The polymorphism of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase and genetic susceptibility to lead toxicity in Uighur and Yi population in China

目的 探讨我国维吾尔族、彝族人群δ 氨基乙酰丙酸脱水酶 (ALAD)基因多态性与铅遗传易感性的关系。方法 采用多聚酶链式反应 (PCR)和限制性内切酶 (MspI)限制性片断长度多态性(RFLP)方法分析 2 14名新疆维吾尔族人和 14 4名云南彝族人的ALAD基因多态性及等位基因分布 ;运用单因素和多因素分析探讨了维吾尔族和彝族人群ALAD基因多态性与血铅水平的相关关系 ,及影响血铅水平的因素。结果 维族人群ALAD1和ALAD2 等位基因分布频率分别是 0 .91和 0 .0 9;彝族人群ALAD1和ALAD2 等位基因频率分别是 0 .98和 0 .0 2。维族人群的血铅均值为 (76± 4 ) μg/L ,血铅≥10 0 μg/L的比例为 2 5 .7% ;彝族人群的血铅均值为 (5 0± 16 ) μg/L ,血铅≥ 10 0 μg/L的比例为 6 .3%。未见本研究人群ALAD等位基因的多态性与血铅水平有相关关系。

Objective To investigate the polymorphism of δ aminolevulinic acid dehydratase(ALAD) and the genetic susceptibility to lead toxicity in Uighur and Yi population in China. Methods The ALAD genotypes were determined by PCR and Msp restriction fragment length polymorphism techniques in 214 Uighur individuals from Xinjiang autonomous region and 144 Yi individuals from Yunnan province.The correlation between the polymorphism of ALAD and blood lead levels,and the factors affecting the latter were explored. Results The frequencies of the allele ALAD 1 and ALAD 2 in Uighur are 0.91 and 0.09;and in Yi are 0.98 and 0.02 respectively.In Uighur the average blood lead level was (76±4)μg/L,and 25.7% individuals with blood lead level ≥100 μg/L.In Yi the average blood lead level was (50±16)μg/L,and 6.3% individuals with blood lead level ≥100 μg/L.However,no statistic correlation between the distribution of ALAD alleles and the blood lead level was found in both populations. Conclusion The genetic susceptibility of ALAD polymorphism to lead toxicity may exhibit in a lead dose dependent manner.
