An increasing amount of evidence suggests that interleukin-18 (IL-18) plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. However, association between single nucleotide polymorphism of IL-18 and the risk of schizophrenia has not been clarified. This study examined whether two promoter polymorphisms -137 G/C (rs187238) and -607 C/A (rs1946518) of IL-18 were associated with schizophrenia and six clinical symptoms (disorder of perception, thought disorder, disturbance of emotion, disorder of behavior and volition, suicide action, and aggressive action) to provide data for screening high-risk Han Chinese individuals. Three hundred seventy-two schizophrenic patients and 353 healthy controls from a Han Chinese population were examined to assess their genotype and allele frequencies of the two promoter polymorphisms of IL-18. The genotype distributions in both patients and controls were within Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. No significant differences were observed in the genotype or the allele frequencies of the two single-nucleotide polymorphisms between patients and controls. However, genotype frequencies of -607 C/A showed significant differences between patients and controls in the appearance of perception disorder (χ2 = 6.153, p = 0.046). A significant difference was detected in -137 G/C between patients and controls in the appearance of aggressive action (χ2 = 3.909, p = 0.048). In conclusion, IL-18 gene promoter polymorphisms may not contribute to the susceptibility of schizophrenia in a Han Chinese population, but two single-nucleotide polymorphisms, -137 G/C and -607 C/A, may play a role in the development of perception disorder and aggressive action, respectively. 相似文献

Background
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have mapped several novel loci influencing blood lipid levels in Caucasians. We sought to explore whether the genetic variants at newly identified lipid-associated loci were associated with CHD susceptibility in a Chinese Han population.Methodology/Principal Findings
We conducted a two-stage case-control study in a Chinese Han population. The first-stage, consisting of 1,376 CHD cases and 1,376 sex and age- frequency matched controls, examined 5 novel lipid-associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified from GWAS among Caucasians in relation to CHD risk in Chinese. We then validated significant SNPs in the second-stage, consisting of 1,269 cases and 2,745 controls. We also tested associations between SNPs within the five novel loci and blood lipid levels in 4,121 controls. We identified two novel SNPs (rs599839 in CELSR2-PSRC1-SORT1 and rs16996148 in NCAN-CILP2) that were significantly associated with reduced CHD risk in Chinese (odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) in the dominant model 0.76 (0.61-0.90; P = 0.001), 0.67 (0.57-0.77; P = 3.4×10−8), respectively). Multiple linear regression analyses using dominant model showed that rs599839 was significantly associated with decreased LDL levels (P = 0.022) and rs16996148 was significantly associated with increased LDL and HDL levels (P = 2.9×10−4 and 0.001, respectively).Conclusions/Significance
We identified two novel SNPs (rs599839 and rs16996148) at newly identified lipid-associated loci that were significantly associated with CHD susceptibility in a Chinese Han population. 相似文献5.

Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a potent proinflammatory cytokine that is now considered a key component of atherosclerosis. Proinflammatory gene polymorphisms lead to variations in the production and level of the proteins. In light of these findings, we hypothesized that variations in the gene coding for IL-15 influence the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) by modulating the IL-15 levels. To test this hypothesis, we examined 5 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IL-15 gene and IL-15 levels in 102 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), 102 patients with chronic ischemic stable CHD and 162 healthy control subjects. This study is the first report showing the influences of IL-15 gene variants and IL-15 levels on CHD. The five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the IL-15 gene, G367A, C267T, A14035T, C13687A, and A10504G were carried out by polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR/RFLP). Serum IL-15 levels were significantly higher in both acute and chronic patients than in controls. Genetic variants of IL-15 gene and IL-15 levels were associated with CHD. In conclusion, our study supports the hypothesis that genetic variation in IL-15 gene and IL-15 levels influence the risk of CHD. Further studies are needed to confirm our hypothesis. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to assess the influences of PRKCH gene variants (1425G/A and _15) on the risk of coronary
artery disease (CAD) in a Chinese population. Our study population consisted of 470 CAD patients and 434 control subjects.
The alleles frequencies of the two variants were significantly higher among CAD patients than control subjects (P = 0.001 for 1425G/A and P = 0.001 for _15, respectively). In the CAD group, the A allele carriers of 1425G/A and _15 polymorphisms had higher low-density
lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels than homozygote G allele carriers (P = 0.001 and P = 0.021, respectively). In a multiple logistic regression model adjusted for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), etc., a markedly
increased risk of developing CAD was found in subjects carrying GA or AA genotype (P = 0.005 and P = 0.018, respectively). In conclusion, we observed that there was a remarkable association of minor alleles (1425G/A and
_15) in the PRKCH gene with an elevated risk of CAD and increased levels of LDL-C in this Chinese population. 相似文献

In a pair-matched case–control study (239 versus 478) conducted in Chinese Han population, we investigated the association between tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) gene, tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 1 (TRAF1) gene, complement component 5 (C5) gene, and rheumatic heart disease (RHD). We observed no association with RHD for the five tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNP) in the C5 gene, the three tSNPs in the TNFAIP3 gene, or the two tSNPs in the TRAF1 gene. However, we determined that the tSNP, rs582757, located at intron_5 of the TNFAIP3 gene, associated with RHD in Chinese Han population. Both the distribution of genotype and allele frequencies differed significantly between case and control subjects (p?=?0.001 and p?=?0.0004, respectively). The minor C allele reduced the risk of RHD with a per-allele odds ratio of 0.57 (0.42–0.78) for the additive model in univariate analysis (p?=?0.000). Under a dominant model, CC/CT carriers had a 0.54-fold reduced risk of RHD (95% confidence interval 0.38–0.75, p?=?0.000) than TT carriers. Therefore, we report a new genetic variant (rs582757) in the TNFAIP3 gene that associated with the prevalence of RHD in Chinese Han population. Further genetic and functional studies are required to identify the etiological variants in linkage disequilibrium with this polymorphism. 相似文献

Several novel loci have been proved to be associated with coronary artery disease and/or myocardial infarction risk by genome-wide association studies, however, the available coronary artery disease risk variants explain only a small proportion of the predicted genetic heritability of the disease. Recently, a novel coronary artery disease locus on chromosome 6p21.3 in the major histocompatibility complex was identified in an European population. We hereby investigated whether this single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs3869109) confers the risk of premature coronary artery disease in a Chinese Han population. A total of 422 patients were studied including 210 cases with coronary stenosis ≥50 % or previous myocardial infarction (male <55 years and female <65 years) and 212 controls without documented coronary artery disease. Ligase detection reaction was performed to detect rs3869109. The 3 genotypes AA, AG, and GG were present in rs3869109. There were significant differences between the control and premature coronary artery disease groups in the frequencies of the rs3869109 variants and alleles (all P < 0.05). The distribution of 3 genotypes and alleles at rs3869109 does not differ between women and men (all P > 0.05). There was a significant association between rs3869109 genotypes and the severity of premature coronary artery disease (P = 0.038). Multivariate logistic regression showed that carriers with AG and GG genotypes at rs3869109 have a higher risk of premature coronary artery disease than carriers of AA genotype (odds ratio [OR] 1.997, 95 % CI: 1.166–3.419, P = 0.012; OR 1.695, 95 % CI: 1.044–2.752, P = 0.033; respectively). Our results indicate that the rs3869109 variants are associated with premature coronary artery disease in a Chinese Han population, suggesting this genetic risk marker is useful in early coronary artery disease risk prediction. 相似文献

Objective
Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-4 (IRAK-4) encodes a kinase that is essential for NF-kB activation in Toll-like receptor and T-cell receptor signaling pathways, indicating a possible crosstalk between innate and acquired immunities. We attempted to determine whether the polymorphisms in the Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-4 (IRAK-4) gene are associated with allergic rhinitis (AR) in the Han Chinese population.Methods
A population of 379 patients with AR and 333 healthy controls was studied. Blood was drawn for DNA extraction and total serum immunoglobulin E (IgE). A total of 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IRAK-4 were selected and individually genotyped.Results
Significant allelic differences between cases and controls were obtained for the SNP of rs3794262 in the IRAK-4 gene. In the stratified analysis for gender, two SNPs (rs4251431 and rs6582484) in males appeared as significant associations. Subgroup analysis for the presence of different allergen sensitivities displayed associations only in the house dust mite-allergic cohorts (rs3794262, rs4251481). None of the selected SNPs in IRAK-4 was associated with total IgE level. The haplotype analyisis indicated GCCTGCGA was significantly associated with AR. The SNP-SNP interaction information analysis indicated that the selected sets of polymorphisms had no synergistic effect.Conclusions
Our findings did not support the potential contribution of the IRAK-4 gene to serum IgE levels. However, the results demonstrated a gender- and allergen-dependant association pattern between polymorphisms in IRAK-4 and AR in Chinese population. 相似文献13.

We recently reported an association between interleukin-6 (IL6) polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes and aggressive periodontitis (AgP). The aim of this study was to investigate this association in a larger cohort of subjects, affected by either aggressive or chronic periodontitis. Five IL6 SNPs were analyzed in 765 subjects (167 generalized aggressive periodontitis, 57 localized aggressive, 310 chronic periodontitis and 231 periodontally healthy). Among Caucasians (n = 454) there were moderate associations for ?1363T allele (p = 0.011) and for ?174GG and ?1363GG genotypes with diagnosis of periodontitis (respectively, p = 0.044, OR = 1.6, 95% CI = 1.0–2.4, and p = 0.017, OR = 1.8, 95% CI = 1.1–2.8, adjusted for age, gender and smoking). Haplotypes containing the ?174G>C, ?1363G>T and ?1480C>G polymorphisms were associated with diagnosis of periodontitis (p = 0.02). Subgroup analysis by disease phenotype showed associations for the localized AgP (LAgP) group and ?1480C>G and ?6106A>T SNPs (p = 0.007 and 0.010, respectively). Among Caucasians the genotypes IL6 ?1480 CC and ?6106 TT increased the adjusted OR for LAgP (OR = 3.09 and 2.27, respectively). This study supports the hypothesis that IL6 polymorphisms and haplotypes are moderately associated with periodontitis, possibly acting through influencing tissue levels of IL6. This association is stronger for LAgP than for other periodontal disease phenotypes. 相似文献

There is evidence suggesting that genetic variants of Nodal signaling may be associated with risk of congenital heart diseases (CHDs), in which several polymorphisms, such as Nodal rs1904589, have been considered to be implicated in the accumulation of the genetic burden of CHD risk with interacting genes. We hypothesized that genetic variants of GDF1, a protein that heterodimerizes with Nodal, may be related to increased CHD susceptibility. In this study, four tagSNPs of GDF1 were genotyped in 310 non-syndromic CHD patients and 320 healthy controls by using PCR-based DHPLC and RFLP. The results showed no statistically significant differences in genotype and allele frequencies between CHDs and controls with any of the analyzed variants of GDF1. However, a weak statistical association existed between GDF1 rs4808870 and conotruncal defects (CTDs) (uncorrected P = 0.027). Further stratified analysis for subtype revealed the SNP AA genotype and A allele have statistical significance in pulmonary atresia (PA) (corrected P = 1.01 × 10?3 and 0.015, respectively), especially in pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA + IVS) (corrected P = 1.67 × 10?3 and 0.034, respectively). Furthermore, two haplotypes, TGGT and CAGT, were found to be significantly associated with increased CHD susceptibility (corrected P = 3.20 × 10?3 and 2.73 × 10?7, respectively). In summary, our results provide evidence that genetic variations of the Nodal-like factor, GDF1 may be associated with CHD risk, and these variations contribute at least in part to the development of some subtypes of CTD in the Chinese Han population. 相似文献

OX40 and OX40L, members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, are costimulatory molecules involved in the activation and proliferation of T lymphocytes. OX40L plays an important role in the process of atherosclerosis, and variants of OX40/OX40L are associated with myocardial infarction in European populations. Our study examined 235 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and 220 controls and sought to establish whether polymorphisms in OX40/OX40L are associated with atherosclerosis or myocardial infarction in the Han Chinese population. OX40 rs17568A/G, rs2298212A/G, and OX40L rs3850641A/G polymorphisms were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The results showed that carriers of the G allele of rs17568A/G had a significantly increased risk of ACS (p?=?0.023, adjusted odds ratio?=?1.72, 95% confidence interval?=?1.08-2.75) after adjusting for age, sex, diabetes, hypertension, and lipids. No significant association between rs2298212A/G or rs3850641A/G and the risk of ACS was found in this study. In conclusion, OX40 gene polymorphism may be associated with a risk of ACS in the Han Chinese population, although the association between OX40L polymorphisms and ACS requires further investigation. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Interleukin-1 (IL-1) gene family are associated with central obesity and metabolic syndrome in a coronary heart disease population. The IL-1α C-889T (rs1800587) and IL-1β +3954 (rs1143634) SNPs were studied in a Western Australian coronary heart disease (CHD) population (N = 556). Subjects who were TT homozygous at either SNP had larger waist circumference (IL-1α: 1.8 cm greater, P = 0.04; IL-1β: 4 cm greater, P = 0.0004) compared with major allele homozygotes. Individuals with two copies of the IL-1α:IL-1β
T:T haplotype had greater waist circumference (4.7 cm greater, P = 0.0001) compared to other haplotypes. There was a significant interaction between the IL-1β SNP and BMI level on waist circumference (P = 0.01). When the cohort was stratified by median BMI, TT carriers for IL-1β with above median BMI had greater waist circumference (6.1 cm greater, P = 0.007) compared to baseline carriers, whilst no significant association was seen in the below median group. Similarly,
when the cohort was stratified by median fibrinogen level (IL-1α interaction P = 0.01; IL-1β interaction P = 0.04), TT carriers for both SNPs in the above median fibrinogen group had greater waist circumference (IL-1α 2.7 cm greater, P = 0.007; IL-1β 3.3 cm greater, P = 0.003) compared with major allele homozygotes. This association was not seen in the below median group. Also, we found
a trend of increased metabolic syndrome for IL-1β TT homozygotes (P = 0.07). In conclusion, our findings suggest that in a CHD population IL-1 gene polymorphisms may be involved in increased central obesity, and the genetic influences are more evident among patients
who have a higher level of obesity or inflammatory markers. 相似文献
