FOXP3 X-linked gene has crucial roles in the development and function of regulatory T cells. We investigated the association of FOXP3 rs3761548, rs3761549 and rs2294021 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) susceptibility and response to therapy. Genotyping was performed in 247 patients and 210 healthy subjects. We observed a higher frequency of rs3761548 A carriers and rs2294021 C carriers (p?<?0.04) in male patients, and lower frequencies of rs3761548 AC genotype (p?=?0.04) and rs2294021 CT genotype (p?=?0.01) in female patients compared to controls. ACC (p?=?0.04) and ATC haplotypes (p?=?0.002) were associated with susceptibility to ALL. There was a significant correlation between the genotypes of rs3761548 and rs2294021 SNPs with event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS). The rs3761548 A genotype in male patients was associated with increased risk of relapse (p?<?0.0001), shorter EFS, increased death rate (p?=?0.002) and shorter OS compared to C genotype (p?=?0.001). Similar significant results were observed for the relation of rs2294021 C genotype with response to therapy in male patients. In females, patients with rs3761548 AC genotype had longer EFS (p?=?0.02) and those with rs2294021 CT had longer EFS and OS (p?<?0.005). According to haplotype analysis, patients carrying ACC or ATC haplotypes had the highest number of WBCs and shorter EFS or OS, and patients with CCT haplotype had the lowest number of WBCs and longer EFS or OS. These results provided evidence for the impact of these polymorphisms on susceptibility and response to therapy in children with ALL.

To investigate the association between the polymorphisms of fatty acid desaturase 1 (FADS1), fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2) and elongation of very long chain fatty acids like 2 (ELOVL2) gene and coronary artery disease (CAD) in a Chinese Han population. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from these genes were genotyped using PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis in 199 CAD cases and 192 controls of Han Chinese origin. rs174556 in the FADS1 gene showed allelic (P=0.002) and genotypic (P=0.030) association with the disease, while there was no disease association for the other two SNPs. The frequency of rs174556 minor allele (T) was significantly higher in the case group than the control group. The trans phase gene–gene interaction analysis showed that the combined genotype of rs174556 (T/T) and rs3756963 (T/T) was weakly associated with the disease (P=0.043). rs174556 in the FADS1 gene is very likely to be associated with CAD in the Chinese Han population.  相似文献

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is multifactorial disease which occurs as a result of the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Obesity is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Recent genome-wide association studies have identified several genes associated with obesity in Europeans. We wondered whether these genetic variants were associated with CAD. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs7561317 near TMEM18, rs7138803 near BCDIN3D/FAIM2 and rs12970134 near MC4R were examined in 930 Han Chinese subjects based on coronary angiography, using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. There were no significant differences in genotypes and allele distributions of three SNPs between CAD and CAD-free groups. The AA genotype of SNP rs12970134 near MC4R was associated to obesity both in CAD group and CAD-free group in Han Chinese population (P < 0.001, OR = 2.96, 95% CI 2.01–3.73; and P = 0.003, OR = 2.59, 95% CI 1.86–3.19, respectively). Our observations suggest that the polymorphism rs12970134 near MC4R may be associated to the risk of obesity in Han Chinese population.  相似文献

Background

We investigated the relationships between the ALOX5AP gene rs10507391 and rs4769874 polymorphisms, serum levels of leukotriene (LT) B4, and risk of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Methods

A total of 709 participants, comprising 508 ACS patients (ACS group) and 201 noncoronary artery disease patients with chest pain (control group) were recruited from the Han population of the Changwu region in China. Two polymorphic loci were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Serum LTB4 level was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Results

Serum LTB4 levels were significantly higher (P<0.001) in the ACS group (median/interquartile range, 470.27/316.32 pg/ml) than in the control group (233.05/226.82 pg/ml). No statistical differences were observed between genotype, allele and haplotype frequencies for the tested loci in either the ACS group or the control group, even after adjustments were made for conventional risk factors by multivariate logistic regression. This suggests there is no association between the ALOX5AP rs10507391 and rs4769874 polymorphisms and ACS risk. Elevated serum LTB4 level was closely linked to ACS risk, and may be independent of traditional risk factors as a risk factor for ACS (P<0.001). There was no significant association between serum LTB4 levels and the two variants in either the ACS group or the control group.

Conclusions

Rs10507391, rs4769874 and its haplotypes in ALOX5AP are unrelated to ACS risk in the Chinese Han population of Changwu, but elevated serum LTB4 level is strongly associated with ACS risk. Serum LTB4 level is not subject to the influence of either the rs10507391, rs4769874 or the haplotype.  相似文献

Background

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of the most common forms of heart disease. Recent studies have shown that interleukin (IL)-8 plays a key role in the development of atherosclerotic plaques, but the relationship between the common genetic variants of IL-8 and ACS has not been extensively studied.

Methods

This case-control study in the Chinese Han population included 675 patients with ACS and 636 age- and sex-matched controls. We investigated IL-8 polymorphisms and their association with susceptibility to ACS. The investigation was replicated in the second study comprising 360 cases and 360 control subjects. The plasma concentration of IL-8 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Results

IL-8 −251 A/T polymorphism was associated with increased susceptibility to ACS (P = 0.004; odds ratio = 1.30; 95% confidence interval: 1.12–1.53). The second study yielded similar results. An increased IL-8 level was found in the plasma of acute myocardial infarction patients, suggesting that IL-8 −251 A/T may affect the expression of IL-8.

Conclusion

IL-8 −251 A/T polymorphism is associated with ACS risk in the Chinese Han population and the A allele of IL-8 −251 A/T may be an independent predictive factor for ACS.  相似文献

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a dominant cause of acquired heart disease in children due to frequent complicating coronary artery lesions (CALs). Genome-wide association study and linkage analysis have recently identified 6 susceptibility loci at genome-wide significance of P < 5.0 × 10?8 in subjects of Japanese, Taiwanese and European. In present study, we analysed the variants of 6 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genetic loci to investigate their potential effect on KD susceptibility and outcomes in Han Chinese population. As a result, the risk alleles of rs1801274 and rs2254546 were observed significant effect on KD with higher frequencies in 358 patients than those in 815 controls. The significant role of rs1801274, rs2857151 and rs2254546 in KD was found in the multi-variable logistic regression analysis of the SNPs. Two 2-locus and one 3-locus combinations of the SNPs showed significant effect on KD with stronger association with KD relative to comparable single SNP or 2-locus combinations. Significant susceptibility to CALs was found in KD patients with high-risk genotypes at both rs1801274 and rs2857151. The meta-analyses first revealed significant risk for CALs in KD patients carrying risk allele of rs11340705, and the association of rs28493229 with KD was not observed in the Han Chinese. In conclusion, the findings demonstrated that 5 of the 6 genetic loci influence the risk for KD and 3 of them may be involved in secondary CALs formation in Han Chinese. The additive effects of 3 multi-locus combinations on KD/CALs imply that some loci may participate together in certain unknown gene networks related to KD/CALs. Further function studies of the genetic loci are helpful for better understanding the pathophysiology of KD.  相似文献

CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cell-mediated immunosuppression is one of the crucial mechanisms that tumor cells use to evade the immune system. The forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) gene regulates regulatory T-cell development and function and may modulate the susceptibility to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Because a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) within the FoxP3 gene (rs3761548 in the promoter region) is associated with susceptibility to Graves' disease, this study detected rs3761548 in a hospital-based case–control study. A total of 192 NSCLC patients and 259 healthy subjects were recruited for the polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) analysis of FoxP3 SNP. The data showed that the A allele of rs3761548 significantly increased NSCLC risk (P = 0.000, OR = 2.32, 95%CI = 1.736–3.102). The AC genotype, AA genotype, and the combined A variant genotype (AA + AC) were also associated with a higher risk of NSCLC (OR [95%CI] = 2.147[1.419–3.247], 4.413[2.359–8.255], and 2.563[1.746–3.761], respectively). Moreover, a significantly higher frequency of AA + AC genotype was observed in patients with stage II NSCLC (OR, 2.053; 95%CI, 1.033–4.078). In conclusion, the data from the current study demonstrated for the first time the association of the FoxP3 SNP with a risk of developing NSCLC in the Chinese Han population.  相似文献

Vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor the kinase domain receptor play critical roles in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease. Periostin is an up-regulator of kinase domain receptor expression. The purpose of this study was to determine whether polymorphisms in periostin are associated with the risk of coronary artery disease. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP C-33G, SNP A-953T) within the promoter region were chosen for further analyses. A case–control study was carried out with patients of Han Chinese ethnicity, which consisted of 492 coronary artery disease cases and 498 controls. Genotyping was performed by means of PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) and the plasma level of periostin was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In our study, the TT genotype of SNP-A953T was present in the general Chinese population (3.5%), but not in the Han Chinese from Beijing Project (HAPMAP CHB). Plasma periostin concentrations were elevated significantly in patients with coronary artery disease (7.96 ± 8.33 nmol/l) compared with those in healthy volunteers (3.93 ± 1.71 nmol/l) (P = 0.005). There was a significant correlation between the 953T genotype and the plasma level of periostin (r 2 = −0.490, P = 0.039). The prevalence of the TT genotype in patients was associated with a slightly lower risk of coronary artery disease (OR = 0.443, 95% CI = 0.200–0.982), but was not significant after correction (OR = 0.427, 95% CI = 0.146–1.250). The periostin-33G allele frequency was not significantly different in cases versus controls. Our data suggest that plasma periostin level may serve as a biomarker for the risk of coronary artery disease, but the periostin polymorphisms SNPC-33G and SNPA-953T were not significantly associated with the risk of coronary artery disease in this Chinese population. Although a major effect of the SNPs in the periostin genes on coronary artery disease susceptibility was excluded, the effect of the A-953T SNP on susceptibility and protein expression needs further investigation.  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

Background

The complications of atherosclerosis such as coronary and cerebrovascular disease, are the most prevalent causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1883832 (-1C/T) in CD40 gene has been recently suggested to contribute to the susceptibility to atherosclerosis in Chinese population; however, previous genetic association studies yielded inconsistent results.

Methods

A meta-analysis of eligible studies reporting the association between rs1883832 and atherosclerosis in Chinese population was carried out.

Results

Pooling 7 eligible case-control studies involving 2129 patients and 1895 controls demonstrated a significant association between rs1883832 and atherosclerosis under dominant model [odds ratio (OR) = 1.631, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.176, 2.260] in Chinese population with evident heterogeneity. Meta-regression analysis indicated that the heterogeneity could be completely explained by disease category. In subgroup analysis, rs1883832 conferred ORs of 2.866 (C/C versus T/T, 95%CI [2.203, 3.729]) and 1.680 (C/T versus T/T, 95%CI [1.352, 2.086]) for coronary artery disease (CAD) under co-dominant model without heterogeneity. Similar results were obtained for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) (C/C versus T/T, 3.674, 95%CI [2.638, 5.116]; C/T versus T/T, 1.981, 95%CI [1.483, 2.646]). The other genetic models including dominant, recessive and additive models, yielded consistent results without heterogeneity for CAD and ACS, respectively. However, a protective role was found for C allele in ischemic stroke (IS) under recessive model (0.582, 95%CI [0.393, 0.864]) and additive model (0.785, 95%CI [0.679, 0.909]) with reduced heterogeneity.

Conclusions

This meta-analysis provided evidence of association of rs1883832 C allele with an overall increased risk of atherosclerosis but distinct effect of C allele on CAD (including ACS) and IS in Chinese population, respectively.  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

Background High levels of circulating heat shock protein 60 (Hsp60) and antibody to human Hsp60 have been associated with greater risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) in several studies, but associations between polymorphisms of the hsp60 gene and CHD risk have not been investigated. Methods By resequencing DNA from 30 unrelated Han Chinese and using HapMap Phase I Chinese data of hsp60 gene, we selected four tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) named rs2340690, rs788016, rs2305560, and rs2565163, and determined their frequencies in 1,003 Chinese CHD patients and 1,003 age- and sex-frequency-matched controls. Furthermore, we used PHASE 2.0 software to reconstruct haplotypes and logistic regression to control for potential confounders in multivariate analyses. Results We found 13 SNPs in hsp60 gene (including four novel SNPs) in Han Chinese subjects. Our results showed no significant differences in four selected SNPs in patients with CHD and controls after adjusting for other conventional risk factors and stratifying by age, sex, smoking status, past history of hypertension and DM; however, our results showed that subjects with the GCTC haplotype had about twofold higher risk of CHD than those with the GTTC haplotype (OR = 1.91, 95%CI: 1.26–2.89, P = 0.002). Conclusions Our results suggest that the GCTC haplotype in the hsp60 gene is significantly associated with higher CHD risk in a Chinese population. The first two authors contributed equally to this paper.  相似文献

The purpose of the study was to explore the genetic effects of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP2) polymorphisms on the susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in Chinese Han population. The case-control study included 120 AS cases and 110 healthy controls. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test was performed in control group. BMP2 rs235768 and rs3178250 polymorphisms were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing. Additionally, the χ2 test was used to estimate association strength between BMP2 genetic polymorphisms and AS susceptibility, and the results were assessed via odds ratio (OR) with the corresponding 95% confidence interval (95%CI). Results adjustment was performed using logistic regression analysis. AA, AT, TT genotype and A, T allele frequencies of BMP2 rs235768 polymorphism presented no significant differences between case and control groups (P > .05 for all). TC genotype of rs3178250 polymorphism showed significantly higher in case group than that in control group (P = .048). After adjusting, TC genotype was a risk factor for AS (OR = 2.095; 95%CI = 1.086-4.038; P = .027). BMP2 rs3178250 polymorphism may increase individual susceptibility to AS in Chinese Han population.  相似文献

The purpose of our study was to evaluate the correlation between the β-fibrinogen gene −148C/T and −455G/A polymorphisms and susceptibility to coronary artery disease in the Chinese population using a meta-analytic approach. Eligible studies about this correlation were identified by searching the PubMed, EMBASE, and CNKI databases. Of the 13 identified, 7 (with 1488 cases and 1234 controls) involved the −148C/T polymorphism and 9 (with 1023 cases and 1081 controls) involved the −455G/A polymorphism. No publication bias was detectable and heterogeneity testing found significant differences between the ORs for both groups of studies. The combined OR for the 7 studies on susceptibility to coronary artery disease in −148T allele carriers compared to the −148C/C wild-type homozygotes was 1.31 (95%CI: 0.94–1.84, P=0.11). The combined OR for the 9 studies on susceptibility to coronary artery disease in −455A allele carriers compared to the −455G/G wild-type homozygotes was 1.75 (95%CI: 1.24–2.46, P=0.001). Our results suggest the absence of an association between the β-fibrinogen gene −148C/T polymorphism and susceptibility to coronary artery disease and the possibility that −455G/A polymorphism (in particular, allele A) increases susceptibility to this disease in the Chinese population.  相似文献
