We examined the association of the G‐protein β3 subunit gene (GNB3) C825T polymorphism with overweight in Japanese workers. This cross‐sectional study used multivariate analysis to investigate whether a polymorphism in the C825T polymorphism was associated independently with overweight when factors such as age and lifestyle were taken into account. The study in 1453 men and 1172 women involved identifying subjects with the C825T genotype using the polymerase chain reaction, followed by restriction fragment‐length polymorphism analysis. Overweight was defined as a BMI ≥25 kg/m2. Genotype distributions for C825T in overweight men (CC = 80, CT = 162, TT = 80) and women (CC = 52, CT = 91, TT = 40) were not significantly different from normal‐weight men (CC = 278, CT = 588, TT = 265) and women (CC = 242, CT = 549, TT = 198). The allele distributions were also not significantly different between either sex. The power of the study was estimated as 98% in men and 81% in women based on the allelic frequencies reported in a previous positive study in Chinese subjects. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the genotype was not significantly associated with overweight. In conclusion, this study indicated that the GNB3 C825T polymorphism is not a significant factor for overweight in Japanese people. 相似文献

We aimed to evaluate the contribution of the G-protein β3 subunit C825T (GNB3-C825T) polymorphism to essential hypertension (EH) in Han Chinese population by performing meta-analysis. A meta-analysis was performed in 12 case-control genetic association studies including 3,020 hypertension patients and 2,790 controls from MEDLINE (PubMed) and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure platforms. The STATA 10.0 software was used in analysis. Overall, there was no significant association between the GNB3-C825T polymorphism and EH in neither additive [TT vs. CC: OR (95 % CI) = 1.11 (0.74-1.69), P = 0.61; TC vs. CC: OR (95 % CI) = 1.08 (0.89-1.31), P = 0.42], nor dominant [TT + TC vs. CC: OR (95 % CI) = 1.11 (0.86-1.42), P = 0.43] and nor recessive [TT vs. TC + CC: OR (95 % CI) = 1.04 (0.75-1.44), P = 0.81] genetic models. Although further subgroup analysis found statistically significant results [T vs. C: OR (95 % CI) = 1.50 (1.05-2.15), P = 0.03] in the southern population, but after exclusion one particular study, the significant association was disappeared. No significant result was found in the northern Han Chinese population. There was no significant association identified between GNB3-C825T polymorphism and EH in Han Chinese population. Further larger sample and well-designed studies are needed to assess the genetic association particularly in the southern Han Chinese population. 相似文献

The role of G-protein activation in cardiovascular disorders is well-known. G-protein β3 subunit (GNB3) C825T polymorphism is associated with increased intracellular signal transduction. We investigated the role of the variant in plasma sodium and potassium concentrations and association with hypertension. 345 healthy controls and 455 patients with essential hypertension were enrolled. Plasma renin activity and aldosterone concentration were measured. The variant, typed by SNaPshot, was analyzed on an ABI Prism 3100 Genetic Analyzer and GeneScan. The TT genotype and T allele were over-represented in the patients (p < 0.001, p < 0.0001). Multiple-logistic regression disclosed that the risk of hypertension was significantly greater for TT (p < 0.0001, OR = 6.1, CI = 2.9-12.7). One-way ANOVA revealed that hypertensive T-allele carriers (CT+TT), compared to non-carriers (CC), had a greater body mass index (BMI), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and PAC (p = 0.01, p = 0.01, p < 0.0001, respectively); while the patients with 825TT risk genotype showed higher plasma sodium and lower potassium (p < 0.0001, each). The results strongly emphasize, not only the role of C825T polymorphism by the induction of increased G-protein activity and enhancement of Na/h exchangers, but also the association with higher plasma sodium and lower potassium levels, high BMI and susceptibility to hypertension. 相似文献

The C825T polymorphism in the GNB3 gene encoding a beta3 subunit from heterotrimeric G-proteins correlates strongly with the variation in activity of the G-proteins. It has so far been associated with a variety of medical conditions, but has not been tested for association with vesico-ureteric reflux (VUR). Primary VUR is a condition of genetic origin that appears to be inherited in an autosomal dominant mode, but with reduced penetrance. The constitutional change in G-protein-mediated cell signaling associated with the C825T polymorphism might be one of the factors that participate in the development of VUR by modifying the effect of still unknown mutated gene(s). A significant difference in genotype frequencies (chi(2) = 7.38, P = 0.025, df = 2) was observed between patients with primary VUR (33 CC homozygotes, 40 CT heterozygotes, 12 TT homozygotes) and healthy controls with no medical record of reflux (114 CC homozygotes, 88 CT heterozygotes, 18 TT homozygotes). This result suggests that the C825T polymorphism of the GNB3 gene might be associated with the development of VUR. 相似文献

Binding specificity of siglec7 to disialogangliosides of renal cell carcinoma: possible role of disialogangliosides in tumor progression 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The G protein beta3 subunit (GNB3) 825T allele is predictive of enhanced Gi protein activation. Studying the influence of C825T allele status on cellular in vitro immune responses towards recall antigens and interleukin-2 stimulation we observed a 2-4-fold, significantly increased proliferation in homozygous 825T (TT) vs. C825 allele (CC) carriers. Furthermore, lymphocyte chemotaxis and CD4(+) T cell counts of individuals with TT+TC genotypes were significantly enhanced compared to the CC genotype. In summary, it appears that C825T allele status is highly predictive of immunocompetence and could be a candidate gene in disorders associated with inadequate immune response. 相似文献

To date, the human G-protein beta 3 subunit (GNB3) gene and some of its variants represent some of the best examples of genetic influences that are involved in the determination of hypertension and obesity, which make it a sensible candidate gene for type 2 diabetes. To assess the influence of GNB3 in type II diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), we carried out a retrospective, case-control study of variant GNB3 825C>T for putative correlations with NIDDM amongst nationals from the United Arab Emirates (Emirati) - an ethnic group characterized by no alcohol intake and no cigarette smoking. We investigated a sample population of 510 Emirati (257 men, 253 women) comprising two groups - 254 controls and 256 patients with clinical diagnoses of type 2 diabetes (cases). The GNB3 C825T dimorphism showed an association with NIDDM Chi2 =22.5, 2 df, P<0.001). Further analysis revealed that the GNB3 T/T 825 genotype was positively associated with NIDDM (Yates corrected Chi2=20.6, 2 df, P<0.001; odds ratio of 2.44 with a 95% confidence interval of 1.64 - 3.63) compared to pooled CC/CT genotypes. Our data shows that GNB3 T825 allele may be involved in the pathogenesis of DM through a pathway that is different from the one implicated in obesity. 相似文献

In this study, our aim was to investigate the association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism on the vitamin B12 therapy response in 95 patients with vitamin B12 deficiency and 92 healthy control subjects using vitamin B12, plasma total homocysteine (tHcy), and folate as the main measure of outcome. MTHFR C677T genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism techniques. There were no differences in the distribution of MTHFR genotypes in the cases versus the controls. Mean concentrations of plasma tHcy and B12 vitamin were 18.84 μM and 142.47 pg/mL in patients with TT (10.5%) genotypes. Furthermore, mean concentrations of B12 vitamin after cobalamin therapy were 697.62, 656.64, and 488.76 pg/mL in patients with the CC, CT, and TT genotypes, respectively. The MTHFR 677 TT genotype has decreasing effect in B12 vitamin and increasing effect in tHcy. In comparison with the patients having CC and CT genotypes, patients with the TT genotype had a lower response to vitamin B12 therapy. 相似文献

Two genetic polymorphisms of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene (C677T and A1298C) can influence the plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels, especially in the presence of an inadequate folate status. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequencies of C677T and of A1298C MTHFR polymorphisms and their correlation with Hcy and serum folate concentrations in a population of blood donors living in a region of middle‐southern Italy (the Molise Region). One hundred ninety seven blood donors were studied for total plasma Hcy, serum folate and C677T and A1298C MTHFR genotypes. The frequency of C677T genotypes was 20.8% (CC), 49.8% (CT) and 29.4% (TT); for the A1298C genotypes: 48.7% (AA), 43.7% (AC) and 7.6% (CC). Hcy and serum folate concentrations were significantly different among genotypes of the C677T polymorphism (CC versus CT versus TT: <0.0001 both for Hcy and folate), with Hcy values increasing, and serum folate decreasing, from CC to TT subjects. Regarding to A1298C polymorphism, the difference among genotypes (AA versus AC versus CC; p: 0.026 for Hcy and 0.014 for serum folate), showed an opposite trend for both parameters, with Hcy higher in the wild‐type and lower in the homozygotes and serum folate higher in CC than in AA subjects. In conclusion, we found a high frequency of MTHFR allele associated with high level of Hcy and low levels of folate in an Italian southern population. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Elevated levels of plasma homocysteine (Hcy), a risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), can result from genetic errors, e.g., the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphism, or nutritional deficiencies, e.g., in vitamin B12 and folate. The mechanism by which Hcy induces atherosclerosis is not fully understood. Recently, Hcy has also been observed to induce DNA damage. In this study, we have investigated whether DNA damage is related to the C677T variant in the MTHFR gene and to plasma levels of Hcy, B12, and folate in patients with CAD. Patients ( n=46) with angiographically proven CAD were studied by using the micronucleus (MN) test, an accepted method for evaluating genetic instability. TT patients had plasma Hcy levels higher than those with the CT or CC genotypes (27.8+/-5.2 vs 13.7+/-2.2 and 12.9+/-1.9 micro mol/l, respectively; P=0.02). Patients with multi-vessel disease had higher plasma Hcy levels (11.6+/-1.2, 22.0+/-4.7, 19.3+/-3.9 micromol/l for one-, two- and three-vessel disease, respectively; P=0.05). The MN index increased with the number of affected vessels (8.4+/-0.7, 11.1+/-2.0, 14.2+/-1.7 for one-, two-, and three-vessels disease, respectively; P=0.02) and was significantly higher in subjects with the TT genotype compared with the CC or CT genotypes (15.7+/-2.4 vs 8.9+/-1.7 and 9.9+/-0.8; P=0.02). The MN index was also correlated negatively with plasma B12 concentration ( r=-0.343; P=0.019) and positively with plasma Hcy ( r=0.429, P=0.005). These data indicate that the MN index is associated with the severity of CAD and is related to the MTHFR polymorphism, suggesting an interesting link between coronary atherosclerosis and genetic instability in humans. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to examine plasma homocysteine levels and C677T methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphism in two ethnic groups from Slovakia. The samples consisted of general Slovak-Romany population (68 men and 81 women) from Southwestern Slovakia and the Slovak-Caucasians (174 men and 177 women) who participated in the CINDI project. The homocysteine levels were examined by HPLC, the analysis of MTHFR genotypes was done by PCR. The Slovak-Romany men (12.0+/-5.6 (S.D.) micromol/l) and women (9.2+/-2.6 microol/l) have significantly lower plasma homocysteine levels (p<0.024 and p<0.00001) when compared to Caucasians (13.3+/-5.1 micromol/l in men and 11.3+/-4.3 micromol/l in women). The genetic equilibrium is assumed for the gene frequencies of the MTHFR polymorphism in both samples. The distribution of MTHFR genotypes did not differ between the two populations (TT 13 vs. 10.6 %; CT 46.6 vs. 41.7 %; CC 40.4 vs. 47.7 %, chí(2)2 = 2.315, df=2, ns). The effect of MTHFR genotypes on homocysteine levels was not confirmed in the Slovak-Romanies and TT homozygosity significantly increased plasma homocysteine levels only in Slovak-Caucasians (11.5+/-4.4 micromol/l, ns; vs. 14.8+/-4.8 micromol/l, p 0.002, respectively). To our knowledge, this is the first epidemiological study in the Romany population examining distribution of the MTHFR genotypes and their effect on homocysteine levels. Further studies are needed to establish the variety of cardiovascular risk factors among Romanies in order to evaluate the significance of particular factors. 相似文献

Effects of the G-protein beta3 subunit 825T allele on adipogenesis and lipolysis in cultured human preadipocytes and adipocytes. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The recently discovered C825T polymorphism of the G-protein beta 3 subunit has been reported to be associated with the development of hypertension and obesity. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between the C825T polymorphism and functional aspects of human adipose cells, particularly with regard to adipose differentiation and lipolysis. Adipose tissue samples were collected from 65 women with a BMI ranging from 19.7 to 39.7 kg/m 2 undergoing surgical mammary reduction. The stromal cells were allowed to undergo differentiation in primary culture using adipogenic media of defined composition. No significant difference was observed between the CC carriers and the carriers of the T allele under all adipogenic conditions with differentiation capacity related to the genotype. In a subgroup of patients (n = 20), lipolysis in isolated fat cells was determined by measurement of glycerol in the culture medium upon catecholamine exposure. Glycerol release after 10(-7) mmol/l isoproterenol was significantly higher in fat cells from the 10 CC carriers than in adipocytes from the T allele carriers when expressed as percentage of basal glycerol release (increase above baseline: CC: 809 +/- 174 %, T allele carriers: 247 +/- 88 %, p = 0.01), while basal glycerol concentrations were no different according to genotype after controlling for either age or BMI. In conclusion, this study provides the first evidence that the GNB3 825T allele is associated with an impairment of the beta-adrenergic control of lipolysis. 相似文献

We aimed to investigate the association of polymorphism frequencies of MMP-2 C1306T and MMP-2 plasma enzyme activity in lung
cancer patients. In this study 300 genomic DNA (200 lung cancer patients + 100 no lung cancer) were analyzed. Polymorphisms
were determined by using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and electrophoresis. Plasma
MMP-2 enzyme activity levels were measured by using ELISA. Sex, asbestos expose and smoking might be risk factors for lung
cancer. The frequencies of C1306T genotypes in controls CC 65%, CT 32%, TT 3% and in patients CC 61%, CT 37%, TT2 % were found.
It was determined that CC genotype frequency increase significantly in patients and controls. Plasma MMP-2 enzyme activity
levels were increased in lung cancer patients according to controls. Finally, we claimed that determining of MMP-2 enzyme
level can be used as a marker in lung cancer. 相似文献

在中国北方汉族人群中血管紧张素转换酶基因I/D多态与G蛋白beta3亚基基因C825T多态对原发性高血压的联合作用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
原发性高血压是一种复杂的多基因疾病,被认为是多个变异了的基因遗传交互以及环境因素共同作用的结果.证据表明,血管紧张素转换酶基因和G蛋白beta3亚基基因各自都是重要的原发性高血压的易感基因,并且可能存在共同的通路来导致高血压疾病的发展.为了探索这两个基因在中国北方汉族人群中是否对高血压有影响,挑选血管紧张素转换酶基因I/D多态与G蛋白beta3亚基基因C825T多态,在一个包含502个高血压病例和490个健康对照的样本中做了关联研究.连锁不平衡分析揭示,仅仅在男性中有显著性的非随机性分布,表明血管紧张素转换酶基因与G蛋白beta3亚基基因倾向在男性中造成高血压.调整了的单位点的多变量逐步回归分析展示,在男性显性模型中DD/ID对Ⅱ的比值比达到显著性水平(OR1.57;95%CI,1.09~2.27;P=0.016).在对性别进行分层后的联合分析中,在男性中经过调整后的比值比具有弱显著性水平:在血管紧张素转换酶基因的DD基因型中,TT对CC的比值比是0.11;95%CI,0.01~0.99;P=0.049;在G蛋白beta3亚基基因的CC CT基因型中,DD/ID对Ⅱ的比值比是1.52;95%CI,1.01~2.29;P=0.047.结果暗示,血管紧张素转换酶基因或附近的某个基因是具有男性性别倾向的高血压易感侯选基因,同时,在血管紧张素转换酶基因基因的D等位基因和G蛋白beta3亚基基因的825C等位基因之间,可能存在具有上位效应的基因-基因相互作用. 相似文献

We investigated the relationships among the +1444C/T polymorphism in the C-reactive protein (CRP) gene and the concentration
of CRP and the risk of coronary heart disease. Using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, we
analyzed the frequency distribution of genotypes and alleles of the +1444C/T polymorphism in samples from 128 patients with
coronary heart disease (coronary stenosis more than 50%) and 119 unrelated normal individuals. The plasma levels of CRP and
lipids in the subjects were also measured. The frequencies of the genotypes were CC 89.1%, CT 10.9%, and TT 0% in patients
and CC 89.9%, CT 10.1%, and TT 0% in controls. The frequency of allele C was 94.5% in patients and 95.0% in controls, and
allele T was 5.5% in patients and 5.1% in controls. The distribution of genotypes and alleles in the Chinese Han population
was significantly different from that of the Caucasian population. There were no significant differences between frequencies
of genotype and allele of controls and those of patients (P>0.05), but in controls the concentrations of CRP in the CC genotype subgroup were significantly higher than those in the
CT genotype subgroup (P<0.05). This suggests that the +1444C/T variant in the CRP gene influences the basal CRP level in normal people. These findings
imply that there may eventually be a need to establish genotype-specific risk thresholds of the CRP level. 相似文献

The relationship between obesity and a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs5443 (C825T), in the guanine nucleotide binding protein beta polypeptide 3 (GNB3) gene is currently inconsistent. In this study, we aimed to reassess whether the GNB3 rs5443 SNP could influence obesity and obesity-related metabolic traits in a Taiwanese population. A total of 983 Taiwanese subjects with general health examinations were genotyped. Based on the criteria defined by the Department of Health in Taiwan, the terms “overweight” and “obesity” are defined as 24 ≦ BMI < 27 and BMI ≧ 27, respectively. Compared to the carrier of the combined CT + TT genotypes of the GNB3 rs5443 polymorphism, triglyceride was significantly higher for the carrier of CC genotype in the complete sample population (128.2 ± 93.2 vs. 114.3 ± 79.1 mg/dl; P = 0.041). In addition, the carriers of CC variant had a higher total cholesterol than those with the combined CT + TT variants (194.5 ± 36.8 vs. 187.9 ± 33.0 mg/dl; P = 0.019) in the complete sample population. In the normal controls, both triglyceride (P = 0.018) and total cholesterol (P = 0.011) were also significantly higher in the CC homozygotes than in the combined CT + TT genotypes. However, the GNB3 rs5443 SNP did not exhibit any significant association with obesity or overweight among the subjects. Our study indicates that the CC genotype of the GNB3 rs5443 SNP may predict higher obesity-related metabolic traits such as triglyceride and total cholesterol in non-obese Taiwanese subjects (but not in obese subjects). 相似文献

Association of GNB3 gene with pulse pressure and clustering of risk factors for cardiovascular disease in Japanese 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) mediate many pathways including the beta-adrenergic signaling pathway. The C825T polymorphism in the gene coding for the beta3 subunit of G proteins (GNB3) has been shown to be associated with several phenotypes such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes mellitus comprising the metabolic syndrome. The GNB3 C825T polymorphism may therefore be associated with many atherosclerosis-related phenotypes. On these grounds, we studied the C825T polymorphism in relation to atherosclerosis-related phenotypes in a large Japanese population. Analyses in general linear models showed that T carriers had a significantly wider pulse pressure (P=0.0089) as well as a significantly higher systolic blood pressure (P=0.026). In contrast, analyses in logistic regression models showed that the C825T polymorphism was not significantly associated with each of the four major classical risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease (obesity, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and diabetes mellitus). However, a significantly higher percentage of subjects had none of the four disorders in CC homozygotes than in T carriers (P=0.026). Thus, the C825T polymorphism was significantly associated with clustering of these four risk factors. Although the effect of the gene on each phenotype appears to be weak, considering the combined impact of the effects of the C825T polymorphism on risk factors, the GNB3 gene may be an important gene for human health. 相似文献

Association of MDR1 C3435T polymorphism with bipolar disorder in patients treated with valproic acid
Turgut G Kurt E Sengul C Alatas G Kursunluoglu R Oral T Turgut S Herken H 《Molecular biology reports》2009,36(3):495-499
P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an efflux transporter protein, is an ABC transporter encoded by the multidrug resistance 1 gene (MDR1,
ABCB1). The common synonymous C3435T polymorphism in exon 26 is reported to associate with lower P-gp functional expression
and drug uptake. Many extended pharmacogenomics, functional, and complex disease association studies focused mainly on this
polymorphism. We investigated the association of exon 26 C3435T genetic variants of MDR1 gene with susceptibility to bipolar
disorder and serum valproic acid concentration. Totally, 104 patients meeting DSM-IV criteria for bipolar disorder and 169
controls were admitted to the study. There was statistically significant difference between the genotypes of bipolar patients
(CT 91.2%, TT 6.8%, and CC 2%) and controls (CT 52.7%, TT 26%, CC 21.3%) although their allelic distribution was similar.
The serum valproic acid concentrations of the patients with CT, TT and CC genotypes were 72.92 ± 20.55, 80.47 ± 14.01 and
68.29 ± 12.17 μg/ml, respectively, and there was no significant difference between the C3435T genotypes. 相似文献
