Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and DNA sequencing were used to genotype the APOC3(-455T>C) variants.RESULTS:After adjusting for age,gender,and bodymass index,TC and CC genotypes were found to increase the susceptibility to NAFLD compared to the TT genotype,with adjusted odds ratios(ORs) of 1.77(95%CI:1.16-2.72) and 2.80(95%CI:1.64-4.79),respectively. Further stratification analysis indicated that carriers of the CC genotype was more susceptible to insulin resistance(IR) than those of the TT genotype,with an OR of 3.24(95%CI:1.52-6.92). The CC genotype also was associated with a significantly higher risk of hypertension,hypertriglyceridemia,and low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(hDL)(P < 0.05). No association was found between the APOC3(-455T>C) polymorphism and obesity,impaired glucose tolerance,hyperuricemia,hypercholesterolemia,or high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL)(P > 0.05).CONCLUSION:APOC3(-455T>C) genetic variation is involved in the susceptibility to developing NAFLD,IR,hypertension,hypertriglyceridemia,and low hDL in the Southern Chinese han population.展开更多
