The relationship among the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 gene (CXCL12) and the serum lipid profiles in the Chinese population has rarely been described, especially in somewhat old-fashioned and isolated Maonan minority. The goal of the current study was to elucidate the connection among the CXCL12 rs501120 and rs1746048 SNPs, haplotypes, several environmental factors and serum lipid traits in the Maonan as well as Han populations.

Project description:Maonan nationality is a relatively conservative and isolated minority in China. Little is known about the association of the Slit-Robo Rho GTPase activating protein 2 gene (SRGAP2) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and serum lipid levels in the Chinese populations. This study was performed to clarify the association of the SRGAP2 rs2483058 and rs2580520 SNPs and their haplotypes with serum lipid traits in the Maonan and Han populations. Genotyping of the 2 SNPs was performed in 2444 unrelated subjects (Han, 1210 and Maonan, 1234) by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism combined with gel electrophoresis, and then confirmed by direct sequencing. The allelic (rs2483058) and genotypic (rs2483058 and rs2580520) frequencies were different between the two ethnic groups. Four haplotypes were identified in our populations, and the rs2483058G-rs2580520C haplotype was the commonest one. The rs2483058C-rs2580520G haplotype was associated with an increased risk of dyslipidemia, and showed consistent association with serum total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein (Apo) A1 levels, and the ApoA1/ApoB ratio. These results indicated that the SRGAP2 SNPs and their haplotypes were associated with serum lipid levels. Their haplotypes can explain much more serum lipid variation than any single SNP alone, especially for serum TC, HDL-C and ApoA1 levels.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Maonan nationality is a relatively conservative and isolated minority in the Southwest of China. Little is known about the association of endothelial lipase gene (LIPG) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and serum lipid levels in the Chinese populations. METHODS:A total of 1280 subjects of Maonan nationality and 1218 participants of Han nationality were randomly selected from our previous stratified randomized samples. Genotypes of the four LIPG SNPs were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, and then confirmed by direct sequencing. RESULTS:Several SNPs were associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (rs3813082, rs2000813 and rs2097055) in the both ethnic groups; total cholesterol and apolipoprotein (Apo) A1 (rs2000813) in Han nationality; and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, ApoB, triglyceride (rs2097055) and ApoA1 (rs3819166) in Maonan minority (P?<?0.0125 for all after Bonferroni correction). The commonest haplotype was rs3813082T-rs2000813C-rs2097055T-rs3819166A (Han, 44.2% and Maonan, 48.7%). The frequencies of the T-C-T-A, T-C-T-G, T-T-C-G and G-T-C-G haplotypes were different between the Maonan and Han populations (P?<?0.05-0.001). The associations between haplotypes and dyslipidemia were also different in the Han and/or Maonan populations (P?<?0.05-0.001). CONCLUSIONS:The differences in serum lipid profiles between the two ethnic groups might partly be attributed to these LIPG SNPs, their haplotypes and gene-environmental interactions. TRIAL REGISTRATION:Retrospectively registered.

Project description:The associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2710642 and rs10496099 and their effect on the EH domain-binding protein 1 (EHBP1) gene and serum lipid profiles remain uncertain. This study was performed to investigate the two EHBP1 SNPs in Han and Maonan populations, including their association, haplotypes, and effects on serum lipid levels. Two EHBP1 SNPs in 564 Han and 796 Maonan participants were genotyped by high-throughput sequencing, and then the genotype and haplotype distributions of two EHBP1 SNPs were analyzed. Moreover, risk factors and their effects on serum lipid levels were analyzed using multivariable linear regression and logistic regression analyses. In Han and Maonan populations, a significant difference was found in the allelic and genotypic frequencies of the EHBP1 rs2710642 and rs10496099 SNPs and the alternate alleles of rs2710642A and rs10496099C might be potentially beneficial for healthy lipid levels. Medium linkage disequilibrium between the two SNPs was noted in each ethnic group, and four main haplotypes were detected. The rs2710642G-rs10496099C haplotype was associated with high triglycerides (TGs) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and the rs2710642A-rs10496099C haplotype was associated with low TGs and high apolipoprotein A1. The rs2710642G-rs10496099C haplotype was a high-risk factor for hyperlipidemia, and it interacted with smoking, fasting blood glucose, and hypertension to increase but with the female factor to decrease the prevalence of hyperlipidemia in Han individuals. The EHBP1 rs2710642 and rs10496099 SNPs and gene-environment interactions were associated with serum lipid profiles and hyperlipidemia, which is of ethnic specificity to our study populations.

Project description:ObjectiveCirculatory metabolites are important biomarkers for many diseases, especially metabolic disorders. The biological mechanism regulating circulatory levels of metabolites remains incompletely understood. Focusing on the liver as the central organ controlling metabolic homeostasis, we investigated the potential function of nine polymorphisms associated with serum metabolomic traits in a recent GWAS.Materials/methodsThe mRNA levels of the associated genes were measured by real-time PCR and correlated with genotypes in normal liver tissue (n=42). Genotype and mRNA data were also correlated with total hepatic lipid content (HLC). Our findings were also compared with the previously published gene expression quantitative traits loci (eQTL) data in the liver.ResultsWe found that seven out of nine genes were highly expressed in hepatic tissue, while expression of four genes was significantly or marginally associated with genotypes (SPTLC3 vs rs168622, P=.002; ACADS vs rs2014355, P=.016; PLEKHH1 vs rs7156144, P=.076; ACADL vs rs2286963, P=.068). The SNP rs168622 at the SPTLC3 locus was also significantly correlated with HLC (P=.02). HLC was significantly correlated with FADS1 (r=-0.45; P=.003) and ETFDH (r=0.33; P=.037) expression. When compared with published eQTL data, SNPs in SPTLC3, ACADS, ELOVL2 and FADS1 were also in strong linkage disequilibrium (R(2)≥0.41, D'≥0.96) with eQTLs significantly affecting expression of these genes (P≤1.74×10(-5)).ConclusionsOur study suggests that genetic variants affecting serum metabolites levels may play a functional role in the liver. This may help elucidate the mechanism by which genetic variants are involved in metabolic diseases.

Project description:BackgroundLittle is known about the association of the dedicator of cytokinesis 7 (DOCK7 rs1748195) and angiopoietin like 3 (ANGPTL3 rs12563308) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their haplotypes with serum lipid levels and the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemic stroke (IS) in the Chinese populations. This study aimed to detect such association in a Southern Chinese Han population.MethodsThis study included 1728 subjects (CAD, 568; IS, 539; and controls, 621). Genotypes of the two SNPs were determined by the Snapshot technology.ResultsThe genotypic and allelic frequencies of the rs1748195 SNP were different between CAD patients and controls (P < 0.05 for each), the rs1748195G allele frequency was higher in CAD patients than in controls (27.6% vs. 23.6%, P = 0.024). The genotypic frequencies of the rs12563308 SNP were also different between CAD patients and controls (P = 0.021). The rs1748195 SNP was associated with an increased risk of CAD after controlling for potential confounders and Bonferroni correction (P < 0.025 considered statistically significant; Recessive: OR = 1.79, 95% CI = 1.04-3.06, P = 0.017; Log-additive: OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.02-1.57, P = 0.014), whereas the rs12563308 SNP was associated with a decreased risk of CAD (Dominant: OR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.45-0.94, P = 0.011; Log-additive: OR = 0.73, 95% CI = 0.49-0.89, P = 0.009). The rs1748195 SNP was also associated with an increased risk of severity to coronary artery atherosclerosis (Dominant: OR = 1.45, 95% CI = 1.07-2.11, P = 0.017; Log-additive: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.09-1.82, P = 0.013). The interactions of SNP-environment on serum lipid levels and the risk of severity to coronary artery atherosclerosis, CAD and IS were noted. The rs1748195G-rs12563308T haplotype was associated with an increased angiographic severity to coronary artery atherosclerosis (OR = 1.46, 95% CI = 1.05-2.03), and the risk of CAD (OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.08-1.74). The interactions of haplotype-hypertension on the risk of CAD and haplotype-drinking on the risk of CAD/IS were observed.ConclusionsThese results suggest that the DOCK-ANGPTL3 SNPs and their haplotypes were associated with the angiographic severity to coronary artery atherosclerosis and the risk of CAD and IS in the Southern Chinese Han population.

Project description:The association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the apolipoprotein (Apo) A1/C3/A4/A5 gene cluster and serum lipid profiles is inconsistent. The present study was undertaken to detect the association between the ApoA1/C3/A5 gene polymorphisms and their haplotypes with serum lipid levels in the general Chinese population.A total of 1030 unrelated subjects (492 males and 538 females) aged 15-89 were randomly selected from our previous stratified randomized cluster samples. Genotyping of the ApoA1 -75 bp G>A, ApoC3 3238C>G, ApoA5 -1131T>C, ApoA5 c.553G>T and ApoA5 c.457G>A was performed by polymerse chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism combined with gel electrophoresis, and then confirmed by direct sequencing. Pair-wise linkage disequilibria and haplotype analysis among the five SNPs were estimated.The levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and ApoA1 were lower in males than in femailes (P < 0.05 for each). The allelic and genotypic frequencies of the SNPs were no significant difference between males and females except ApoC3 3238C>G. There were 11 haplotypes with a frequency >1% identified in the cluster in our population. At the global level, the haplotypes comprised of all five SNPs were significantly associated with all seven lipid traits. In particular, haplotype G-G-C-C-A (6%; in the order of ApoA5 c.553G>T, ApoA5 c.457G>A, ApoA5 -1131T>C, ApoC3 3238C>G, and ApoA1 -75bp G>A) and G-A-T-C-G (4%) showed consistent association with total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), ApoA1, ApoB, and the ApoA1/ApoB ratio. In addition, carriers of haplotype G-G-T-C-G (26%) had increased serum concentration of HDL-C and ApoA1, whereas carriers of G-G-C-G-G (15%) had high concentrations of TC, triglyceride (TG) and ApoB. We also found that haplotypes with five SNPs explain much more serum lipid variation than any single SNP alone, especially for TG (4.4% for haplotype vs. 2.4% for -1131T>C max based on R-square) and HDL-C (5.1% for haplotype vs. 0.9% for c.553G>T based on R-square). Serum lipid parameters were also correlated with genotypes and several environment factors.Several common SNPs and their haplotypes in the ApoA1/C3/A5 gene cluster are closely associated with modifications of serum lipid parameters in the general Chinese population.

Project description:UNLABELLED: As glioma ranks as the first most prevalent solid tumors in primary central nervous system, certain single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may be related to increased glioma risk, and have implications in carcinogenesis. The present case-control study was carried out to elucidate how common variants contribute to glioma susceptibility. Ten candidate tagging SNPs (tSNPs) were selected from seven genes whose polymorphisms have been proven by classical literatures and reliable databases to be tended to relate with gliomas, and with the minor allele frequency (MAF)>5% in the HapMap Asian population. The selected tSNPs were genotyped in 629 glioma patients and 645 controls from a Han Chinese population using the multiplexed SNP MassEXTEND assay calibrated. Two significant tSNPs in RTEL1 gene were observed to be associated with glioma risk (rs6010620, P=0.0016, OR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.11-1.56; rs2297440, P=0.001, OR: 1.33, 95% CI: 1.12-1.58) by ?2 test. It was identified the genotype "GG" of rs6010620 acted as the protective genotype for glioma (OR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.31-0.7; P=0.0002), while the genotype "CC" of rs2297440 as the protective genotype in glioma (OR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.31-0.71; P=0.0003). Furthermore, haplotype "GCT" in RTEL1 gene was found to be associated with risk of glioma (OR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.57-0.86; Fisher's P=0.0005; Pearson's P=0.0005), and haplotype "ATT" was detected to be associated with risk of glioma (OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.12-1.57; Fisher's P=0.0013; Pearson's P=0.0013). Two single variants, the genotypes of "GG" of rs6010620 and "CC" of rs2297440 (rs6010620 and rs2297440) in the RTEL1 gene, together with two haplotypes of GCT and ATT, were identified to be associated with glioma development. And it might be used to evaluate the glioma development risks to screen the above RTEL1 tagging SNPs and haplotypes.

Project description:Genetic markers identifying women at an increased risk of developing breast cancer exist, yet the majority of inherited risk remains elusive. While numerous BRCA1 coding sequence mutations are associated with breast cancer risk, BRCA1 mutations account for less then 5% of breast cancer risk. Since 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) polymorphisms disrupting microRNA (miRNA) binding can be functional and can act as genetic markers of cancer risk, we tested the hypothesis that such polymorphisms in the 3'UTR of BRCA1 and haplotypes containing these functional polymorphisms may be associated with breast cancer risk. We sequenced the BRCA1 3'UTR from breast cancer patients to identify miRNA disrupting polymorphisms. We further evaluated haplotypes of this region including the identified 3'UTR variants in a large population of controls and breast cancer patients (n = 221) with known breast cancer subtypes and ethnicities. We identified three 3'UTR variants in BRCA1 that are polymorphic in breast cancer populations, and haplotype analysis including these variants revealed that breast cancer patients harbor five rare haplotypes not generally found among controls (9.50% for breast cancer chromosomes, 0.11% for control chromosomes, p = 0.0001). Three of these rare haplotypes contain the rs8176318 BRCA1 3'UTR functional variant. These haplotypes are not biomarkers for BRCA1 coding mutations, as they are found rarely in BRCA1 mutant breast cancer patients (1/129 patients = 0.78%). These rare BRCA1 haplotypes and 3'UTR SNPs may represent new genetic markers of breast cancer risk.

Project description:We propose that haplotyped loci with high heterozygosity can be useful in human identification, especially within families, if recombination is very low among the sites. Three or more SNPs extending over small molecular intervals (<10 KB) can be identified in the human genome to define miniature haplotypes with moderate levels of linkage disequilibrium. Properly selected, these mini-haplotypes (or minihaps) consist of multiple haplotype lineages (alleles) that have evolved from the ancestral human haplotype but show no evidence of recurring recombination, allowing each distinct haplotype to be equated with an allele, all copies of which are essentially identical by descent. Historic recombinants, representing rare events that have drifted to common frequencies over many generations, can be identified in some cases, they do not equate to frequently recurring recombination. We have identified examples in our data collected on various projects and present eight such mini-haplotypes comprised of informative SNPs. We also discuss the ideal characteristics and advantages of minihaps for human familial identification and ancestry inference, and compare them to other types of forensic markers in use and/or that have been proposed. We expect that it is possible to carry out a systematic search and identify a useful panel of mini-haplotypes, with even better properties than the examples presented here.

Project description:Yak (Bos grunniens) is an important domestic animal living in high-altitude plateaus. Due to inadequate disease prevention, each year, the yak industry suffers significant economic losses. The identification of causal genes that affect blood- and immunity-related cells could provide preliminary reference guidelines for the prevention of diseases in the population of yaks. The genome-wide association studies (GWASs) utilizing a single-marker or haplotype method were employed to analyze 15 hematological traits in the genome of 315 unrelated yaks. Single-marker GWASs identified a total of 43 significant SNPs, including 35 suggestive and eight genome-wide significant SNPs, associated with nine traits. Haplotype analysis detected nine significant haplotype blocks, including two genome-wide and seven suggestive blocks, associated with seven traits. The study provides data on the genetic variability of hematological traits in the yak. Five essential genes (GPLD1, EDNRA,APOB, HIST1H1E, and HIST1H2BI) were identified, which affect the HCT, HGB, RBC, PDW, PLT, and RDWSD traits and can serve as candidate genes for regulating hematological traits. The results provide a valuable reference to be used in the analysis of blood properties and immune diseases in the yak.
