An intronic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the CYP3A5 gene (CYP3A5∗3; SNP rs776746) affects RNA splicing and enzymatic activity. The CYP3A5∗3 frequency increased with distance from the equator and natural selection has been proposed to explain the worldwide distribution of this allele. CYP3A activity has been related with the risk for hypertension in pregnancy, a major cause of morbidity and mortality among women, and CYP3A5∗3 could reduce the risk for this disease in populations from regions with high sodium and water availability. The CYP3A5 genotype was related with blood pressure in the general population, but the effect on the risk for hypertension in pregnancy has not been evaluated.We compared the allele and genotype frequencies of three functional SNPs in the CYP3A5 (rs776746), CYP3A4 (rs2740574), and CYP21A2 (rs6471) genes between pregnant women who developed hypertension (n = 250) or who remained normotensive (control group, n = 250). In addition, we sequenced the full CYP3A5 coding sequence in 40 women from the two groups to determine whether some gene variants could explain the risk for hypertensive pregnancies in our population.Allele and genotype frequencies did not differ between hypertensive and normotensive women for the three CYP variants. We did not find CYP3A5 nucleotide changes that could explain a higher risk for hypertension in pregnancy. Our data suggests that the variation in CYP3A5, CYP3A4, and CYP21A2 did not contribute to the risk for hypertension in pregnancy in our population. 相似文献

Warfarin is the cardinal anticoagulant drug prescribed around the world. Due to stochastic bleeding in patients, it is essential to adjust the dose for every individual. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene polymorphisms and their association with warfarin maintenance dose in a sample of cardiovascular patients in Birjand, South-Khorasan province of Iran. Patients with a history of cardiovascular disorders who take warfarin daily were selected. CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene polymorphisms were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in all participants. A total of 114 patients (mean age: 52.7 ± 14.9 years, M/F ratio: 0.76) participated in this study. Regarding CYP2C9 gene polymorphisms, the most frequent genotype was 1*/1* (80.4% in females and 62.5% in males). The frequency of 1*/2* and 2*/2* variants was 13% and 6.5% in females and 25% and 12.5% in males, respectively. The frequency of VKORC1 gene (1639 G > A), was 31.5%, 39.5%, and 29% for GG, GA, and AA in males, respectively. Besides, the mentioned genotype frequencies for females were 50%, 40.5%, and 9.5%, respectively. Moreover, there was a statistically significant correlation between VKORC1 gene −1639 G > A variant and warfarin maintenance dose (P < 0.001) but not for CYP2C9 variants. The results of the current study confirmed that the mutant variants of CYP2C9 are not frequent and do not have any impact on warfarin dose. In the case of VKORC1, the mutant allele (A) showed a positive correlation with warfarin dose adjustment. 相似文献

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of death around the world. Its genetic mechanism was intensively investigated in the past decades with findings of a number of canonical oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes such as APC, KRAS, and TP53. Recent genome-wide association and sequencing studies have identified a series of promising oncogenes including IDH1, IDH2, DNMT3A, and MYD88 in hematologic malignancies. However, whether these genes are involved in CRC remains unknown. In this study, we screened the hotspot mutations of these four genes in 305 CRC samples from Han Chinese by direct sequencing. mRNA expression levels of these genes were quantified by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) in paired cancerous and paracancerous tissues. Association analyses between mRNA expression levels and different cancerous stages were performed. Except for one patient harboring IDH1 mutation p.I99M, we identified no previously reported hotspot mutations in colorectal cancer tissues. mRNA expression levels of IDH1, DNMT3A, and MYD88, but not IDH2, were significantly decreased in the cancerous tissues comparing with the paired paracancerous normal tissues. Taken together, the hotspot mutations of IDH1, IDH2, DNMT3A, and MYD88 gene were absent in CRC. Aberrant mRNA expression of IDH1, DNMT3A, and MYD88 gene might be actively involved in the development of CRC. 相似文献

The CYP2C9 enzyme metabolizes a wide range of relevant drugs, among which are oral anticoagulants. VKORC1 is the pharmacodynamic target of the oral anticoagulants. The genetic polymorphisms CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1 ‐1639 G>A are the major determinants of the inter‐individual variability in the dosage requirements of oral anticoagulants. This study provides a first evaluation of these 3 polymorphisms in a Romanian population. A total of 332 Romanian individuals were genotyped for the CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1 ‐1639 G>A polymorphisms using the PCR‐RFLP technique. Sixty‐two individuals (18.7%) were heterozygous for CYP2C9*2, whereas 47 individuals (14.1%) were heterozygous for CYP2C9*3. Fourteen individuals (4.2%) had a CYP2C9*2 homozygous, CYP2C9*3 homozygous or CYP2C9*2/CYP2C9*3 compound heterozygous genotype. These individuals are predicted to have the lowest CYP2C9 enzymatic activity. The allele frequencies of the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 polymorphisms were 11.3% and 9.3% respectively. For the VKORC1 ‐1639 G>A polymorphism, there were 170 heterozygotes (51.2%) and 55 (16.6%) homozygotes for the A allele. The frequency of the A allele was 42.2%. Overall, the distribution of the CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1 ‐1639 G>A polymorphisms observed in our cohort is in accordance with other Caucasian populations. A large number of Romanians are expected to harbour at least one CYP2C9 variant allele and/or one VKORC1 ‐1639 G>A allele. This frequency has major implications in the pharmacogenomics of oral anticoagulants in Romanians. 相似文献

In this study, we have investigated the association between osteoporosis and osteocalcin (BGLAP) − 298 C>T, estrogen receptor 1 (ER1) 397 T>C, collagen type1 alpha 1 (Col1A1) 2046 G>T and calcitonin receptor (CALCR) 1340 T>C polymorphisms. Genomic DNA was obtained from 266 persons (158 osteoporotic and 108 healthy controls). Genomic DNA was extracted from EDTA-preserved peripheral venous blood of patients and controls by a salting-out method and analyzed by PCR-RFLP. As a result, there was no statistically significant difference in the genotype and allele frequencies of patients and controls for BGLAP − 298 C>T, Col1A1 2046 G>T, ER1 397 T>C and CALCR 1340 T>C polymorphisms. However, ER1 CC genotype compared with TT + TC genotypes was found to increase the two fold the risk of osteoporosis [p = 0.039, OR = 2.156, 95% CI (1.083–4.293)] and CALCR CC genotype compared with TT + TC genotypes was found to have protective effect against osteoporosis [p = 0.045, OR = 0.471, 95% CI (0.237–0.9372)]. In the combined genotype analysis, ER1/CALCR TCCC combined genotype was estimated to have protective effect against osteoporosis [p = 0.0125, OR = 0.323, 95% CI (0.1383–0.755)] whereas BGLAP/Col1A1 CCTT and ER1/CALCR CCTT combined genotypes were estimated as risk factors for osteoporosis in Turkish population (p = 0.027, p = 0.009 respectively). 相似文献

Endothelial dysfunction plays an essential role in the development and progression of atherosclerotic lesions. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) are considered important molecules in the endothelial dysfunction process. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of eNOS and ET-1 (EDN1) gene polymorphisms as susceptibility markers for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Six polymorphisms (rs1799983, rs2070744, rs1800783, rs3087459, rs1800541, and rs5369) of eNOS and EDN1 genes were analyzed by 5′ exonuclease TaqMan genotyping assays in a group of 452 patients with ACS and 283 healthy controls. The results showed increased frequencies of the A allele of the END1-914 C>A (rs3087459) polymorphism in ACS patients when compared to controls (OR = 1.56, Pc = 0.01). Under an additive model, the “AA” genotype was associated with an increased risk of developing ACS, adjusted for gender, hypertension, dyslipidemia, alcohol consumption, smoking, and diabetes (OR = 1.56, p = 0.045). Linkage disequilibrium analysis showed one EDN1 haplotype (AT) with increased frequency in ACS patients when compared to healthy controls (OR = 1.65, Pc = 0.0015). The “AT” haplotype was associated with the risk of developing ACS after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors using multiple logistic analysis. In this case, the adjusted OR was 1.73 for the AT haplotype (Pc = 0.0018). In summary, resulting data suggest that the END1-914 C>A gene polymorphism could be involved in the risk of developing ACS in Mexican individuals. 相似文献

What has driven the sweep of the Accord retrotransposon insertion allele of CYP6G1 in the natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster is unknown. Previous studies on the DDT selection hypothesis produced conflicting data. To reexamine the DDT selection hypothesis and search for alternative explanations, we conducted a series of correlation and genetic linkage experiments with eight D. melanogaster natural populations collected from California (CM1, CM2, CM3, and CM7) and Africa (AM2, AM3, AM4, AM7). Diagnostic PCR showed that CM1, CM2, CM7, and AM3 have the Accord insertion in the CYP6G1 locus, whereas the other four strains do not. RT-PCR analysis exhibits a 100% correlation between Accord insertion and CYP6G1 overexpression. However, among the four strains with Accord-mediated CYP6G1 overexpression only CM1 and CM7 are resistant to DDT, and the other two strains (CM2 and AM3), like the four Accord-free strains, are susceptible to DDT. By contrast, all the four strains with Accord-mediated CYP6G1 overexpression are resistant to nicotine, a plant allelochemical. Genetic crosses between DDT resistant and susceptible Accord-insertion strains, as well as crosses between Accord-insertion and Accord-free strains demonstrated that Accord insertion and CYP6G1 overexpression are genetically linked to nicotine resistance rather than DDT resistance. These results suggest that naturally-occurring allelochemicals such as nicotine are the initial driving force for the worldwide prevalence of the Accord insertion allele of CYP6G1 in D. melanogaster natural populations. 相似文献

Epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma (EPPK) is the most frequent form of such keratodermas. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern and is clinically characterized by diffuse yellowish thickening of the skin on the palms and soles with erythematous borders during the first weeks or months after birth. EPPK is generally caused by mutations of the KRT9 gene. More than 26 KRT9 gene mutations responsible for EPPK have been described (Human Intermediate Filament Database, www.interfil.org), and many of these variants are located within the highly-conserved coil 1A region of the α-helical rod domain of keratin 9. Unfortunately, there is no satisfactory treatment for EPPK. Thus, prenatal molecular diagnosis or pre-pregnancy diagnosis is crucial and benefits those affected who seek healthy descendants. In the present study, we performed amniotic fluid-DNA-based prenatal testing for three at-risk pregnant EPPK women from three unrelated southern Chinese families who carried the KRT9 missense mutations p.Arg163Trp and p.Arg163Gln, and successfully helped two families to bear normal daughters. We suggest that before the successful application of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), and noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of EPPK that analyzes fetal cells or cell-free DNA in maternal blood, prenatal genetic diagnosis by amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS) offers a quite acceptable option for EPPK couples-at-risk to avoid the birth of affected offspring, especially in low- and middle-income countries. 相似文献

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common and lethal autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder, which is caused by mutations of the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. Additionally, the phenotype is modified by several genes nearby SMN1 in the 5q13 region. In this study, we analyzed mutations in SMN1 and quantified the modifying genes, including SMN2, NAIP, GTF2H2, and H4F5 by polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), TA cloning, allele-specific long-range PCR, and Sanger sequencing in 157 SMA patients. Most SMA patients (94.90%) possessed a homozygous SMN1 deletion, while 10 patients demonstrated only the absence of exon 7, but the presence of exon 8. Two missense mutations (c.689 C > T and c.844 C > T) were identified in 2 patients who both carried a single copy of SMN1. We found inverse correlations between SMN2, the NAIP copy number, and the clinical severity of the disease. Furthermore, 7 severe type I patients possessed large-scale deletions, including SMN1, NAIP, and GTF2H2. We conclude that SMN1 gene conversion, SMN1 subtle mutations, SMN2 copy number, and the extent of deletion in the 5q13 region should all be considered in the genotype–phenotype analysis of SMA. 相似文献

Chewing betel quid may release chemical carcinogens including xenobiotics resulting in oral malignancy cases preceded by potential malignant lesions and conditions — Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSF) being one of them. The cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) enzyme is central to the metabolic activation of these xenobiotics, whereas CYP2E1 metabolizes the nitrosamines and tannins. The present study investigated the association of polymorphisms at CYP1A1m1 (T3801C), m2 (A2455G), and CYP2E1 PstI site (nucleotide 21259) with the risk of OSF. The study was conducted on 75 OSF patients and 150 controls from an eastern Indian population. The above polymorphisms were analyzed by PCR-RFLP method. Analyses of data show that polymorphisms in CYP1A1m2 [OR = 8.25 (4.31–15.80)]; CYP1A1m1 [OR = 2.88 (1.57–5.24)] and CYP2E1 PstI site [OR = 3.16 (1.10–9.04)] revealed significant association with OSF. Our results suggest that polymorphism in CYP1A1 and CYP2E1 may confer an increased risk for Oral Submucous Fibrosis. 相似文献

Polymorphisms of CYP450 metabolizer enzymes and transport proteins play crucial roles in the inter‐individual variability of drug efficiency. The aim of our study was to predict the frequency of functional variants of CYP2D6, CYP2C19 and ABCB1 genes in the Hungarian population. One hundred twelve unrelated healthy subjects donated DNA sample in the study. ABCB1 C3435T and G2677T/A single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were determined by LightCycler polymerase chain reaction. Because only limited amount of data is available on the rare allelic variants of CYP2D6 in the European populations, our study applied an expanded set of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 alleles by using AmpliChip test. Our results show that the CYP2D6 phenotypes were 1.9% ultra‐rapid metabolizer, 6.5% intermediate metabolizer (IM), 8.3% poor metabolizer (PM) and 83.3% extensive metabolizer (EM), and the CYP2C19 phenotypes were 1.8% PM, 31.2% IM and 67% EM. The prevalence of the commonly observed CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 alleles in our study corresponds with that of other European populations. Nevertheless, our study confirms that extending the CYP2D6 allele set with loss‐of‐function variants such as CYP2D6*7, *9, *41 is worth considering. Frequency of the wild type ABCB1 3435C was 42.8% whereas the prevelance of 2677 G was 50.4%. Although frequency data of G2677T/A SNP in the European area are limited, some discrepancies with other studies were found. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Type I cytochrome c3 is a key protein in the bioenergetic metabolism of Desulfovibrio spp., mediating electron transfer between periplasmic hydrogenase and multihaem cytochromes associated with membrane bound complexes, such as type II cytochrome c3. This work presents the NMR assignment of the haem substituents in type I cytochrome c3 isolated from Desulfovibrio africanus and the thermodynamic and kinetic characterisation of type I and type II cytochromes c3 belonging to the same organism. It is shown that the redox properties of the two proteins allow electrons to be transferred between them in the physiologically relevant direction with the release of energised protons close to the membrane where they can be used by the ATP synthase. 相似文献

Arabidopsis thaliana APETALA3 (AP3) and Antirrhinum majus DEFICIENS (DEF) MADS box genes are required to specify petal and stamen identity. AP3 and DEF are members of the euAP3 lineage, which arose by gene duplication coincident with radiation of the core eudicots. In order to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying organ development in early diverging clades of core eudicots, we isolated and identified an AP3 homolog, FaesAP3, from Fagopyrum esculentum (buckwheat, Polygonaceae), a multi-food-use pseudocereal with healing benefits. Protein sequence alignment and phylogenetic analyses revealed that FaesAP3 grouped into the euAP3 lineage. Expression analysis showed that FaesAP3 was transcribed only in developing stamens, and differed from AP3 and DEF, which expressed in developing petals and stamens. Moreover, ectopic expression of FaesAP3 rescued stamen development without complementation of petal development in an Arabidopsis ap3 mutant. Our results suggest that FaesAP3 is involved in the development of stamens in buckwheat. These results also suggest that FaesAP3 holds some potential for biotechnical engineering to create a male sterile line of F. esculentum. 相似文献

BMPR-1B and GDF9 genes are well known due to their important effects on litter size and mechanisms controlling ovulation rate in sheep. In the present study, polymorphisms of BMPR-1B gene exon 8 and GDF9 gene exon 1 were detected by single strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis and DNA sequencing methods in 100 Mehraban ewes. The PCR reaction forced to amplify 140 and 380-bp fragments of BMPR-1B and GDF9 genes, respectively. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPS) were identified in two different SSCP patterns of BMPR-1B gene (CC and CA genotypes) that deduced one amino acid exchange. Also, two SNPS were identified in three different SSCP patterns of GDF9 gene (AA, AG and GG genotypes) that deduced one amino acid exchanges. Two different secondary structures of protein were predicted for BMPR-1B exon 8, but the secondary protein structures predicted for GDF9 exon 1 were similar together. The evaluation of the associations between the SSCP patterns and the protein structure changes with reproduction traits showed that BMPR-1B exon 8 genotypes have significant effects on some of reproduction traits but the GDF9 genotypes did not have any significant effect. The CA genotype of BMPR-1B exon 8 had a significant positive effect on reproduction performance and could be considered as an important and new mutation, affecting the ewes reproduction performance. Marker assisted selection using BMPR-IB gene could be noticed to improve the reproduction traits in Mehraban sheep. 相似文献

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the diffusion rate of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) through the plasma membrane decreases during adaptation to H2O2 by means of a mechanism that is still unknown. Here, evidence is presented that during adaptation to H2O2 the anisotropy of the plasma membrane increases. Adaptation to H2O2 was studied at several times (15min up to 90min) by applying the steady-state H2O2 delivery model. For wild-type cells, the steady-state fluorescence anisotropy increased after 30min, or 60min, when using 2-(9-anthroyloxy) stearic acid (2-AS), or diphenylhexatriene (DPH) membrane probe, respectively. Moreover, a 40% decrease in plasma membrane permeability to H2O2 was observed at 15min with a concomitant two-fold increase in catalase activity. Disruption of the ergosterol pathway, by knocking out either ERG3 or ERG6, prevents the changes in anisotropy during H2O2 adaptation. H2O2 diffusion through the plasma membrane in S. cerevisiae cells is not mediated by aquaporins since the H2O2 permeability constant is not altered in the presence of the aquaporin inhibitor mercuric chloride. Altogether, these results indicate that the regulation of the plasma membrane permeability towards H2O2 is mediated by modulation of the biophysical properties of the plasma membrane. 相似文献
