % CI 1.50–3.33; P = 8.1 × 10?5). This is the first study reporting the association between M148M genotype and elevated ALT levels in Indigenous Mexican populations. The 148M allele risk may be considered an important risk factor for liver damage in Mexican indigenous and Mestizo populations. 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
