Apolipoprotein B-100 gene Xba I polymorphism and cholesterol gallstone disease

The apolipoprotein (apo) B gene Xba I polymorphism is associated with alterations in serum lipids. Disturbances in serum lipids may be a risk factor for cholesterol gallstone disease. However, the relation between the Xba I polymorphism and cholesterol gallstones is unknown. This study was aimed at characterizing the polymorphism of the apo B gene Xba I in patients with gallbladder stones and the association of Xba I polymorphism with serum lipids. Xba I genotypes were measured by PCR-RFLP, and serum lipids assayed in 190 patients with gallbladder stones and 441 control subjects. The frequency of the X+/- genotype (20.63 vs. 7.94%) and X+ allele (10.79 vs. 3.97%) was significantly higher in the patient group than in the control group. Patients with the X+/- genotype had a significantly higher concentration of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, and apo B in serum than patients with the X-/- genotype. The X+ allele of the apo B gene is characterized by a higher cholesterol concentration and a higher LDL-cholesterol concentration in serum, and it may be a marker for increased risk of cholesterol gallstone disease.

The novel HLA-Cw*1802 allele is associated with B*5703 in the Bubi population from Equatorial Guinea

The HLA-Cw*1801 specificity, a Cw7/Cw4 hybrid allele, has recently been described in association with B*8101 (formerly B"DT"). In this study, the new Cw*1802 variant, differing from Cw*1801 at exon 5. is found associated with B*5703 in Bubi individuals from Equatorial Guinea. Confirmatory complete coding regions of B*5703 and B*3910 are also reported.     

Carrier detection in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy Argentine families

In order to offer carrier detection, genetic counseling, and prenatal diagnosis to families with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) in our country, segregation analysis of highly polymorphic short tandem repeats (STR) (dC-dA)n: (dG-dT)n loci was utilized. The risks to females of 15 DMD/BMD families (9 familial and 6 sporadic) were evaluated on STR, pedigree and serum creatine kinase (SCK) data. From the 36 females at risk of being carriers (not including 8 obligate carriers), results of STR analysis were compatible with carrier status in 7 and not compatible in 20. In 9 females, no information regarding carriership was derived from the STR analysis. Prenatal diagnosis is now possible on the carrier females. Previously identified deletions in the central part of the gene were confirmed by STR analysis in 3 families. Five new alleles were identified in Argentine individuals; allele frequencies differed from those of North American people. Results derived from this study are useful for carrier detection and genetic counseling in DMD/BMD. One case of probable mosaicism in an unaffected father was detected on a pedigree basis in a family with DMD patients.     

湖南汉族人群HLA-DP、-DQ位点等位基因多态性与鼻咽癌的相关性

目的 探讨湖南汉族人群HLA—DP、HLA—DQ位点等位基因多态性与鼻咽癌遗传易感性之间的关系。方法 应用聚合酶链反应—特异性寡核苷酸探针基因分型技术对87例湖南汉族鼻咽癌患者与91名健康对照作HLA—DPAl、—DPBl、—DQAl及—DQBl的基因分型，采用x^2检验比较两组各位点等位基因频率，单倍型频率分布的差异。结果 发现鼻咽癌组DPAl*0201、DPBl*1901、DQAl*0201较对照组明显降低，DPBl*0402、DQAl*0101较对照组明显升高；单倍型DPAl*0201—DPBl*1401及DQAl*0201—DQBl*0201较对照明显降低；但P值经Bonferroni校正后，差异均无显著性(Pc＞0．05)。结论 湖南汉族人群HLA—DP和—DQ位点与鼻咽癌无明显相关，与以往用受累同胞对方法在鼻咽癌家系中未能证实鼻咽癌易感基因与HLA—DP和—DQ位点连锁的结果一致。     

HLA-B*07 allele frequencies and haplotypic associations in Koreans

We have investigated the frequencies of HLA-B*07 alleles and their haplotypic associations with HLA-A, -C and -DRB1 loci in 489 healthy unrelated Koreans, including 214 parents from 107 families. All of the 45 samples (9.2%) typed as B7 by serology were analyzed for B*07 alleles using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) method. Two different B*07 alleles were detected: B*0702 (allele frequency 0.041) and B*0705 (0.005). Two characteristic haplotypes showing strong linkage disequilibrium in Koreans were A*2402-Cw*07-B*0702-DRB1*0101 (haplotype frequency 0.028) and A*2901-B*0705-DRB1*0803 (0.005). The characteristic haplotype A*2901-B*0705-DRB1*0803, found in 100% (5/5) of B*0705-positive individuals, has not been previously described in other ethnic groups. HLA-B7 alleles comprise distinctive extended haplotypes in the Korean population. The probability of HLA-B7 allele mismatches among ABDR-matched unrelated donor-recipient pairs is expected to be low in Koreans.
