Background: Previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) has revealed the association between MYP10 at 8p23 and MYP15 at 10q21.1 and high myopia (HM) in a French population. This study is managed to discover the connection between some single nucleotide polymorphism (located at MYP10 and MYP15) and Han Chinese HM.
Methods and Results: This case-control association study contained 1673 samples, including 869 ophthalmic patients and 804 controls. Twelve tag SNPs have been selected from the MYP10 and MYP15 loci and genotyped by SNaPshot method. Among 12 SNPs, rs4840437 and rs6989782 in TNKS gene were found significant association with HM. Carriers of rs4840437G allele and rs4840437GG genotype created a low risk of high myopia (P = .036, OR = 0.81, 95%CI = 0.71–0.93; P = .016, OR = 0.73, 95%CI = 0.56–0.96; respectively). Carriers of rs6989782T allele and rs6989782TT+CT genotype also had a decreased risk of high myopia (P = .048, OR = 0.82, 95%CI = 0.71–0.94; P = .006, OR = 0.74, 95%CI = 0.59–0.92; respectively). Other 10 SNPs displaced nonsignificant association with HM. Additionally, the risk haplotype AC and the protective haplotype GT, generated by two SNPs in TNKS, were considerably more likely to be association with HM (for AC, P = .002 and OR = 1.26; for GT, P = .027 and OR = 0.84).
Conclusions: Our results demonstrated that some heritable variants in the TNKS gene are associated with HM in the Han population. The possible functions of TNKS in the development and pathogenesis of hereditary high myopia still require further researches to identify. 相似文献
目的:建立大鼠肝脏移植急性排斥反应模型并改进其手术技巧,对所建模型进行评价。方法:采用近交系雄性DA大鼠60只,Lewis大鼠120只,分为两组,其中A组30例:Lewis大鼠为供体(n=30),Lewis大鼠为受体;B组60例:DA大鼠为供体(n=60),Lewis大鼠为受体。采用改良“二袖套”法建立肝脏移植模型,观察手术成功率、平均存活时间、术后第1、3、5、7和10 d各时相点血清丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)、总胆红素(TBIL)水平以及移植肝脏的病理学变化。结果:手术成功率为93.3%(84/90);总耗时(90.0±15.0)min;无肝期时间(14.2±2.6)min;平均存活时间A组超过100d,B组(16.2±1.4)d;术后第5 d B组血清ALT和TBIL升高,与A组比较差异非常显著(P<0.01);B组移植肝脏病理检查有明显的排斥反应,而A组没有。结论:DA→LEW(Lewis)大鼠的品系组合是稳定的肝脏移植急性排斥反应模型;通过改进手术技巧提高了手术成功率,为进一步研究提供技术保障。 相似文献
