Purpose The aim of this study was to determine the significance of three most common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ABCB1 gene in the development of colorectal cancer and to estimate the influence of these SNPs to surviving patients' treatment
combination adjuvant therapy 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin. Haplotype structure of ABCB1 was analysed, and degree of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between SNPs of ABCB1 was estimated.
Materials and methods Tumour specimens of 95 patients with colorectal cancer and blood samples of 95 healthy cases were studied. Genotyping of ABCB1 gene was performed by automated sequencing or polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method.
Comparison of frequencies of alleles/genotypes/haplotypes between the studied group (colorectal cancer samples) and the control
group (blood samples) were analysed. These results were correlated with the surviving patients after treatment of adjuvant
chemotherapy.
Results Significant differences in ABCB1
1236C>T (p = 0.00043) and ABCB1
2677G>T/A (p = 0.04) genotype distribution and T1236 allele distribution (CT1236 or TT1236 vs CC1236; p = 0.0499, OR = 0.55, Fi–Yule coefficient = 0.14) were found. A strong LD between ABCB1
1236C>T and ABCB1
2677G>T/A SNPs (D′ = 0.621, r
2 = 0.318) was detected. All SNPs were located in one haplotype block. There were significant differences in haplotype distributions
between colorectal cancer patients and healthy population (p = 0.03). Significant differences in survival probability of colorectal cancer patients' treatment chemotherapy according
to allele of ABCB1
3435C>T was observed. Survival probability of patients with wild-type C3435 allele were higher than among patients without this allele (p = 0.04572).
Conclusions These results suggested that three studied SNPs of ABCB1 were located in one haplotype block. Differences in ABCB1
1236C>T and ABCB1
2677G>T/A genotypes and T1236 allele distribution between investigated populations indicate significant impact of these SNPs on risk of development of
colorectal cancer. Polymorphism ABCB1
3435C>T may be a prediction marker of cancer chemotherapy effectiveness. Differences in haplotype distributions between colorectal
cancer patients and healthy population suggested that other potential SNPs, especially in regulatory region of ABCB1 gene, may influence P-glycoprotein expression and function. 相似文献

Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is a type I interferon (IFN) signaling pathway gene and was previously reported to be a risk factor for systemic lupus erythematosus
(SLE) in Caucasian populations. In order to test for its genetic association with SLE in a Japanese population, TYK2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs2304256, rs12720270 and rs280519, were genotyped. A case–control association study
was performed in a total of 411 Japanese SLE patients and 467 healthy controls. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) among TYK2 SNPs was examined. According to the data from 94 healthy controls, non-synonymous rs2304256 resulting in Val → Phe substitution
was revealed to be in a LD with rs12720270 and rs280519. Therefore, we further genotyped rs2304256 as a tag SNP in the full
sample sets. As a result, no differences in genotype distribution and allelic frequencies of rs2304256 were found between
SLE patients and healthy controls. In conclusion, TYK2 is not a genetic risk factor for SLE in a Japanese population. Our result suggests that there is an ethnic difference in
the susceptibility genes for SLE. 相似文献

AIM:To evaluate the association between the geneticpolymorphisms and haplotypes of the ITGA1 gene and the risk of gastric cancer.METHODS:The study subjects were 477 age-and sex-matched case-control pairs.Genotyping was performed for 15 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)in ITGA1.The associations between gastric cancer and these SNPs and haplotypes were analyzed with multivariate conditional logistic regression models.Multiple testing corrections were carried out following methodology for controlling the false discovery rate.Gene-based association tests were performed using the versatile gene-based association study(VEGAS)method.RESULTS:In the codominant model,the ORs for SNPs rs2432143(1.517;95%CI:1.144-2.011)and rs2447867(1.258;95%CI:1.051-1.505)were statistically significant.In the dominant model,polymorphisms of rs1862610 and rs2447867 were found to be significant risk factors,with ORs of 1.337(95%CI:1.029-1.737)and 1.412(95%CI:1.061-1.881),respectively.In the recessive model,only the rs2432143 polymorphism was significant(OR=1.559,95%CI:1.150-2.114).The C-C type of ITGA1 haplotype block 2 was a significant protective factor against gastric cancer in the both codominant model(OR=0.602,95%CI:0.212-0.709,P=0.021)and the dominant model(OR=0.653,95%CI:0.483-0.884).The ITGA1 gene showed a significant gene-based association with gastric cancer in the VEGAS test.In the dominant model,the A-T type of ITGA1 haplotype block 2 was a significant risk factor(OR=1.341,95%CI:1.034-1.741).SNP rs2447867 might be related to the severity of gastric epithelial injury due to inflammation and,thus,to the risk of developing gastric cancer.CONCLUSION:ITGA1 gene SNPs rs1862610,rs2432143,and rs2447867 and the ITGA1 haplotype block that includes SNPs rs1862610 and rs2432143 were significantly associated with gastric cancer. 相似文献

Objectives Polymorphisms in the vitamin K epoxide–reductase-complex-1 (VKORC1) and the cytochrome-P450-isozyme (CYP2C9) genes account for therapeutic responses to vitamin K antagonists (VKA). This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of
VKORC1 and CYP2C9 polymorphisms among patients under phenprocoumon and its influence on the VKA dosage. Methods Patients under phenprocoumon were screened for the polymorphisms −1639G > A and 3730G > A in the VKORC1 gene and 430C > T and 1075A > C in the CYP2C9 gene by means of a StripAssay. Baseline clinical and laboratory parameters were registered. Results Among 53 patients (28 females, mean age 72.5 years), VKORC1 polymorphisms were found in 34 [−1639G > A: homozygote (n = 11), heterozygote (n = 23)] and 28 [3730G > A: homozygote (n = 7), heterozygote (n = 21)] patients. Thirteen patients were compound heterozygote. CYP2C9 polymorphisms were found in 12 [430G > T: homozygote (n = 1), heterozygote (n = 11)] and 7 [1075A > C: homozygote (n = 0), heterozygote (n = 7)] patients. Seventeen patients had at least one VKORC1 and one CYP2C9 polymorphism. Mean phenprocoumon dosage per week to achieve therapeutic anticoagulation was lower (higher) in patients with
than without the VKORC1 polymorphism −1639G > A (3730G > A) or the CYP2C9 polymorphisms. Despite the presence of VKORC1 or CYP2C9 polymorphisms, mean International Normalized Ratio was not significantly different between patients with and without polymorphisms.
Conclusions Though VKORC1 and CYP2C9 polymorphisms influence the phenprocoumon dosage necessary to achieve therapeutic anticoagulation, anticoagulation is therapeutic
if carefully monitored. 相似文献

CTLA-4 plays a key role in T cells regulation. We analysed the CTLA-4 +49A/G and −318C/T polymorphisms in 178 cases of type 1 diabetes and their parents (534 individuals) from Santiago, Chile. A significant overall association with T1D (p = 0.028) was observed, possibly due to an overtransmission of the G–T haplotype. 相似文献

Purpose
Gallbladder cancer (GBC), the most common gastrointestinal and biliary tract malignancy, often coincides with gallstone disease (GSD). The genetic variants of adrenergic receptor (ADR) have been previously reported to be associated with hypomotility disorder of cardiovascular system and GSD. Since GSD may function as GBC precursor, the present study aimed to investigate the association of common functional genetic variants of ADRA2A C-1291G, ADRβ3 T190C or Trp64Arg, and ADRβ1 C1165G or Arg389Gly with GBC and GSD susceptibility.Methods
The present study included a total of 400 histologically confirmed GBC, 230 GSD, and 268 healthy controls. The ADRA2A C-1291G, ADRβ3 T190C, and ADRβ1 C1165G polymorphisms were determined by PCR–RFLP. Statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS version 16.Results
ADRβ3 T190C polymorphism was significantly associated with increased risk of GBC (CT: Pcorr = 0.015, OR 2.87; CC: Pcorr = 0.038, OR 10.33; C allele: Pcorr = 0.014, OR 2.7; CT + CC: Pcorr = 0.017, OR 3.05). These associations existed even after gallstone and gender stratification. Similarly, ADRβ3 T190C polymorphism was also associated with GSD risk, though limited only to female GSD patients. In contrary, ADRA2A C-1291G conferred a marginally increased risk only in GSD patients. ADRβ1 C1165G polymorphism was not associated with GBC and GSD susceptibility when compared to controls.Conclusion
ADRβ3 T190C polymorphism is significantly associated with GBC and GSD susceptibility. The ADRβ3 T190C may be involved in the pathophysiology of GBC by both gallstone-dependent pathway and by some other independent mechanisms. 相似文献9.
Aims/hypothesis The gene encoding solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter, member 10 (SLC2A10, previously known as glucose transporter 10 [GLUT10]) is a promising candidate gene for type 2 diabetes since it is highly expressed in liver and pancreas and is located on human chromosome region 20q12–q13.1, a region previously shown to harbour type 2 diabetes susceptibility genes. We investigated whether the SLC2A10 gene could be a type 2 diabetes susceptibility gene in the Taiwanese population.Subjects and methods Sequencing of SLC2A10 gene from 48 diabetic subjects detected short tandem repeat polymorphisms in the promoter region, but did not detect any other sequence variants or new single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) other than those already in the SNPper database () (30 June 2005).Results Using these genetic polymorphisms, we divided the SLC2A10 gene into four distinct linkage disequilibrium blocks and performed a case-control association study in a group of type 2 diabetes subjects (n=375) and normoglycaemic individuals (n=377). The HapD (A-G-T-C) haplotype in block 3, a rare haplotype, which consisted of four SNPs (rs3092412, rs2235491, rs2425904 and rs1059217), was modestly associated with type 2 diabetes with a haplotype score of −2.95567 (p=0.012 with the haplotype-specific test).Conclusions/interpretation Our results suggest that SLC2A10 genetic variations do not appear to be major determinants for type 2 diabetes susceptibility in the Taiwanese population.W.

Acquired aplastic anemia (AA) is a rare disease with a complex pathogenesis. In most cases, T cell-mediated immune destruction
of hematopoietic cells results in peripheral blood pancytopenia and bone marrow hypoplasia. A subset of the heterodimeric
interleukin-23 receptor gene (IL-23R) is significantly associated with autoimmune-mediated diseases. To examine whether IL-23R single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) might contribute to AA, we selected three IL-23R SNPs with amino acid changes (rs11209026: p.Arg381Gln; rs41313262: p.Val362Ile; and rs11465797: p.Thr175Asn) and compared
their frequencies in 279 AA patients and 184 ethnically matched healthy controls. The three SNP prevalences were similar between
the AA patients and controls. The Arg381Gln variant, which has a strong protective effect against inflammatory bowel disease,
showed no association with AA. Furthermore, IL-23 levels in sera were measured in the AA patients and in controls, and there
were no significant differences among them. Our results indicate that these three IL-23R SNPs and serum IL-23 level have no apparent impact on susceptibility to AA. 相似文献

Aims/hypothesis In order to identify type 2 diabetes disease susceptibility gene(s) in a Japanese population, we applied a region-wide case–control
association test to the 20.4 Mb region between D3S1293 and D3S2319 on chromosome 3p24.3-22.1, supported by linkage to type 2 diabetes and its related traits in Japanese and multiple populations.
Materials and methods We performed a two-stage association test using 1,762 Japanese persons with 485 gene-centric, evenly spaced, common single
nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers with minor allele frequency >0.1. For mouse studies, total RNA was extracted from various
organs of BKS.Cg-+Lepr

and control mice, and from MIN6, NIH3T3 and C2C12 cell lines.
Results We detected a landmark SNP375 (A/G) (rs2051211, p = 0.000046, odds ratio = 1.33, 95% CI 1.16–1.53) in intron 5 of the endonuclease G-like 1 (ENDOGL1) gene. Systematic dense SNPs approach identified a susceptibility linkage disequilibrium (LD) block of 116.5 kb by |D′|,
an LD units map and a critical region of 2.1 kb by r
2 in ENDOGL1. A haplotype-based association test showed that an at-risk haplotype is associated with disease status (p = 0.00001). The expression of ENDOGL1 was rather ubiquitous with relatively abundant expression in the brain and also in a pancreatic islet beta cell line. Mouse
Endogl1 expression increased in pancreatic islets of hyperglycaemic BKS.Cg-+Lepr

mice compared with that in control mice.
Conclusions/interpretation Based on the population genetics, fine mapping of LD block and haplotype analysis, we conclude that ENDOGL1 is a candidate disease-susceptibility gene for type 2 diabetes in a Japanese population. Further analysis in a larger sample
size is required to substantiate this conclusion.

BACKGROUND: Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a cardiovascular disorder characterized by prolonged QTc time, syncope, or sudden death caused by torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation. We investigated the clinical and electrophysiologic phenotype of individual mutations and the compound mutations in a family in which different genotypes could be found. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of genotype-based diagnostic assessment in LQTS. METHODS: We used cascade screening and functional analyses to investigate the phenotype in a family with LQTS. The contributions of the compound mutations in the KCNQ1 and KCNH2 genes (KCNQ1 R591H, KCNH2 R328C) were analyzed by heterologous expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes using two-electrode voltage clamp and by confocal imaging. RESULTS: KCNH2 R328C did not show any functional phenotype whereas KCNQ1 R591H resulted in severe reduction of current. Neither wild-type nor mutant channels affected each other functionally in coexpression experiments. Therefore, a direct interaction between KCNQ1 and KCNH2 was ruled out under these conditions. CONCLUSION: Assessment of novel mutational findings in LQTS should include accurate genetic and functional analysis. Notably, appropriate studies are needed if two or more mutations in different genes are present in one proband. Our findings prompt reconsideration of the impact of compound mutations in LQTS families and reinforce the need for thorough functional evaluation of novel ion channel mutations before assignment of pathogenic status. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: There is growing evidence that gallstone formation may be genetically determined. It was recently presented that a common polymorphism in the LRPAP1 gene might be associated with gallstone disease. AIM: Since reproducibility of data is important in genetic association studies, a case control study was designed to find out whether LRPAP1 gene polymorphism is associated with gallstone disease in a Polish population. SUBJECTS: Two hundred eighty-nine Polish Caucasian gallstone disease patients and 251 healthy controls participated in the study. METHODS: A 37-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism in intron 5 of LRPAP1 (rs11267919) was determined by means of polymerase chain reaction assay. RESULTS: The frequencies and distribution of the insertion/deletion alleles did not differ significantly between gallstone disease patients and controls. No significant gender-related differences in allele frequencies or distributions were noted. CONCLUSION: The LRPAP1 insertion/deletion polymorphism is not associated with gallstone disease in a Polish population. 相似文献

miRNAs are endogenous 19-to 25-nt noncoding RNAs that can negatively regulate gene expression by directly cleaving target mRNA or by inhibiting its translation.Recent studies have revealed that miRNA plays a significant role in gastric cancer development either as a tumor suppressor gene or oncogene.miRNA-singlenucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs),as a novel class of functional SNPs/polymorphisms,have been identified as candidate biomarkers for gastric cancer susceptibility.On the basis of recent data,the present review summarizes current knowledge of the functional effects of miRNA-SNPs and their importance as candidate gastric cancer biomarkers.Additionally,this review also includes a meta-analysis of the most frequently studied miRNA-SNPs in gastric cancer. 相似文献

Purpose This project explored the influence of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and microsatellite instability (MSI) of locus D8S277 to
PINX1 expression of gastric cancer in Chinese people.
Methods LOH and MSI of locus D8S277 in 90 paraffin-embedded gastric carcinoma specimens were detected by polymerase chain reaction-single
strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP). Envision immunohistochemistry was used to assess the expression of PINX1.
Results The frequency of LOH was higher in cases with lymph node metastasis than those without (18.57 vs. 0.00%, P < 0.01), and was higher in the specimens that were at TNM stage III + IV than those at stage I + II (21.43 vs. 2.94%, P < 0.01). In terms of the frequency of MSI, it was lower in cases with lymph node metastasis than those without (10.00 vs.
30.00%,P < 0.05). The positive rate of PINX1 protein was higher in samples without lymph node metastasis than those with lymph node
metastasis (80.00 vs. 50.00%, P < 0.01); and was higher in the cases at TNM stage I + II than those at stage III + IV; and was lower in the cases between
40 and 60 years old than those above 60 years old (43.75 vs. 65.52%, P < 0.05).
Conclusion LOH and MSI of PINX1 may play major role in tumor development and regulate it through different pathways. Because LOH plays a major role in negative
expression of PINX1, it can be regarded as a sign of gastric cancer development and MSI may affect the prognosis and tumor
turnover. 相似文献

Trypanosoma vivax is a widespread hemoparasite in tropical areas and is pathogenic to ruminant domestic livestock as well as wild ruminants. The accurate identification of parasites in both hosts and vectors is crucial for epidemiological studies and disease control programs. We describe here the development of molecular markers specific for T. vivax identification. These markers were used to identify mouthpart infections in field-collected tsetse flies from Cameroon. The markers target the genomic sequence of a species-specific antigen from the bloodstream stages. No cross amplification with other trypanosome species was observed, which makes the markers a reliable tool to detect T. vivax infections, both in hosts and vectors. The PCR-amplified sequence contains a (CA)n microsatellite repeat for which 11 different alleles were identified. This microsatellite, which showed high polymorphism, provides a suitable marker for population genetic studies. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The incidence of gallbladder cancer (GBC) is usually paralleled by the prevalence of gallstone disease, and genes of cholesterol metabolism have been implicated in gallstone disease. The XbaI and insertion/deletion (ins/del) polymorphism of Apolipoprotein B (APOB) appears to influence cholesterol homoeostasis and possibly risk for gallstone disease. We examined the effect of these polymorphisms individually as well as their haplotypes on GBC and gallstone patients in North Indian population. METHODS: The study comprises 123 consecutive cases of proven GBC, 172 cases of gallstone and 232 healthy subjects of similar age and sex. The genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leucocytes and genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS: In a case-control study, APOB XbaI and ins/del polymorphisms were not significantly associated with risk of GBC. Using the expectation maximization algorithm, four haplotypes were obtained, and haplotype X(+),D was found to be significantly higher in GBC patients without stone in comparison with healthy subjects [odds ratio (OR) 2.9, 95% confidence interval 1.2-6.6 P=0.012]. CONCLUSIONS: The X(+),D haplotype of APOB is associated with increased risk for development of GBC and the risk is not modified in the presence of gallstones. 相似文献

Background The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an endothelial cell-specific mitogen involved in the process of angiogenesis,
a crucial phase in tumor growth and metastasis. We carried out a case–control study to evaluate whether polymorphisms of VEGF
gene modulate the risk of developing colorectal cancer disease (CCD).
Materials and methods We evaluated VEGF −2578A/C, −460T/C, and +405C/G genotypes obtained from a series of 302 CCD patients and 115 controls from
the Italian population using polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism assay.
Results Strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) was detected between −2578A/C and −460T/C (D′ = 0.97; CI = 0.93–1) and between −2578A/C and +405C/G (D′ = 0.97; CI = 0.98–1) in the case group. Complete LD was detected between −2578A/C and +405C/G and between −460T/C and +405C/G
(D′ = 1; CI = 0.84–1; CI = 0.82–1, respectively) in the control group. A reduced risk for the disease was associated with −2578C/A
and −2578C/C (odds ratio (OR) = 0.34, CI = 0.162–0.676 and OR = 0.38, CI = 0.181–0.775, respectively). A direct association
was found for carriers of the VEGF −460C/C polymorphism (OR = 3.55; CI = 1.659–8.469). We identified a protective haplotype
−2578A, −460T, and +405G (OR = 0.04; CI = 0.009–0.19) and two different high-risk haplotypes −2578A, −460C, and +405G (OR = 1.90;
CI = 1.31–2.27) and −2578C, −460C, and +405C (OR = 9.62; CI = 1.3–70.87).
Conclusions The present study suggests that the VEGF gene polymorphisms may play a role in the development of colorectal cancer.
