Association Study of Reported Significant Loci at 5q35.3, 7p14.3, 13q14.1 and 16p12.3 with Urolithiasis in Chinese Han Ethnicity.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we aimed to validate the association of 8 reported significant loci at 5q35.3, 7p14.3, 13q14.1 and 16p12.3 with urolithiasis in Chinese Han population. We performed case-control association analysis using 624 patients with nephrolithiasis and 1008 control subjects. We selected single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) including rs12654812 and rs11746443 from 5q32.3; rs12669187 and rs1000597 from 7q14.3; rs7981733, rs4142110 and rs17646069 from 13q14.1 and rs4293393 from 16p12.3 which were previously reported to be associated with nephrolithiasis. We found none of these eight reported SNPs were significant associated with urolithiasis risk in Chinese Han population, which suggested that differences could exist in the mechanisms of calcium urolithiasis between Chinese and Japanese Ethnics. The A allele of rs12669187 was significantly correlated with increased level of serum magnesium. The C allele of rs1000597 was associated with higher levels of serum creatinine, uric acid, calcium and lower urine pH level. The T allele of rs4142110 was correlated with higher levels of serum magnesium, phosphorus, and lower AKP level. The G alleles of rs4293393 was associated with higher serum CO2 level. The risk alleles of these SNPs were proved to be associated with the electrolytes metabolism that may result in the formation of urolithiasis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rare disease characterized by proliferation and occlusion of small pulmonary arterioles, which has been associated with a high mortality rate. The pathogenesis of PH is complex and incompletely understood, which includes both genetic and environmental factors that alter vascular structure and function. METHODS:Thus we aimed to reveal the potential genetic etiology of PH by targeting 143 tag SNPs of 14 candidate genes. Totally 208 individuals from Chinese Han population were enrolled in the present study, including 109 non-idiopathic PH patients and 99 healthy controls. RESULTS:The data revealed that 2 SNPs were associated with PH overall susceptibility at p?<?3×10-?4 after Bonferroni correction. The top hit was rs6557421 (p?=?4.5×10-?9), located within Nox3 gene on chromosome 6. Another SNP rs3744439 located in Tbx4 gene, also showed evidence of association with PH susceptibility (p?=?1.2×10-?6). The distribution of genotype frequencies of rs6557421 and rs3744439 have dramatic differences between PH patients and controls. Individuals with rs6557421 TT genotype had a 10.72-fold/14.20-fold increased risk to develop PH when compared with GG or GG/GT carriers in codominant or recessive model, respectively (TT versus GG: 95%CI?=?4.79-24.00; TT versus GG/GT: 95%CI?=?6.65-30.33). As for rs3744439, AG genotype only occurred in healthy controls but has not been observed in PH patients. We further validated the result by using 26 different populations from five regions around the globe, including African (AFR), American (AMR), East Asian (EAS), European (EUR), and South Asian (SAS). In consistent with the present case-control study's results, significantly different genotype frequencies of the observed SNPs existed between PH patients and healthy individuals from all over the world. CONCLUSIONS:The results suggested that rs6557421 variant in Nox3 and rs3744439 variant in Tbx4 might have potential effect on individual susceptibility to pulmonary hypertension, which could lead to therapeutic or diagnosis approaches in PH.
