Genetic association between PAX2 and mullerian duct anomalies in Han Chinese females.

ABSTRACT: The study aims to investigate the genetic association between paired box gene 2 (PAX2) and mullerian duct anomalies (MDA) in Chinese Han females.Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was used to identify the genotypes of three tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PAX2 in 362 MDA cases and 406 controls.We found that one tag SNP (rs12266644) of PAX2 was associated with susceptibility to MDA. The genotype distributions of the SNP rs12266644 have a statistically significant difference in the MDA patients and controls with a p value?=?0.008. In the dominant model, we also observed that the GT?+?TT genotype increased the risk for MDA (p?=?0.015, OR?=?1.637, 95 % CI?=?1.096-2.443).The polymorphism rs12266644 of PAX2 might be a risk factor for MDA in Chinese Han females.

Studying Mullerian duct anomalies - from cataloguing phenotypes to discovering causation.

Project description:Müllerian duct anomalies (MDAs) are developmental disorders of the Müllerian duct, the embryonic anlage of most of the female reproductive tract. The prevalence of MDAs is 6.7% in the general female population and 16.7% in women who exhibit recurrent miscarriages. Individuals affected by these anomalies suffer from high rates of infertility, first-trimester pregnancy losses, premature labour, placental retention, foetal growth retardation and foetal malpresentations. The aetiology of MDAs is complex and heterogeneous, displaying a range of clinical pictures that generally lack a direct genotype-phenotype correlation. De novo and familial cases sharing the same genomic lesions have been reported. The familial cases follow an autosomal-dominant inheritance, with reduced penetrance and variable expressivity. Furthermore, few genetic factors and molecular pathways underpinning Müllerian development and dysregulations causing MDAs have been identified. The current knowledge in this field predominantly derives from loss-of-function experiments in mouse and chicken models, as well as from human genetic association studies using traditional approaches, such as microarrays and Sanger sequencing, limiting the discovery of causal factors to few genetic entities from the coding genome. In this Review, we summarise the current state of the field, discuss limitations in the number of studies and patient samples that have stalled progress, and review how the development of new technologies provides a unique opportunity to overcome these limitations. Furthermore, we discuss how these new technologies can improve functional validation of potential causative alterations in MDAs.

Association between PPAP2B gene polymorphisms and coronary heart disease susceptibility in Chinese Han males and females.

Project description:Little is known about gender-related differences in the association between PPAP2B single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and coronary heart disease (CHD) in Chinese Han males and females. We therefore conducted a case-control study with 456 cases and 685 healthy controls divided into male and female subgroups. Five PPAP2B polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected and genotyped using Sequenom Mass-ARRAY technology. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using unconditional logistic regression adjusting for age and gender. Allelic model analysis revealed that for PPAP2B rs1759752, allele frequency distributions differed between cases and controls in the male subgroup (p = 0.015, OR: 1.401, 95%CI: 1.066-1.481). Genetic model analysis revealed that in the male subgroup, rs1759752 was associated with increased CHD risk in the dominant model (p = 0.035) and overdominant model (p = 0.045). In the female subgroup, rs12566304 was associated with a decreased CHD risk in the codominant model (p = 0.038) and overdominant model (p = 0.031). Additionally, the "GC" haplotypes of rs1759752 and rs1930760 were protective against CHD in males. These observations shed new light on gender-related differences in the association between PPAP2B gene polymorphisms and CHD susceptibility in the Chinese Han population.

Genetic association between CARD9 variants and inflammatory bowel disease was not replicated in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:In order to investigate whether CARD9 gene is associated with IBD in Chinese Han population, we replicated 2 SNPs of CARD9 which have been reported to be significantly associated with IBD.Two SNPs were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers in 288 patients (232 CD patients, 56 UC patients) and 274 controls.The frequencies and distributions of alleles and genotypes of the tested SNPs were analyzed, and no significant differences were found between patients and controls.We observed no significant association between the investigated CARD9 SNPs and the susceptibility of either CD or UC. Further studies with larger sample size focusing on different ethnicities are required to elucidate the correlation between CARD9 and IBD.

Genetic association between selected cytokine genes and glioblastoma in the Han Chinese population.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor. Many abnormal secretion and expression of cytokines have been found in GBM, initially speculated that the occurrence of GBM may be involved in these abnormal secretion of cytokines. This study aims to detect the association of cytokine genes with GBM. METHODS:We selected seven tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) in six cytokine genes, which previously reported to be associated with brain tumors, and analyzed their association with GBM in a Han Chinese population using ?(2) test and genetic model analysis. RESULTS:We found two risk tSNPs and one protective tSNP. By ?(2) test, the rs1801275 in IL-4R showed an increased risk of GBM. In the genetic model analysis, the genotype "TC" of rs20541 in IL-13 gene showed an increased risk of GBM in over-dominant model (OR?=?2.00; 95% CI, 1.13-3.54, p?=?0.015); the genotype "CT" of rs1800871 in the IL-10 gene showed a decrease risk in the over-dominant model (OR?=?0.57; 95% CI, 0.33 - 0.97; p?=?0.037). The genotype "AG" of rs1801275 in the IL-4R gene showed an increase risk in over-dominant model (OR?=?2.29; 95% CI, 1.20 - 4.35; p?=?0.0081) We further analyzed whether the six cytokine genes have a different effect on the disease in gender specific population, and found that the allele "G" of rs2243248 in the IL-4 gene showed a decrease risk of GBM in female (OR?=?0.35, 95% CI, 0.13 - 0.94, p?=?0.0032), but the allele "T" showed a decrease risk in male (OR?=?0.30, 95% CI, 0.17 - 0.53, p?=?0.0032). CONCLUSIONS:Our findings, combined with previously reported results, suggest that cytokine genes have potential role in GBM development, which may be useful to early prognostics for GBM in the Han Chinese population.

Association between Common Genetic Variants and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Risk in a Chinese Han Population.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrinopathies affecting 5-7% of reproductive age women worldwide. The aim of our study was to explore the PCOS-related single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associations between common genetic variants and PCOS risk in a Han Chinese women population.In this case-control study, 285 Chinese Han women aged 28.50±6.858 years with PCOS and 299 controls of a mean age of 32.66±7.018 years were compared. We selected recently published genome-wide association studies (GWAS) which identified several genetic loci in PCOS. All the SNPs were genotyped by Sequenom Mass-ARRAY technology. Associations between the gene and the risk of PCOS were tested using various genetic models by Statistical Package for the Social Sciences and Plink.We found that rs705702 in the RAB5B/SUOX was associated with PCOS (odds ratio=1.42; 95% confidence interval=1.08-1.87, p=0.011) and increased the PCOS risk. The genotypic model analysis also showed that rs705702 was associated with PCOS risk.Our results suggest that SNPs rs705702 in gene RAB5B/SUOX was associated with PCOS in Han Chinese women.

Evaluation of the association between the AC3 genetic polymorphisms and obesity in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:BACKGROUND: AC3 is one of adenylyl cyclase isoforms involved in cAMP and insulin signaling pathway. Recent reports have demonstrated that the AC3 genetic polymorphisms are associated with obesity in a Swedish population. AC3 knock out mice exhibit obese when they age. These findings suggest that AC3 plays an important role in the regulation of body weight. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: In the present study, we evaluated the association between the AC3 genetic polymorphisms and obesity in a Han Chinese population. A total of 2580 adults, including 1490 lean (BMI?=?18.5-23.9), 677 overweight (BMI 24.0-27.9) and 413 obese (BMI ?28.0) subjects were genotyped for 5 TagSNPs in the AC3 gene. Single maker association analyses indicated that SNP rs753529 was significantly associated with BMI in obese subjects (P?=?0.022, OR?=?0.775 95%CI?=?0.623-0.963), but not in overweight subjects (P?=?0.818). Multiple maker association analyses showed that the haplotype (G-G-G) constructed with SNPs rs1127568, rs7604576 and rs753529 was significantly associated with obesity (P?=?0.029). Further genotyping of SNP rs753529 in 816 children, including 361 overweight subjects (BMI>P(80)) and 455 controls (BMI?=?P(20-50)) were performed, and no significant association with BMI was found. All tests were adjusted for age, sex, physical activity index, household income and/or diet expenses. CONCLUSIONS: The present study provides replication evidence that the AC3 genetic polymorphisms are associated with decreased risk of obesity among adults but not in children in a Chinese Han population. The data also suggest that the AC3 genetic effects on BMI may have interaction with the factors related to ageing and environment.

Genetic association between CD44 polymorphisms and chronic hepatitis B virus infection in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:This article aimed at discussing the association of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection with CD44 polymorphisms in Chinese Han population; meanwhile, the interaction of polymorphisms was also analyzed based on chronic HBV infection.The genotyping of CD44 polymorphisms was conducted by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 108 HBV infected and 130 healthy persons. The genotype distributions of CD44 rs187115, rs13347 in the control group were checked by Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). The strength of the relevance between polymorphism and disease was measured by odds ratio (OR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) calculated by ?(2) test. The 2×4 crossover analysis method was used to conduct the interaction analysis of polymorphisms.The genotype distributions in controls conformed to HWE. GG genotype and G allele frequencies in rs187115 were obviously higher in cases than the controls (P=0.02, 0.04). Compared with the common genotype CC, individual who carried mutant genotypes (CT and TT) of rs13347 had a significantly high risk to suffer from HBV infection (OR=1.99, P=0.02 for CT; OR=3.56, P=3.00×10(-3) for TT), furthermore, CT+TT genotype also showed a high susceptibility (OR=2.27, P=2.00×10(-3)). Similarly, T allele of rs13347 increased 0.98 times risk in cases compared with controls (OR=1.98, 95% CI=1.34-2.92). The two polymorphisms in CD44 presented a positive interaction.CD44 polymorphisms are associated with chronic HBV infection as the risk factors, and the synergistic action is also found between the two polymorphisms.

Genetic association study between TAB2 polymorphisms and noise-induced-hearing-loss in a Han Chinese population.

Project description:Noise-induced-hearing-loss(NIHL) is a common occupational disease caused by various environmental and biological factors. To investigate the association between TAB2 and the susceptibility of NIHL of people exposed to occupational environments, a genetic association study was performed on selected companies with 588 cases and 537 healthy control subjects. Five selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TAB2,incoluding rs2744434, rs521845, rs652921, rs7896, rs9485372, were genotyped after a collection of DNA samples. Evident differences in participants between the case group and the control group reveals the result that people with the TAB2 has a high probability of getting NIHL. The results show that rs521845 is deeply associated with the risk of NIHL and is available for the diagnosis in the future.

Analysis of the genetic association between IL27 variants and coronary artery disease in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:Interleukin-27 (IL-27) is an important cytokine in inflammatory diseases, including coronary artery disease (CAD). To explore the precise role of IL-27 in CAD, we investigated the genetic association between IL27 and CAD in the GeneID Chinese Han population. A two-stage case control association analysis was performed for 3075 CAD cases and 2802 controls. Logistic regression analysis was used to adjust the traditional risk factors for CAD. Results showed that a promoter variant, rs153109, tended to be marginally associated with CAD in the discovery population (Padj?=?0.028, OR?=?1.27, 95%CI: 1.03-1.58). However, this association was not replicated in the validation stage (Padj?=?0.559, OR?=?1.04, 95%CI: 0.90-1.21). In addition, when we classified the combined population into two subgroups according to the age at disease onset or disease state, we again obtained no significant associations. Finally, we estimated the severity of coronary stenosis using the Gensini Scoring system and determined that the rs153109 genotypes were still not associated with the Gensini scores of the CAD patients. In conclusion, our study failed to find an association between common variants in the functional region of IL27 and CAD in a Chinese Han population, which indicated that IL-27 might only be an inflammatory marker during the development of CAD.

Association between genetic polymorphism in NFKB1 and NFKBIA and coronary artery disease in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:Prior studies have demonstrated NF-?B plays an important role in the development and progression of inflammatory diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate whether promoter polymorphisms in NFKB1 and NFKBIA gene are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) in a Chinese Han population. METHODS:A total of 1140 Han CAD patients and 1156 Han control subjects were genotyped for 4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of NFKBIA gene (rs3138053, rs2233406, rs2233409) and NFKB1 gene (-94 ins/del ATTG, rs28362491) by using the TaqMan SNP genotyping assays, and then NFKBIA haplotype blocks were reconstructed according to our genotyping data. RESULTS:For total, men, and women, the distribution of genotypes, alleles of rs3138053, rs2233406, rs2233409 and haplotype polymorphisms showed no significant difference between CAD cases and controls. None of the studied NFKBIA SNPs were associated with CAD. For total, men, and women, there was significant difference in the distribution of the genotypes (P=0.001, P=0.024, P= 0.022) and alleles (P=0.001, P=0.012, P=0.031) of rs28362491 in CAD cases and controls. For total, men, and women, the rs28362491 was associated with increased risk of CAD in a recessive model after adjustment for covariates (OR=1.505, 95% CI 1.190 to 1.903, P=0.001; OR=1.469, 95% CI 1.082-1.993, P=0.014; OR=1.622, 95% CI 1.118 to 2.352, P=0.011, respectively). CONCLUSIONS:In our study, the -94 ins/del ATTG polymorphism in NFKB1 promoter is associated with CAD susceptibility in Chinese Han population, providing a new insight into the genetics of CAD in Chinese Han population.
