Centrosome defects can result in aneuploidy and genomic instability, and have important implications for breast cancer development. The Aurora-A and BRCA1 proteins interact and both are strongly involved in centrosome regulation. Genetic variants in these two genes may have an effect on breast cancer development. Here, we report a comprehensive single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and haplotype-tagging association study on these two genes in 1334 breast cancer cases and 1568 unaffected controls among the Chinese Han population. Apart from a missense SNP, rs2273535 (Phe31Ile), and a probable risk SNP, rs2064863, six htSNPs were analysed in three high-LD blocks of AURKA spanning from 10 kb upstream to 2 kb downstream of AURKA. For BRCA1, six htSNPs were analysed in a large high-LD region covering 98 kb (10 kb was extended to each end of BRCA1). The results showed that four SNPs in AURKA (data in recessive model, rs2273535: OR = 2.19, 95% CI = 1.03-4.66, p = 0.0422; rs2298016: OR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.18-0.82, p = 0.0141; rs6024836: OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 1.18-2.00, p = 0.0014; rs10485805: OR = 0.68, 95% CI = 0.47-0.98, p = 0.0380) and one SNP in BRCA1 (rs3737559, dominant model OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.11-1.64, p = 0.0030) were associated with breast cancer susceptibility. After correction for multiple comparisons (FDR = 0.05), only rs6024836 and rs3737559 remained significant. Two haplotypes (CC of block 2, OR = 20.74, 95% CI = 4.35-98.88, p = 0.0001; GG of block 3, OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.12-1.56, p = 0.0010) and one diplotype (AG-GG of block 3, OR = 1.63, 95% CI = 1.18-2.26, p = 0.0031) within AURKA showed strong associations with breast cancer risk. One haplotype of BRCA1 (CTGTTG, OR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.06-1.59, p = 0.0118) was also associated with breast cancer risk. However, women harbouring both at-risk genotypes of Aurora-A and BRCA1 were at a slightly increased risk compared with those harbouring either at-risk variant alone. Common genetic variants in the AURKA and BRCA1 genes may contribute to breast cancer development. 相似文献

Previous Icelandic studies reported that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) region and the 5-lipoxygenase activating protein ALOX5AP were associated with ischaemic stroke, whereas other studies reported ambiguous findings. We examined 932 ischaemic stroke patients from a Swedish population-based stroke register, and 396 control subjects. We assessed possible associations between ischaemic stroke and nine preselected SNPs in the chromosome regions of the PDE4D gene, including rs12188950 (SNP45) and rs3887175 (SNP39); the ALOX5AP gene, including rs17222814 (SG13S25) and the promoter region of the MHC class II transactivator, MHC2TA. The T allele of SNP45 showed negative association with ischaemic stroke (odds ratio, OR=0.72; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.58-0.91; P=0.0055). Among hypertensive subjects, this influence of the T allele of SNP45, and the T allele of SNP39, were more pronounced (with OR=0.52; 95% CI: 0.37-0.73; P=0.0001 and OR=0.57; 95% CI: 0.41-0.79; P=0.0007, respectively). These SNPs also interacted with hypertension with a relative excess risk due to interaction of -1.66 (P=0.0002) for SNP45 and -1.65 (P=0.0005) for SNP39. The P-values remained significant after correction for multiple testing. Among nonhypertensives, the A allele of SG13S25 indicated increased stroke risk (OR=1.82; 95% CI: 1.21-2.74; P=0.0039; not significant after Bonferroni correction). SNP45 was associated with ischaemic stroke even when controlling for hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and smoking. Our meta-analysis of 13 studies (including ours) showed no overall influence of SNP45 on ischaemic stroke. However, the 13 studies may differ because of nonrandom causes, as suggested by the heterogeneity test (P=0.042). This might support previously undetected mechanisms causing fluctuating ischaemic stroke risk.European Journal of Human Genetics (2008) 16, 1117-1125; doi:10.1038/ejhg.2008.62; published online 9 April 2008. 相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most frequent histological form of primary bone cancer in adolescence. TP53 is a tumor suppressor gene which is essential for regulating cell division and preventing tumor formation. The purpose of this study is to examine whether genetic mutations in the TP53 gene are associated with OS risk and survival in a Chinese population. Five polymorphisms in the TP53 gene were selected in a case-control study, including 210 OS patients and 420 cancer-free controls. We found that subjects carrying rs12951053 CC genotype and rs1042522 GG genotype were significantly associated with risk of OS [odds ratio (OR) = 1.68, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.05-2.68; OR = 1.89, 95% CI: 1.16-3.07] compared with subjects carrying the common genotypes. Results of haplotype analysis also showed that A-G-G-A-C haplotype (rs12951053, rs1042522, rs8064946, rs9895829 and rs12602273) conferred significant decreased risk of OS (OR = 0.37, 95% CI: 0.19-0.72) compared with A-C-G-A-C haplotype. Besides, rs1042522 was an independent prognostic factor for OS with hazard radio (HR) = 1.94 (95% CI: 1.03-3.65) in GG genotype than in CC genotype. Our data suggest that genetic mutations in the TP53 gene are associated with risk and survival of OS in Chinese population. 相似文献

We conducted a genome-wide association study on cutaneous basal cell carcinoma (BCC) among 2045 cases and 6013 controls of European ancestry, with follow-up replication in 1426 cases and 4845 controls. A non-synonymous SNP in the MC1R gene (rs1805007 encoding Arg151Cys substitution), a previously well-documented pigmentation gene, showed the strongest association with BCC risk in the discovery set (rs1805007[T]: OR (95% CI) for combined discovery set and replication set [1.55 (1.45-1.66); P= 4.3 × 10(-17)]. We identified that an SNP rs12210050 at 6p25 near the EXOC2 gene was associated with an increased risk of BCC [rs12210050[T]: combined OR (95% CI), 1.24 (1.17-1.31); P= 9.9 × 10(-10)]. In the locus on 13q32 near the UBAC2 gene encoding ubiquitin-associated domain-containing protein 2, we also identified a variant conferring susceptibility to BCC [rs7335046 [G]; combined OR (95% CI), 1.26 (1.18-1.34); P= 2.9 × 10(-8)]. We further evaluated the associations of these two novel SNPs (rs12210050 and rs7335046) with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) risk as well as melanoma risk. We found that both variants, rs12210050[T] [OR (95% CI), 1.35 (1.16-1.57); P= 7.6 × 10(-5)] and rs7335046 [G] [OR (95% CI), 1.21 (1.02-1.44); P= 0.03], were associated with an increased risk of SCC. These two variants were not associated with melanoma risk. We conclude that 6p25 and 13q32 are novel loci conferring susceptibility to non-melanoma skin cancer. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to explore the role of variants of the gene encoding arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP) as possible susceptibility factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with or without angiographically proven CAD. A total of 1431 patients with or without angiographically documented CAD were examined simultaneously for seven ALOX5AP single-nucleotide polymorphisms, allowing reconstruction of the at-risk haplotypes (HapA and HapB) previously identified in the Icelandic and British populations. Using a haplotype-based approach, HapA was not associated with either CAD or MI. On the other hand, HapB and another haplotype within the same region (that we named HapC) were significantly more represented in CAD versus CAD-free patients, and these associations remained significant after adjustment for traditional cardiovascular risk factors by logistic regression (HapB: odds ratio (OR) 1.67, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04-2.67; P=0.032; HapC: OR 2.41, 95% CI 1.09-5.32; P=0.030). No difference in haplotype distributions was observed between CAD subjects with or without a previously documented MI. Our angiography-based study suggests a possible modest role of ALOX5AP in the development of the atheroma rather than in its late thrombotic complications such as MI. 相似文献

Studies suggest associations between the miR-146a single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. However, the results are inconsistent and inconclusive. Therefore, the aim of this study was to arrive at a conclusion about the association between the three functional miR-146a SNPs and autoimmune disease risk. Studies were identified through PubMed/MEDLINE searches for studies published up to January 2016 using as keywords rs2910164, rs57095329, rs2431697, and miR-146a polymorphisms. Thirty studies were included in the meta-analysis. The SNP rs2910164?G?>?C was found to be associated with increased risk of multiple sclerosis (CC?+?CG versus GG, OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.01–1.55), with decreased risks of psoriasis (C versus G, OR = 0.81, 95% CI: 0.69–0.96; CC versus GC?+?GG, OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.56–0.94), Behcet’s disease (CC versus GC?+?GG, OR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.50–0.73), asthma (C versus G, OR = 0.80, 95% CI: 0.69–0.93; CC versus GC?+?GG, OR = 0.65, 95% CI: 0.48–0.86), and uveitis (CC?+?CG versus GG, OR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.49–0.77). The SNP rs2431697 C?>?T was found to be associated with an increased risk of SLE (T versus C, OR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.15–1.38; TC?+?TT versus CC, OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.03–1.58; TT versus TC?+?CC, OR = 1.40, 95% CI: 1.21–1.62). The SNP rs57095329 A?>?G was found to be associated with an increased risk of SLE (G versus C, OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.17–1.35). The miR-146a SNPs rs2910164, rs57095329, rs2431697 are associated with susceptibility to certain autoimmune diseases. However, for other autoimmune diseases, they may be protective or insignificant. 相似文献

NKX2.3 is a promising candidate for susceptibility genes to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study was to perform a candidate gene analysis of NKX2.3 in Japanese IBD and to examine how the risk allele (haplotype) affects susceptibility to IBD using allelic expression ratios of NKX2.3 mRNA in the involved colonic mucosa. A total of 344 patients with Crohn's disease (CD), 253 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), and 243 healthy controls (HCs) were genotyped for 3 tag-single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs10883365, rs888208, and rs11596008) around NKX2.3. The allelic expression ratio of NKX2.3-mRNA was examined by TaqMan assay using rs888208 as an allelic (haplotypic) marker. Two SNPs (rs10883365 and rs888208) were significantly associated with UC (p = 7.79 × 10(-4), odds ratio [OR] = 1.54 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.20-1.99], p = 7.70 × 10(-3), OR = 1.41 [95% CI 1.10-1.81], respectively) and 1 SNP (rs10883365) was associated with CD (p = 0.0366, OR = 1.29 [95% CI 1.02-1.63]). Haplotype B formed by the 3 SNPs demonstrated a significant association with UC (p = 6.11 × 10(-4), OR = 1.56 [95% CI 1.21-2.00]). Subgroup analyses indicated that rs10883365 was significantly associated mainly with colonic CD (p = 1.99 × 10(-3), OR = 1.91 [95% CI 1.27-2.88], vs HCs). The allelic expression ratios of NKX2.3 mRNA transcribed from haplotype B (risk haplotype) to haplotype A (the nonrisk haplotype) in the involved mucosa from 10 IBD patients were significantly higher than the allelic ratio of respective genomic DNA (p = 0.00195). We confirmed the association of SNP rs10883365 located in the 5' flanking region of NKX2-3 with Japanese UC and colonic CD and determined the risk haplotype (haplotype B) for UC. The demonstrated allelic expression imbalance supports the idea that the risk haplotype of NKX2.3 confers susceptibility to UC through increasing expression of NKX2.3 mRNA in the colonic mucosa. 相似文献

Alzheimer's disease (AD) has a complex pattern of inheritance and many genes have recently been reported to contribute to the disease susceptibility. We selected 106 SNPs within 16 candidate genes and performed a multistage association study using 4 sample sets consisting of 731 AD patients and 738 control subjects to identify genetic factors for AD in Han Chinese. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the insulin degrading enzyme gene (IDE), rs3781239, showed a significant association with AD. The C allele increased the risk of AD 1.72-fold than the G allele (odds ratio [OR] = 1.72, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.17-2.53, p = 0.006) and CC carriers had a 4.89-fold higher risk for AD than that of the carriers with CG and GG genotypes (odds ratio = 4.89, 95% CI = 1.85-12.91, p = 0.001). Moreover, the CC genotype was significantly associated with earlier age at onset (p = 0.001, hazard ratio [HR] = 2.09, 95% CI = 1.38-3.18). Our data suggest that the polymorphism of IDE is associated with susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease in Han Chinese. 相似文献

Background: Histamine as an inflammatory mediator plays an important role in chronic allergic and asthmatic conditions. However, the role of genetic polymorphisms of the histamine receptor HRH4 (histamine receptor H4) gene in asthma susceptibility and endophenotypes has not been studied yet. Our aim was to investigate the possible association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the HRH4 gene and asthma or some endophenotypes of asthma. Methods: Twenty-one SNPs of the HRH4 gene were genotyped in 313 asthmatic patients and 360 controls using Sequenom? iPLEX? Gold Genotyping Technology. Results: Genotype distribution of three HRH4 SNPs, namely rs17187619 [p = 0.002; odds ratio, OR (95% confidence interval, CI) = 2.4 (4.1-1.4)], rs527790 [p = 0.0002; OR (95% CI) = 3.3 (6.1-1.8)] and rs487202 [p = 0.00007; OR (95% CI) = 3.5 (6.6-1.9)] differed significantly between patients with or without infection-induced asthma. Haplotypes, which included the rs4800573-rs527790 CC allele combination, were found to be associated with infection-induced asthma [p = 0.0009, OR (95% CI) = 0.5 (0.4-0.8)]. The rs487202-rs574913 CA haplotype was more frequent among patients with infection-induced asthma [p = 0.0006, OR (95% CI) = 1.9 (1.3-2.6)]. None of the SNPs contributed directly to the risk of asthma. Conclusions: Our results suggest that genetic variation in the HRH4 gene might influence the pathogenesis of infection-induced asthma. 相似文献

Aims: The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between single necleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) gene with osteosarcoma susceptibility in Chinese Han population. Methods: 90 patients with osteosarcoma and 100 healthy controls who were frequency-matched with the former by age and gender were enrolled for a case-control study. 5 SNPs of HER2, namely rs2952155, rs1810132, rs2952156, rs1136201 and rs1058808, were tested by Sequenom time of flight mass spectrometry technique. The linkage disequilibrium and haplotype were analyzed using haploview software. The risk intensity of osteosarcoma was expressed by odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) which was calculated by chi-squared text. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) was also evaluated by chi-squared text. Results: HER2 gene rs1136201 and rs1058808 polymorphisms were associated with the increased risk of osteosarcoma (P=0.04 and 0.02, respectively). Allele G in rs1136201 was 1.67 higher risk for osteosarcoma in cases than the control group (OR=1.67, 95% CI=1.11-2.51) and G allele of rs1058808 polymorphism also significantly increased osteosarcoma susceptibility (OR=2.06, 95% CI=1.27-3.22). The haplotype analysis showed that haplotype C-T-G-G might be a susceptible haplotype to osteosarcoma (OR=1.74, 95% CI=1.01-3.00). HWE test was eligible in controls (P>0.05). Conclusion: HER2 gene rs1136201 and rs1058808 polymorphisms and haplotype C-T-G-G may be related to osteosarcoma susceptibility in Chinese Han population, indicating that the interaction of gene polrmorphism plays an role in osteosarcoma risk. 相似文献

Purpose: Our study was carried out to explore the relationship of PIK3CA rs17849071 and rs17849079 polymorphisms with the susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Chinese Han population. Methods: 150 HCC patients and 152 healthy individuals were recruited in the case and control groups respectively. The genotypes of PIK3CA rs17849071 and rs17849079 polymorphisms were detected with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. The linkage disequilibrium and haplotypes were analyzed with Haploview software. Differences in frequencies of genotypes, alleles, and haplotypes between the case and control groups were checked with χ2 test. The controls were matched with the cases in age and gender. The relative risk of HCC was represented by odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI). Results: Significant difference in frequencies of GG genotype and G allele in PIK3CA rs17849071 polymorphism existed between the two groups (P=0.040; P=0.028), indicating that rs17849071 was closely related to the increased risk of HCC (OR=2.919, 95% CI=1.007-8.460; OR=1.642, 95% CI=1.051-2.564). Furthermore, TT genotype also significantly increased the susceptibility to HCC (OR=3.438, 95% CI=1.050-11.250) and so was T allele (OR=1.521, 95% CI=1.052-2.199). The haplotype analysisshowed that G-T haplotypes were higher in cases than that of controls (P=0.030), which suggested that G-T might be a susceptible haplotype to HCC. Conclusions: The PIK3CA rs17849071 and rs17849079 polymorphisms may increase the risk of HCC either independently or synergistically. 相似文献

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with an immunogenetic background. This study aimed to determine the association between three functional SNPs of BANK1 (rs10516487, rs17266594 and rs3733197) with psoriasis in Southern Han Chinese population by determining their frequency in 242 patients with psoriasis and 317 healthy individuals. The genotype frequencies of the detected polymorphisms were analysed in relation to the susceptibility of psoriasis. Our data show that there is no significant difference in genotype distribution for the three BANK1 SNPs between patients and healthy controls. The AA frequency of rs3733197 is significantly higher in patients with psoriasis onset before the age of 23 than in those with late disease onset (P = 0.0069). In addition, analysis on BANK1 haplotype also suggests a protective role for TGC and CAT haplotype from psoriasis (OR 0.55, 95% CI: 0.34-0.89; P = 0.0144; OR 0.62, 95% CI: 0.42-0.92; P = 0.0175), whereas CGT haplotype is associated with increased risk of the disease (OR 1.38, 95% CI: 1.05-1.81, P = 0.0203). Overall, our result indicates that polymorphism in BANK1 is associated with susceptibility to psoriasis in Southern Han Chinese. 相似文献

The 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5)-derived lipid mediators leukotrienes and lipoxins have regulatory functions in inflammation by modulating activities of immune cells and cytokine production. Recently, it was shown in ALOX5-/- mice that host control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is regulated by 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO). ALOX5 polymorphisms were genotyped in 1916 sputum-positive patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) from Ghana and in 2269 exposed, apparently healthy controls. Polymorphisms of a variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) of the ALOX5 promoter and of the exonic non-synonymous variant g.760G>A were analysed by fragment length determination and fluorescence resonance energy transfer, respectively, and DNA sequencing. Mycobacterial lineages of >1400 isolates were differentiated biochemically and genetically. Carriers of one variant (n repeats not equal 5) and one wild-type VNTR allele (n = 5) or of the exonic allele g.760A had a higher risk of TB [P(corrected) = 0.026, odds ratio (OR) 1.19 (95% CI 1.04-1.37) and P(corrected) = 0.026, OR 1.21 (95% CI 1.04-1.41), respectively]. The association of the exonic variant was stronger in infections caused by the mycobacterial lineage M. africanum West-African 2 [P(corrected) = 0.024, OR 1.70; (95% CI 1.2-2.6)]. Determination of haplotypes revealed the strongest associaton with TB for the 'non-5/760A' haplotype compared with the 'non-5/760G' haplotype (P = 0.003, OR 1.50). Our observation of an association of ALOX5 variants with susceptibility to TB contributes evidence of the importance of 5-LO products to the regulation of immune responses to M. tuberculosis. 相似文献

Objective: The present study aimed at assessing the relationship between Leukocyte-specific protein 1 gene (LSP1) polymorphisms (rs569550 and rs592373) and the pathogenesis of breast cancer (BC). Methods: 70 BC patients and 72 healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. Rs569550 and rs592373 polymorphisms were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated by the chi-squared test to assess the relationship between LSP1 polymorphisms and BC risk. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotypes were also analyzed by HaploView software. Results: Genotype distribution of the control was in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). The homozygous genotype TT and T allele of rs569550 could significantly increase the risk of BC (TT vs. GG: OR=3.17, 95% CI=1.23-8.91; T vs. G: OR=1.63, 95% CI=1.01-2.64). For rs592373, mutation homozygous genotype CC and C allele were significantly associated with BC susceptibility (CC vs. TT: OR=4.45, 95% CI=1.38-14.8; C vs. T: OR=1.70, 95% CI=1.03-2.81). LD and haplotypes analysis of rs569550 and rs592373 polymorphisms showed that T-C haplotype was a risk factor for BC (T-C vs. G-T: OR=1.74, 95% CI=1.04-2.92). Conclusion: LSP1 rs569550 and rs592373 polymorphisms are both risk factors for BC. 相似文献

Objective: To investigate whether haplotypes of rhodopsin (RHO) polymorphisms including rs7984, rs2855552, rs2855557 and rs2410 were associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) risk in Chinese Han population. Methods: Genotypes of rs7984, rs2855552, rs2855557 and rs2410 were detected with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 186 cases and 196 healthy controls. Then, the haplotypes were established with Haploview 4.2 software. And the effects of clinical charactersitics on the frequency of GTTG haplotype were also analyzed. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were utilized to assess the relationship of haplotypes and genotypes of RHO polymorphisms with susceptibility to AMD. Results: Genotype distribution of all polymorphisms in control group were all in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) (P>0.05). In the analysis, we found that mutant alleles of rs7984 and rs2855557 were both associated with increased risk of AMD. For genotype analysis, rs7984 AA and rs2855557AA, rs2410GG genotypes all could increase the risk for AMD (OR=1.905, 95% CI=1.143-3.174; OR=2.226, 95% CI=1.261-3.932; OR=2.073, 95% CI=1.105-3.888). However, rs2855552 showed no effects on the onset of AMD. Compared with GTTA, the haplotypes of GGTG, ATAA and GTTG were all related with AMD susceptibility. Further analysis suggested that age, hypertension and hyperlipidemia history play important roles in the frequency alteration of GTTG haplotype. Conclusion: RHO polymorphisms (rs7984, rs2855557 and rs2410) and haplotypes may confer remarkable susceptibility to AMD. Further investigation showed that gene and environmental factors may work together in the pathogenesis of AMD. 相似文献

The relationship between gene polymorphisms and the pathogenesis of cerebral palsy (CP) is uncovering recently. Here, we suggested that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of MLEC gene might take part in the pathogenesis of CP. We genotyped and analyzed 6 SNP positions of MLEC gene in 916 CP patients and 957 healthy people, which are from the Chinese Han population. The results indicated significant associations between the risk of CP and rs10431386 [allele: P‐value = .006, odds ratio (OR) = 1.587, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.198‐1.967] and rs7964786 [allele: P‐value = .005, OR = 1.956, 95% CI = 1.238‐2.519] SNP positions of MLEC gene. Further investigations revealed that C alleles of rs10431386 and rs7964786 inhibit the expression of MLEC in blood of CP patients and macrophage cell line. in vitro experiments revealed that MLEC promotes M1 to M2 macrophage polarization. The results of in vitro studies suggest that C alleles of rs10431386 and rs7964786 on MLEC promotes CP by inhibiting M1 to M2 macrophage polarization. Generally, this work suggested the contribution of MLEC gene polymorphisms to the pathogenesis of CP. 相似文献

A number of genome-wide linkage analyses have identified the 2q33.3-2q37.2 region as most likely to contain the genes that contribute to the susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It was hypothesized that the SERPINE2 gene, which is one of the genes located at the 2q33.3-2q37.2 region, may act as a low-penetrance susceptibility gene for COPD. To test this hypothesis, the association of four SERPINE2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs16865421A>G, rs7583463A>C, rs729631C>G, and rs6734100C>G) with the risk of COPD was investigated in a case-control study of 311 COPD patients and 386 controls. The SNP rs16865421 was associated with a significantly decreased risk of COPD in a dominant model for the polymorphic allele (adjusted odds ratio [OR]=0.66, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.45-0.97, P=0.03). In haplotype analysis, the GACC haplotype carrying the polymorphic allele at the rs16865421 was associated with a significantly decreased risk of COPD when compared to the AACC haplotype (adjusted OR=0.58, 95% CI=0.38-0.89, P=0.01), and this effect was evident in younger individuals (adjusted OR=0.30, 95% CI=0.14-0.64, P=0.002). This study suggests that the SERPINE2 gene contributes to the susceptibility to COPD. 相似文献

UDP‐glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) play an important role in the phase II metabolism of exogenous and endogenous compounds. As colorectal cancer (CRC) etiology is thought to involve the biotransformation of dietary factors, UGT polymorphisms may affect CRC risk by altering levels of exposure. Genotyping of over 1800 Caucasian subjects was completed to identify the role of genetic variation in nine UGT1A and five UGT2B genes on CRC risk. Unconditional logistic regression and haplotype analyses were conducted to identify associations with CRC risk and potential gene‐environment interactions. UGT1A haplotype analysis found that the T‐G haplotype in UGT1A10 exon 1 (block 2: rs17864678, rs10929251) decreased cancer risk for the colon [proximal (OR = 0.28, 95% CI = 0.11–0.69) and for the distal colon (OR = 0.32, 95% CI = 0.12–0.91)], and that the C‐T‐G haplotype in the 3′ region flanking the UGT1A shared exons (block 11: rs7578153, rs10203853, rs6728940) increased CRC risk in males (OR = 2.56, 95% CI = 1.10–5.95). A haplotype in UGT2B15 containing a functional variant (rs4148269, K523T) and an intronic SNP (rs6837575) was found to affect rectal cancer risk overall (OR = 2.57, 95% CI = 1.21–5.04) and in females (OR = 3.08, 95% CI = 1.08–8.74). An interaction was found between high NSAID use and the A‐G‐T haplotype (block 10: rs6717546, rs1500482, rs7586006) in the UGT1A shared exons that decreased CRC risk. This suggests that UGT genetic variation alters CRC risk differently by anatomical sub‐site and gender and that polymorphisms in the UGT1A shared exons may have a regulatory effect on gene expression that allows for the protective effect of NSAIDs on CRC risk. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Nax, an α‐subunit of the sodium channel encoded by the SCN7A gene, has been deemed to be a sensor of the concentration of sodium in the brain and may be involved in salt intake behavior. We inferred that Nax/SCN7A may participate in the regulation of blood pressure and the pathogenesis of essential hypertension (EH). The present case‐control study involving 615 hypertensives and 617 normotensives was performed to investigate the association between SCN7A polymorphisms and EH in the Northern Han Chinese population. The three common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs3791251, rs6738031, rs7565062) in the exons of SCN7A were genotyped with the TaqMan assay. Significant association between SNP rs7565062 and EH was found under the addictive and dominant genetic models (P = 0.024, OR = 1.283, 95%CI [1.033–1.592]; P = 0.013, OR = 1.203, 95%CI [1.040–1.392]; respectively). The three SNPs were in close pair‐wise linkage disequilibrium with each other and the haplotype analyses indicated that haplotype G–A–T was significantly associated with increased risk of EH (P = 0.023, OR = 1.290). In conclusion, our data showed that SNP rs7565062 of SCN7A was significantly associated with EH and the allele T of rs7565062 or the related haplotype G–A–T will be a genetic risk factor for EH in the Northern Han Chinese population. 相似文献
