It is well-known that microRNAs are able to regulate the expression of target mRNAs through complementary base-pairing to their 3′-untranslated regions (3′UTR) sequences. This study aimed to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms resided in the 3′UTR sequences in patients with chronic hepatitis B viruses (HBV) infection are associated with the development and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Seventeen single nucleotide polymorphisms in the 3′UTR sequence of 10 genes regulated or affected by hepatitis B virus X protein were found by bioinformatics methods. Two hundred fifteen patients with HBV-related HCC and 216 patients with chronic HBV infection were recruited. Through case-control study, only found that the von Hippel-Lindau gene rs1642742 (G>A) may be associated with the occurrence and metastasis of HCC. The ORs of the frequencies of rs1642742 A allele versus G allele were 1.424 (P = .038, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.019–1.989) between HBV-related HCC and chronic HBV infection group and were 2.004 (P = .037, 95%CI = 1.031–3.895) between tumor metastasis and non-metastasis group, respectively. Through multivariate regression analysis, we also found that rs1642742 AA genotype was an independent risk factor for tumor metastasis (odds ratio = 2.227, 95% CI = 1.043–4.752, P = .038) in HBV-related HCC group. Our study suggested that Von Hippel-Lindau rs1642742 contributed to susceptibility to developing HCC and correlated with tumor metastasis. 相似文献

Background: Nuclear receptors play an important role in bone metabolism. In bone cells, the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and the steroid and xenobiotic receptor (SXR) are activated by vitamin D and vitamin K2, respectively. VDR and SXR are the NR1I subfamily members of nuclear receptors. We speculated that the constitutive androstane receptor ( CAR ), the third member of the NR1I subfamily, also could be implicated in the regulation of bone metabolism. Therefore, we analyzed expression of CAR mRNA in osteoblasts and then examined association of a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the human CAR gene at intron 2 (IVS2–99C>T, rs2502815) with bone mineral density (BMD).
Methods: Expression levels of CAR mRNA were analyzed during the culture course of rat primary osteoblasts. Association of an SNP in the CAR gene with BMD was examined in 548 healthy Japanese postmenopausal women.
Results: CAR mRNA increased at day 16 and then increased during culture of rat primary osteoblasts. The increase of CAR mRNA was parallel with the increase of alkaline phosphatase expression, a differentiation marker of osteoblasts. As a result of association study of an SNP in the CAR gene at intron 2, subjects with the CC genotype ( n = 208) had significantly higher BMD than subjects with the TT or CT genotype ( n = 340) (lumbar spine BMD, P = 0.0185; total body BMD, P = 0.0416).
Conclusion: CAR mRNA was expressed and regulated in primary osteoblasts. A genetic variation at the CAR gene locus is associated with BMD, suggesting an involvement of the CAR gene in bone metabolism. 相似文献

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene (VEGFA) polymorphism can predict the prognosis in acute myeloid leukaemia patients 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Increased angiogenesis, mediated by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), was associated with poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients. The current study investigated the impact of VEGF gene ( VEGFA ) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on treatment outcomes for AML. Four VEGFA SNPs were analysed for −2578C>A (rs699947), −460T>C (rs833061), +405G>C (rs2010963) and +936 C>T (rs3025039) loci in 138 AML patients. The +936 CC/CT genotype showed strong correlation with favourable leukaemia-free survival (LFS) at 2 years (51·3%) versus with +936 CC genotype (33·6%, P = 0·03). Strong linkage disequilibrium was noted among loci −2578, −460 and +405, but not with +936. Accordingly, four haplotypes were generated based on the genotypes of −2578, −460 and +405 as follows: CTC (40·2%), CTG (35·0%), ACG (22·0%) and ATC (1·2%). The LFS and event-free survival (EFS) inversely correlated with CTG haplotype ( P = 0·03 for LFS; P = 0·05 for EFS). We scored the VEGFA polymorphism marker based on +936 C>T genotype and CTG haplotype for −2578, −460 and +405, which demonstrated a good correlation with the treatment outcomes: LFS ( P = 0·01), EFS ( P = 0·03) and overall survival ( P = 0·01). The VEGFA +936 C>T genotype and CTG haplotype seemed to have an additive effect to predict the prognosis in AML patients. 相似文献

Background:Recently, some studies have suggested that the association of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) gene polymorphism with prostate cancer (PCa) risk, but there are still some controversies. Hence, we elaborated the relationship between APE1 rs1760944 and rs1130409 gene and PCa risk through systematic literature review and meta-analysis.Methods:As of March 2020, EMBASE, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Science Direct/Elsevier, MEDLINE and CNKI were used for systematic literature retrieval to investigate the correlation between APE1 rs1760944 and rs1130409 gene polymorphism with PCa risk. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager and Stata software.Results:Seven studies were distinguished, consists of 1769 cases of PCa patients and 2237 normal controls. Our results illustrated that there are significant correlation between the APE1 rs1760944 gene polymorphism and PCa in all genetic models (P < .05). The combined odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were as follows: Additive model (ORs 0.62, 95%, CI [0.39, 0.97]); Codominant model (ORs 0.74, 95% CI [0.58, 0.95]); Dominant model (ORs 0.75, 95%, CI [0.59, 0.95]); Recessive model (ORs 0.63, 95% CI [0.41, 0.96]); Allele model (ORs 0.78, 95% CI [0.65, 0.94]). There also have significant associations between APE1 rs1130409 polymorphisms and PCa in all genetic models (P < .05). The combined odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were as follows: Additive model (ORs 1.37, 95%, CI [1.01, 1.85]); Codominant model (ORs 1.21, 95% CI [1.01, 1.44]); Dominant model (ORs 1.33, 95%, CI [1.02, 1.73]); Recessive model (ORs 1.74, 95% CI [1.06, 2.85]); Allele model (ORs 1.14, 95% CI [1.00, 1.29]).Conclusion:This study suggests that APE1 rs1760944 polymorphisms might be a protective factor of PCa, and APE1 rs1130409 is suggested to be a risk factor of PCa. APE1 rs1760944 and rs1130409 polymorphisms may be used in the risk assessment of PCa. 相似文献

Purpose:To assess expression levels of Ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and von Willebrand factor (vWF), and assess their potentials as prognostic biomarkers to predict the risk of poor survival in patients with primary lower grade glioma.Method:The study included75 patients with histopathologically confirmed primary glioma (World Health Organization Grade IV). All patients underwent combined surgery and postoperative radiotherapy for the management of primary glioma. Immuno-histochemical analysis was performed to evaluate expression levels ofEphA2 and VEGF. Evaluation of tumor microvessel density was also performed at angiogenesis hot spots due to tumor growth. Main outcomes of the study were the prognostic efficiencies of EphA2, VEGF, and vWF in primary low-grade glioma, as well as whether their expression levels were associated with cancer progression.Results:Of the patients with glioma, 67% had very strong expression of EphA2. Overall survival was inversely correlated with the expression of EphA2. Regarding VEGF expression, 38 patients (51%) had strong expression, 29 patients (39%) had weak expression, and 8 patients (11%) had no expression. Strong VEGF expression was associated with poor prognosis and poor survival.Conclusion:EphA2, VEGF, and vWF could be considered prognostic markers for assessment of primary glioma. 相似文献

Objectives To study the association of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2076185 in chromosome 6p24.1 with the premature coronary artery diseases (PCAD) in Chinese Han population. Methods A total of 1382 patients were divided into the PCAD group and the control group based on their coronary arteriography (CAG) results. Their SNP rs2076185 were analyzed by the mass-spectrometry. Their allele and genotype frequency in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were calculated for assessment. Logistic regression was employed to remove confounding factors and correlate SNP rs2076185 with PCAD. Results The allele and genotype frequencies of the control group were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05). The frequencies of allele G of rs2076185 were 54.2% in the PCAD group and 49.5% in the control group. The difference was significant (P = 0.042). The genotype distribution of rs2076185 of the two groups was also significantly different. The univariate analysis showed that the rs2076185 polymorphisms were associated with the PCAD only in the additive model (OR: 0.828, 95% CI: 0.711?0.964, P = 0.014), and in the dominant model (OR: 0.753, 95% CI: 0.591?0.958, P = 0.021). After removing the confounding variables, the rs2076185 polymorphisms was associated with PCAD in the additive model (OR: 0.775, 95% CI: 0.648?0.928, P = 0.005), in the dominant model (OR: 0.698, 95% CI: 0.527?0.925, P = 0.012), and in the recessive model (OR: 0.804, 95% CI: 0.538?0.983, P = 0.038). Conclusion Allele G of rs2076185 reduces the PCAD risks in Chinese Han population, therefore it could be a coronary artery diseases protective factor in Chinese Han population. 相似文献

Human lifespan is determined greatly by genetic factors and some investigations have identified putative genes implicated in human longevity. Although some genetic loci have been associated with longevity, most of them are difficult to replicate due to ethnic differences. In this study, we analyzed the association of 18 reported gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with longevity in 1075 samples consisting of 567 nonagenarians/centenarians and 508 younger controls using the GenomeLab SNPstream Genotyping System. Our results confirm the association of the forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) variant (rs13217795) and the ATM serine/threonine kinase (ATM) variant (rs189037) genotypes with longevity (p=0.0075 and p=0.026, using the codominant model and recessive model, respectively). Of note is that we first revealed the association of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) gene polymorphism rs11977526 with longevity in Chinese nonagenarians/centenarians (p=0.033 using the dominant model and p=0.035 using the overdominant model). The FOXO3 and IGFBP-3 form important parts of the insulin/insulin-like growth factor-1 signaling pathway (IGF-1) implicated in human longevity, and the ATM gene is involved in sensing DNA damage and reducing oxidative stress, therefore our results highlight the important roles of insulin pathway and oxidative stress in the longevity in the Chinese population. 相似文献

BACKGROUND The xeroderma pigmentosum group G(XPG)gene at chromosome 13q33 consists of 15 exons,which may be related to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer(GC).AIM To examine the association of several common single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)of the XPG gene with GC risk and survival.METHODS Five SNPs of XPG(rs2094258,rs751402,rs873601,rs2296147,and rs1047768)were genotyped by PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism in 956 histologically confirmed GC cases and 1012 controls in North China.GC patients were followed for survival status and,if deceased,cause of death.Logistic regression and Cox regression were used for analysing associations of XPG SNPs with risk of GC and prognosis,respectively.For rs2094258,heterozygous model(CT vs CC),homozygous model(TT vs CC),recessive model(TT vs CT+CC),and dominant model(TT+CT vs CC)were analyzed.RESULTS None of the examined loci were statistically associated with GC risk,although rs2296147 was marginally associated with GC risk(P=0.050).GC patients with the rs2094258 CT+CC genotype showed worse survival than those with the TT genotype(log-rank test,P=0.028),and patients with the CC genotype had a tendency of unfavourable prognosis compared with those with the TT+CT genotype(log-rank test,P=0.039).The increase in C alleles of rs2094258[hazard ratio(HR)=1.19,95%confidence interval(CI):1.02-1.45,P=0.037]were associated with the long-term survival of GC cases.Other risk factors for survival included tumor differentiation(HR=4.51,95%CI:1.99-8.23,P<0.001),lymphovascular invasion(HR=1.97,95%CI:1.44-3.01,P<0.001),and use of chemotherapy(HR=0.81,95%CI:0.63-0.98,P=0.041).CONCLUSION The XPG rs2094258 polymorphism may be associated with overall survival in GC patients. 相似文献

Background:Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common spinal deformity among children and adolescents worldwide with its etiology uncertain. Over a decade, a single nucleotide polymorphism rs10488682 in tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) gene has been investigated in several association studies. We perform this study to summarize the current evidence of TPH1 rs10488682 polymorphisms and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).Methods:Six databases were systematically searched: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Chinese Biomedical Literature, and Wanfang database. Eligible case–control studies related to TPH1 and AIS were selected. Reference lists of them were reviewed for more available studies. Two authors independently screened and evaluated the literature and extracted data. The odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were derived in association tests. Subgroup analysis was conducted by ethnicity. Sensitivity analysis was performed to examine the stability of the overall results.Results:A total of 1006 cases and 1557 controls in 3 independent studies were included for meta-analysis. Statistical significance was discovered in heterozygote model (AT vs AA: OR = 1.741, 95%Cl = 1.100–2.753, P = .018 < .05, I2 = 0%), recessive model (AA vs AT + TT: OR = 0.640, 95%Cl = 0.414–0.990, P = .045 < .05, I2 = 0%) and over-dominant model (AT vs AA + TT: OR = 1.366, 95%Cl = 1.115–1.673, P = .003 < .05, I2 = 84.7%) in overall populations. Similar associations were also found in the Caucasian population. No significant associations were found in other genotypic comparisons and allelic comparisons.Conclusions:Statistically significant correlations were discovered between the TPH1 rs10488682 polymorphisms and AIS. Heterozygous AT genotype seems to be risky with an over-dominant effect. Ethnicity appears to modify the disease association.Registration:Not applicable. 相似文献

Hypertension (HT) has recently been defined as a systolic blood pressure (BP) of ≥130 mm Hg and/or a diastolic BP of ≥80 mm Hg. It is important to further understand the pathophysiology of essential HT as its proportion is larger among most of the diagnosed HT cases. The apelin and apelin receptor (APLNR) are known to play roles in regulating BP, but the putative associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the APLNR gene with the risk of development of essential HT have not yet been fully investigated. Herein, we conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms in the APLNR gene and the risk of essential HT.We conducted a search in the PubMed and Web of Science databases for eligible studies. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using random-effects models when heterogeneity was expected across the studies. Otherwise, fixed-effect models were used.Regarding the SNP rs7119375, 5 studies were analyzed, which included a total of 3567 essential HT patients and 3256 healthy controls. Four of the 5 studies were from China and 1 was from Mexico. The meta-analysis showed the existence of a significant association between the AA genotype of rs7119375 and the risk of developing essential HT in the Chinese population, as determined using additive and recessive models (OR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.12–3.96; I2 = 86% for AA vs GG. OR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.21–1.94; I2 = 28% for AA vs AG. OR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.13–3.12; I2 = 79% for AA vs AG + GG).Our study showed, for the first time, the existence of an association between rs7119375 and the risk of development of essential HT in the Chinese population, although the sample size was small and there was considerable population heterogeneity. The apelin/APLNR system could be a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of essential HT, and more studies are warranted to further investigate the association. 相似文献
