Effect of paraoxonase1 gene polymorphism on carotid plaque and cerebral infarction in Hainan population

Objective:To investigate the effect of paraoxonase 1 gene polymorphism on carotid plaque stability with cerebral infarction in Hainan population.Methods:277 patients of caroticl plaque With cerebral infarction who underwent physical examination in a hospital in Hainan from 2015 to another awarding 2018 were selected as the experimental group and the 363 people who no cerebral infarction as the Analytical methods:control group.The clinical data analyzed.DNA was collected from peripheral blood of two groups of patients and genotyped by flight mass analytical methods.''AG and GG could be detected by rs3917538.The distribution frequencies of The three genotypes in The control group accorded with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.Results:The distribution frequencies of AA,AG and GG in the control group were 97(26.7%),175(48.2%)and 91(25.1%)respectively.In the experimental group,the distribution frequencies were 76(27.4%),136(49.1%)and 65(23.5%).There were no statistical differences among the three detection methods of co-dominant model,Dominant model and recessive model.There was no difference in the frequency of allele A and G between groups.Conclusion:Polymorphism of paraoxonase 1 gene rs3917538 has No significant effect on carotid plaque formation and cerebral infarction in Hainan population.The Supplementary sample size to add more SNP research sites for further study,It is expected to further Revral the relationship between PON1and carotial piaque complicatecl with cerebral infarction in Hainan.

Arahidopsis CHLOROPHYLLASE 1 protects young leaves from long-term photodamage by facilitating FtsH-mediated D1 degradation in photosystemⅡrepair

The proteolytic degradation of the photodamaged D1 core subunit during the photosystemⅡ(PSⅡ)repair cycle is well understood,but chlorophyll turnover during D1 degradation remains unclear.Here,we report that Arabidopsis thaliana CHLOROPHYLLASE 1(CLH1)plays important roles in the PSII repair process.The abundance of CLH1 and CLH2 peaks in young leaves and is induced by high-light exposure.Seedlings of clh1 single and clh1-1/2-2 double mutants display increased photoinhibition after long-term high-light exposure,whereas seedlings overexpressing CLH1 have enhanced light tolerance compared with the wild type.CLH1 is localized in the developing chloroplasts of young leaves and associates with the PSⅡ-dismantling complexes RCC1 and RC47,with a preference for the latter upon exposure to high light.Furthermore,degradation of damaged D1 protein is retarded in young clh1-1/2-2 leaves after 18-h highlight exposure but is rescued by the addition of recombinant CLH1 in vitro.Moreover,overexpression of CLH1 in a variegated mutant(var2~2)that lacks thylakoid protease FtsH2,with which CLH1 interacts,suppresses the variegation and restores D1 degradation.A var2-2 clh1-1/2-2triple mutant shows more severe variegation and seedling death.Taken together,these results establish CLH1 as a long-sought chlorophyll dephytylation enzyme that is involved in PSⅡrepair and functions in long-term adaptation of young leaves to high-light exposure by facilitating FtsH-mediated D1 degradation.
