α2-巨球蛋白基因I1000V多态性与散发阿尔茨海默氏病的关联研究

目的近年来有研究发现α2-巨球蛋白基因(α2-macroglobulin，A2M)Ile1000Val多态与阿尔茨海默氏病(Alzheimer’s disease，AD)发病有关联，但也有相悖的研究结果报道。因此．我们利用较大的样本，观察了A2M基因Ile1000Val多态在广州及成都地区汉族老年人中的分布，并探讨其与散发AD的相关性。方法以广州地区257例散发AD患者和242名正常老年人、成都地区112例散发AD患者和113名正常老年人为对象进行病例一对照研究。用聚合酶链反应一限制性片段长度多态性方法分析A2M基因11000V多态性和载脂蛋白E基因(apolipoprotelnE，apoE)多态性。结果(1)在两地合并样本中，AD患者与对照组中等位基因A2M-1000V的频率分别为7．7％与8．7％，广州与成都地区AD患者与对照组中A2M基因I1000V多态的分布差异无统计学意义。(2)散发AD无论按是否伴有apoE—ε4或按发病年龄分成不同亚组后，A2M基因I1000V多态的分布在病例组与对照组之间差异无统计学意义。结论广州与成都汉族人群中A2M基因I1000V多态与散发AD不具有关联。

Analysis of slc19a2, on 1q23.3 encoding a thiamine transporter as a candidate gene for type 2 diabetes mellitus in pima indians

Mutations in the SLC19A2 gene cause thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (TRMA) frequently combined with diabetes mellitus and deafness. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is heritable and a region on 1q21-q23 encompassing SLC19A2 was linked with the disease in Pima Indians and Caucasians. We therefore investigated this candidate gene in selected diabetic and nondiabetic Pimas and found no variants. We conclude that mutations in SLC19A2 do not contribute to type 2 diabetes in this population.     

Haplotypic association of DDAH1 with susceptibility to pre-eclampsia

Association between pre-eclampsia (PEE1) and the dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) 1 and 2 genes, which play a role in the regulation of nitric oxide synthesis and release, was studied. In a case-control study design single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were determined at eight sites in the DDAH1 gene and at one site (Pro231Pro) in the DDAH2 gene from 132 women with pre-eclampsia and 112 healthy controls. Three SNPs in the DDAH1 gene were associated with pre-eclampsia, showing complete linkage disequilibrium with each other, but none of the associations in the allele or genotype data reached statistical significance in either of the genes after the correction for multiple testing. Haplotype frequencies were estimated using a population based on a maximum likelihood method (EM algorithm). Four common DDAH1 haplotypes were present and a significant association of haplotypes H2 and H3 with pre-eclampsia (P=0.03) was found. The risk of pre-eclampsia was greatest in individuals (odds ratio: 3.93; 95% confidence interval: 1.54-9.99) who had two copies of the high-risk haplotypes (H2 or H3). The observed haplotypic association provides the first evidence of the importance of DDAH1 polymorphisms in pre-eclampsia susceptibility.     

No association between schizophrenia and homozygosity at the D3 dopamine receptor gene

The D₃ dopamine receptor gene is an important candidate gene for schizophrenia, since (because of its almost exclusive expression in the limbic system) it combines the dopamine receptor hypothesis with the limbic system hypothesis of schizophrenia. A BalI restriction fragment length polymorphism of the D₃ dopamine receptor gene has been typed in 107 schizophrenic patients and 98 normal controls from Sichuan (China). With regard to alleles or genotypes, no significant differences were obtained between controls from Europe and China, between patients and controls, and between patient subgroups and controls. These results indicate a lack of association between schizophrenia and the D₃ dopamine receptor gene in our sample. Our findings are at variance with reports of a significant excess of homozygosity at the D₃ dopamine receptor gene in schizophrenic patients from Wales (United Kingdom) and Alsace (France). In conclusion, further studies will be needed with larger samples of patients from Wales and Alsace as well as with samples of different racial groups to prove or disprove the initial positive association between schizophrenia and genotypes of the D₃ dopamine receptor gene. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Lineage extinction and replacement in dengue type 1 virus populations are due to stochastic events rather than to natural selection

Between 1996 and 1998, two clades (B and C; genotype I) of dengue virus type 1 (DENV-1) appeared in Myanmar (Burma) that were new to that location. Between 1998 and 2000, a third clade (A; genotype III) of DENV-1, which had been circulating at that locality for at least 25 years, became extinct. These changes preceded the largest outbreak of dengue recorded in Myanmar, in 2001, in which more than 95% of viruses recovered from patients were DENV-1, but where the incidence of severe disease was much less than in previous years. Phylogenetic analyses of viral genomes indicated that the two new clades of DENV-1 did not arise from the, now extinct, clade A viruses nor was the extinction of this clade due to differences in the fitness of the viral populations. Since the extinction occurred during an inter-epidemic period, we suggest that it was due to a stochastic event attributable to the low rate of virus transmission in this interval.
