Studies have also demonstrated that cerebral infarction does not occur often in pre-menopausal women. It has been, therefore, assumed that sex plays a role in R219K polymorphism of ABCA1 gene and cerebral infarction. OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between lipid metabolism-correlated R219K polymorphism of ABCA1 gene, risk factors of cerebral infarction and lipid level, and to determine whether there were significant differences in gender between R219K polymorphism of ABCA1 gene and cerebral infarction. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A multicentral and non-randomized, controlled study based on gene polymorphism was performed at the Chinese National Human Genome Center, and lipid concentrations were measured at Beijing Xuanwu Hospital. Patients with cerebral infarction and healthy subjects were enrolled from eight hospitals of six provinces of China between October 2002 and December 2004. PARTICIPANTS: There were 177 patients in the cerebral infarction group, including 119 males and 58 females, with a mean age of (60 -+ 13) years, and 234 healthy subjects in the normal control group, including 79 males and 155 females, with a mean age of (58 ± 12) years. METHODS: R219K polymorphism of the ABCA1 gene was detected using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, and blood lipid concentrations were simultaneously measured. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Genotype and allele frequency of R219K polymorphic site, and blood lipid concentrations. RESULTS: RR genotype and R allele frequency of males in the cerebral infarction were significantly greater than males in the normal control group [RR genotype: x2 = 5.305, OR (95% CO, 2.326 (1.120 4.828), P〈 0.05; R allele: x2= 4.219, OR (95% CO, 1.528 (1.019 2.292), P〈 0.05]. In addition, RR genotype and R allele frequency of males were significantly greater than females in the cerebral infarction group [RR genotype: x2= 5.172, OR (95% C/), 2.604 (1.120-6.057), P〈 0.05; R allele: x2= 4.818, OR (95% CO, 1.652 (1.053 2.589), P〈 0.05]. There were no significant differences between genotype and lipid concentrations between the two groups (P〉 0.05). CONCLUSION: The RR genotype of ABCA1 R219K might be associated with onset of cerebral infarction in males, but blood lipid concentrations do not relate to R219K polymorphism.展开更多

Results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the distributions of the -455G/A genotype and allele frequency between the Uygurs and the Han. Plasma fibrinogen levels in cerebral infarction patients among the Uygurs and the Han were higher than those among healthy subjects. In particular, the frequencies of the -455G/A AA and -148C/T TT genotypes were significantly higher than in healthy subjects. Individuals carrying the A or T allele had a higher incidence of cerebral infarction compared with those carrying the G or C allele. Our experimental findings indicate that the -148C/T and -455G/A polymorphisms are associated with cerebral infarction in Xinjiang Uygur and Han Chinese subjects. The susceptibility- conferring alleles are -148T and -455A, and the susceptibility-conferring genotype is -455G/A + AA.展开更多

Methods Genetic association studies on evaluating the β-fibrinogen gene -455G/A polymorphism and cerebral infarction involving Chinese population published before December 2005 were collected from database of PubMed, EMBASE, and CNKI. All the data in literature were abstracted based on the defined selection criteria by two independent investigators. Publication bias was tested by funnel plot and the odd ratios of all studies were combined dependent on the result of heterogeneity test among the individual studies. The software Review Manager (Version 4.2) was used for meta-analysis. Results Eleven studies including 1405 patients and 1600 controls met the selection criteria. There was no publication bias in 11 reviewed studies. Heterogeneity test of reviewed studies showed statistically significant differences (χ^2=24.58, P=0.006) among the ORs of individual studies. The combined OR of 11 studies of susceptibility to cerebral infarction in –455A allele carriers compared with the -455G/G wild homozygotes was 1.33 (95%CI 1.04-1.71, P=0.02). In the patients with cerebral infarction in 6 studies, the summarized average plasma fibrinogen level of allele A carrier was 0.29 g/L (95%CI 0.14-0.44, P=0.0002) higher than that of -455G/G homozygous ones. Conclusions β-fibrinogen gene -455G/A polymorphism might contribute to susceptibility of cerebral infarction in Chinese population; allele A increases the individual susceptibility to the disease.展开更多

OBJECTIVE: To explore the frequency distribution of Fg β- 148C/T gene polymorphism and its relationship with plasma Fg levels in patients with cerebral infarction. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Case control experiment of gene polymorphism was performed at the Central Laboratory of Qingdao University Medical College from January 2003 to June 2004. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 88 patients with cerebral infarction were recruited from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University Medical College, including 52 males and 36 females, averaging (61±14) years of age In addition, 80 healthy cases served as the control group, comprising 48 males and 32 females, with an average age of (58 ± 12) years. METHODS: Blood DNA was extracted, and electrophoresis results were observed using an ultraviolet single photon image system. The frequency distribution of Fg β -148C/T was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Plasma Fg levels were measured by cerebral infarction time. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Plasma Fg β -148C/T gene polymorphism and plasma Fg levels in patients with cerebral infarction. RESULTS: The frequency of the T allele, and plasma Fg levels in CC, CT, and CC+CT genotype subgroup, were significantly greater in the cerebral infraction group, compared with the control group (P 〈 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the TT genotype subgroup and the control group (P 〉 0.05). The plasma Fg levels in the CT, TT, and CT+TT genotype groups were significantly greater than the CC genotype group (P 〈 0.05). However, in the control group, plasma Fg levels in the TT genotype subgroup were significantly greater than the remaining genotype subgroups (P 〈 0.05). CONCLUSION: Plasma Fg β -148C/T gene polymorphism is an important hereditary factor for differences in plasma Fg levels. The T allele plays a crucial role in influencing plasma Fg levels in cerebral infarction. Fg β - 148C/T may be a susceptibility factor for cerebral infarction.展开更多

A case-control association analysis was performed on a total of 490 MI patients(MI group) and 929 normal subjects(NC group). Sequenom Mass Array and Taqman genotyping technique were used to analyze the tag single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) in the genes encoding IL-33, ST2, and IL-1Ra P(rs11792633, rs1041973 and rs4624606). The results showed that the frequencies of rs4624606 genotypes AA, TT, AT were 0.031, 0.647, 0.322 in MI group and 0.026, 0.712, 0.263 in NC group, and the allele frequencies of A and T were 0.192, 0.808 in MI group and 0.157, 0.843 in NC group. There were significant differences in rs4624606 genotypes and allele frequencies between MI group and NC group(P〈0.05). For rs11792633, the allele frequencies of C and T were 0.45, 0.55 in MI group and 0.454, 0.546 in NC group with no significant differences found between the two groups. Compared with genotype CC+TC, rs11792633 genotype TT had an increased risk of hypertension(P〈0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the frequencies of rs11792633 genotypes between the two groups. No significant differences were noted in the frequencies of rs1041973 genotype and allele between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that rs4624606 genotypes AT and AA+AT were both significantly associated with MI(AT: OR=1.325, P=0.029, 95% CI=1.03–1.705; AA+AT: OR=1.316, P=0.028, 95% CI=1.03–1.681) after factors such as age, gender, smoking, drinking, body mass index(BMI), triglyceride(TG) and cholesterol were adjusted. Those carrying rs4624606 genotype AT or AA+AT had an increased risk of MI. No associations were found between the polymorphisms of the other two loci with MI. It was concluded that, in the IL33/ST2 signal pathway, the A allele of rs4624606 polymorphism of IL-1Ra P gene is a potential independent risk factor for MI, and the genotypes AA+AT and AT are associated with the incidence of MI.展开更多

Methods Total 300 subjects were allocated into three different groups: Groupl, 100 patients who have primary hypertension; Group 2, 100 patients who have primary hypertension with cerebral infarction; and control group, 100 healthy individuals. The genotypes of all subjects were determined by PCR-sequencing to analyze the four poly- morphisms at position - 152 (G-A), -20 (A-C), - 18 (C-T), and -6 (A-G) in the promoter region of AGT. Results The frequen- cies ofCT genotype of AGT-18 and T allele in Group 1 (P = 0.003, P = 0.004) and Group 2 (P = 0.002, P = 0.002) were both significantly higher than in healthy controls. The frequency of G allele of AGT-6 was significantly higher in Group 2 than in the control group (P = 0.016), while there is no significant difference between Group 1 and the control. Haplotype analysis revealed that H6 haplotype frequency which included -20C and -6G was significantly increased in Group 2 (P = 0.003) compared with the control group, while H5 haplotype frequency which included -20C and -18T was signifi- cantly increased in Group 1 (P = 0.006) versus the control. Conclusion The -20 (A-C) and - 18 (C-T) of the AGT may play an important role in pathogenesis of primary hypertension; and -20 (A-C), -18 (C-T), and -6 (A-G) may be the genetic risk factors for the onset of primary hypertension with cerebral infarction in the Li nationality of Halnan, China.展开更多

Methods: The CETP gene rs1532624 and rs289741 in 95 patients with ACI and 177 healthy subjects were genotyped by Mass ARRAY mass spectrometry. Each locus genotype and allele frequency distributions were compared. Results: The difference of allele frequency distribution between the rs1532624(χ~2=1.723, P=0.189) and rs289741(χ~2=2.466, P=0.116) were not statistically significant. The frequency distribution of rs1532624 genotype between the cerebral infarction group and healthy control group was statistically significant(χ~2=7.096, P=0.029), while rs289741 genotype frequency distribution between the two groups was not statistically significant(χ~2=2.906, P=0.234). Conclusion: ACI have a positive correlation with rs1532624 polymorphism, and AA genotype may be susceptible factors of ACI.展开更多

OBJECTIVE: Using PCR methodology and agarose electrophoresis to detect PAI-1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism in patients with recurrent cerebral infarction in the North Jiangsu Province of China, and to compare results with healthy subjects and patients with first-occurrence cerebral infarction in the same region. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Non-randomized, concurrent, control trial. A total of 122 cerebral infarction patients were admitted to Xuzhou Medical College Hospital's Department of Neurology and Xuzhou Central Hospital's Department of Neurology between July 2003 and August 2006. PARTICIPANTS: The patients consisted of 63 males and 59 females, aged (62 ± 10) years. They were divided into first-occurrence (n = 58) and recurrence (n = 64) groups. In addition, 50 healthy subjects that underwent physical examination in the outpatient department, including 26 males and 24 females, aged (60 ±12) years, were selected as controls. METHODS AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: PAl-1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism was detected and analyzed using PCR methodology and agarose electrophoresis. RESULTS: Significant differences were determined in terms of genotypic frequency and allele frequency of PAI-1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism, in patients with first-occurrence or recurrent cerebral infarction, when compared with healthy subjects (P 〈 0.05). There was, however, no significant difference between the first-occurrence and recurrence groups (P 〉 0.05). CONCLUSION: PAl- 1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism is genetic risk factor for cerebral infarction in China. However, it may be associated with recurrence of cerebral infarction in patients from the North Jiangsu Province of China.展开更多

The present study detected and sequenced ApoE polymorphisms of 90 patients with cerebrovascular diseases (58 cases of cerebral infarction and 32 cases of intracerebral hemorrhage), and 50 normal people of Naxi nationality from Yunnan province, China. The populations were used to analyze the relationship of ApoE polymorphisms with cerebral infarction and intracerebral hemorrhage. Results showed an association between ApoE gene polymorphism and the onset of cerebral infarction, and a possibility that the ε4 allele is a susceptibility locus for the risk of cerebral infarction. However, there was no evidence of a relationship between the ApoE gene polymorphism and cerebral hemorrhage.展开更多

The serum Lp(a) level, by means of ELISA, the polymorphism of apo(a) protein, by SDS PAGE/Western blotting combined with silver staining assays, and the sequence polymorphisms in 5’ control region, the first exon and intron of apo(a)gene, by PCR SSCP/AFLP assays, were detected in 85 healthy controls and 42 cases of cortical cerebral infarction. Results. The serum Lp(a) level was markedly higher in the patients(152.59±3.41 mg/L)than that in the controls(56.21±3.67 mg/L)(t=4.15, P<0.001), even between the subjects with the same apo(a) phenotype. The frequency of low molecular weight phenotype was significantly higher in the patients than that in the controls(0.5238 vs. 0.2941). There were 2 sites of sequence variance in the 5’ control region of apo(a) gene in our studied population, which were of significant difference between patients and controls, and were related to the variation of serum Lp(a) level. Conclusion. Our study found that the low molecular weight phenotype of apo(a) was closely associated with cerebral infarction, suggested that the variation of serum Lp(a) level be determined by not only the size of apo(a) gene but also its sequence, which indicated that both the size and sequence of apo(a) are associated with the susceptibility to cerebral infarction.展开更多

In this study, ...Objective The results of studies on association between -148C/T polymorphism in promoter region of β3-fibrinogen gene and susceptibility to cerebral infarction in Chinese population are controversial. In this study, we summarize the results of published works in this field by a meta-analysis. Data sources Genetic association studies evaluating the β-fibdnogen gene -148C/T polymorphisms and cerebral infarction involving Chinese population published before December 2005 were collected from PubMed, EMBASE and CNKI. Study selection Case control studies involving unrelated, Han subjects aged from 18 to 80 years, and the internationally recognized diagnostic standard of cerebral infarction and genotype frequencies in control group consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were used. Publication bias was tested by funnel plot and the odds ratios of all studies were combined dependent on the result of heterogeneity test among the individual studies. The software Review Manager (Version 4.2) was used for meta-analysis. Results Eleven studies including 1223 patients and 1433 controls met the selection criteria. There was no heterogeneity among the odds ratios (ORs) of individual studies (Х^2=17.82, P=0.06). The combined OFt of susceptibility to cerebral infarction in -148T allele carriers compared to the wild homozygote was 1.32 (95%CI 1.12 to 1.55, P=-0.0008). In the patients with cerebral infarction, the average plasma fibrinogen level of allele T carrier was 0.42 g/L (95% CI 0.29 to 0.54, P〈0.001), higher than that of -148C/C homozygous ones. Conclusions β3-fibrinogen gene -148C/T polymorphism might contribute to susceptibility to cerebral infarction in Han Chinese. To reach a definitive conclusion, further gene to gene and gene to environment interactions studies on β3-fibrinogen polymorphisms and cerebral infarction with large sample size are required.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1) gene influences atherosclerosis. Studies have also demonstrated that cerebral infarction does not occur often in pre-menopausal women. It has been, therefore, assumed that sex plays a role in R219K polymorphism of ABCA1 gene and cerebral infarction. OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between lipid metabolism-correlated R219K polymorphism of ABCA1 gene, risk factors of cerebral infarction and lipid level, and to determine whether there were significant differences in gender between R219K polymorphism of ABCA1 gene and cerebral infarction. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A multicentral and non-randomized, controlled study based on gene polymorphism was performed at the Chinese National Human Genome Center, and lipid concentrations were measured at Beijing Xuanwu Hospital. Patients with cerebral infarction and healthy subjects were enrolled from eight hospitals of six provinces of China between October 2002 and December 2004. PARTICIPANTS: There were 177 patients in the cerebral infarction group, including 119 males and 58 females, with a mean age of (60 -+ 13) years, and 234 healthy subjects in the normal control group, including 79 males and 155 females, with a mean age of (58 ± 12) years. METHODS: R219K polymorphism of the ABCA1 gene was detected using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, and blood lipid concentrations were simultaneously measured. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Genotype and allele frequency of R219K polymorphic site, and blood lipid concentrations. RESULTS: RR genotype and R allele frequency of males in the cerebral infarction were significantly greater than males in the normal control group [RR genotype: x2 = 5.305, OR (95% CO, 2.326 (1.120 4.828), P〈 0.05; R allele: x2= 4.219, OR (95% CO, 1.528 (1.019 2.292), P〈 0.05]. In addition, RR genotype and R allele frequency of males were significantly greater than females in the cerebral infarction group [RR genotype: x2= 5.172, OR (95% C/), 2.604 (1.120-6.057), P〈 0.05; R allele: x2= 4.818, OR (95% CO, 1.652 (1.053 2.589), P〈 0.05]. There were no significant differences between genotype and lipid concentrations between the two groups (P〉 0.05). CONCLUSION: The RR genotype of ABCA1 R219K might be associated with onset of cerebral infarction in males, but blood lipid concentrations do not relate to R219K polymorphism.

文摘We sought to investigate the correlation between the -455G/A and -148C/T polymorphisms of the β-fibrinogen gene and plasma fibrinogen levels in patients with cerebral infarction and in healthy subjects among the Xinjiang Uygur and Han Chinese populations, by using polymerase chain reaction-restriction enzyme digestion analysis. Results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the distributions of the -455G/A genotype and allele frequency between the Uygurs and the Han. Plasma fibrinogen levels in cerebral infarction patients among the Uygurs and the Han were higher than those among healthy subjects. In particular, the frequencies of the -455G/A AA and -148C/T TT genotypes were significantly higher than in healthy subjects. Individuals carrying the A or T allele had a higher incidence of cerebral infarction compared with those carrying the G or C allele. Our experimental findings indicate that the -148C/T and -455G/A polymorphisms are associated with cerebral infarction in Xinjiang Uygur and Han Chinese subjects. The susceptibility- conferring alleles are -148T and -455A, and the susceptibility-conferring genotype is -455G/A + AA.

Conclusions β-fibrinogen gene -455G/A polymorphism might contribute to susceptibility of cerebral infarction in Chinese population; allele A increases the individual susceptibility to the disease.
文摘BACKGROUND: Plasma fibrinogen (Fg) β-148C/T gene polymorphism is a risk factor for ischemic angiopathy. OBJECTIVE: To explore the frequency distribution of Fg β- 148C/T gene polymorphism and its relationship with plasma Fg levels in patients with cerebral infarction. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Case control experiment of gene polymorphism was performed at the Central Laboratory of Qingdao University Medical College from January 2003 to June 2004. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 88 patients with cerebral infarction were recruited from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University Medical College, including 52 males and 36 females, averaging (61±14) years of age In addition, 80 healthy cases served as the control group, comprising 48 males and 32 females, with an average age of (58 ± 12) years. METHODS: Blood DNA was extracted, and electrophoresis results were observed using an ultraviolet single photon image system. The frequency distribution of Fg β -148C/T was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Plasma Fg levels were measured by cerebral infarction time. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Plasma Fg β -148C/T gene polymorphism and plasma Fg levels in patients with cerebral infarction. RESULTS: The frequency of the T allele, and plasma Fg levels in CC, CT, and CC+CT genotype subgroup, were significantly greater in the cerebral infraction group, compared with the control group (P 〈 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the TT genotype subgroup and the control group (P 〉 0.05). The plasma Fg levels in the CT, TT, and CT+TT genotype groups were significantly greater than the CC genotype group (P 〈 0.05). However, in the control group, plasma Fg levels in the TT genotype subgroup were significantly greater than the remaining genotype subgroups (P 〈 0.05). CONCLUSION: Plasma Fg β -148C/T gene polymorphism is an important hereditary factor for differences in plasma Fg levels. The T allele plays a crucial role in influencing plasma Fg levels in cerebral infarction. Fg β - 148C/T may be a susceptibility factor for cerebral infarction.

文摘This study investigated the relationship between IL-33/ST2 signal pathway gene polymorphisms and myocardial infarction(MI) in Han Chinese. A case-control association analysis was performed on a total of 490 MI patients(MI group) and 929 normal subjects(NC group). Sequenom Mass Array and Taqman genotyping technique were used to analyze the tag single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) in the genes encoding IL-33, ST2, and IL-1Ra P(rs11792633, rs1041973 and rs4624606). The results showed that the frequencies of rs4624606 genotypes AA, TT, AT were 0.031, 0.647, 0.322 in MI group and 0.026, 0.712, 0.263 in NC group, and the allele frequencies of A and T were 0.192, 0.808 in MI group and 0.157, 0.843 in NC group. There were significant differences in rs4624606 genotypes and allele frequencies between MI group and NC group(P〈0.05). For rs11792633, the allele frequencies of C and T were 0.45, 0.55 in MI group and 0.454, 0.546 in NC group with no significant differences found between the two groups. Compared with genotype CC+TC, rs11792633 genotype TT had an increased risk of hypertension(P〈0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the frequencies of rs11792633 genotypes between the two groups. No significant differences were noted in the frequencies of rs1041973 genotype and allele between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that rs4624606 genotypes AT and AA+AT were both significantly associated with MI(AT: OR=1.325, P=0.029, 95% CI=1.03–1.705; AA+AT: OR=1.316, P=0.028, 95% CI=1.03–1.681) after factors such as age, gender, smoking, drinking, body mass index(BMI), triglyceride(TG) and cholesterol were adjusted. Those carrying rs4624606 genotype AT or AA+AT had an increased risk of MI. No associations were found between the polymorphisms of the other two loci with MI. It was concluded that, in the IL33/ST2 signal pathway, the A allele of rs4624606 polymorphism of IL-1Ra P gene is a potential independent risk factor for MI, and the genotypes AA+AT and AT are associated with the incidence of MI.

文摘Objective To investigate the relationship of four single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotypes in the angiotensinogen (AGT) gene to the primary hypertension with or without cerebral infarction in the Li nationality of Hainan, China. Methods Total 300 subjects were allocated into three different groups: Groupl, 100 patients who have primary hypertension; Group 2, 100 patients who have primary hypertension with cerebral infarction; and control group, 100 healthy individuals. The genotypes of all subjects were determined by PCR-sequencing to analyze the four poly- morphisms at position - 152 (G-A), -20 (A-C), - 18 (C-T), and -6 (A-G) in the promoter region of AGT. Results The frequen- cies ofCT genotype of AGT-18 and T allele in Group 1 (P = 0.003, P = 0.004) and Group 2 (P = 0.002, P = 0.002) were both significantly higher than in healthy controls. The frequency of G allele of AGT-6 was significantly higher in Group 2 than in the control group (P = 0.016), while there is no significant difference between Group 1 and the control. Haplotype analysis revealed that H6 haplotype frequency which included -20C and -6G was significantly increased in Group 2 (P = 0.003) compared with the control group, while H5 haplotype frequency which included -20C and -18T was signifi- cantly increased in Group 1 (P = 0.006) versus the control. Conclusion The -20 (A-C) and - 18 (C-T) of the AGT may play an important role in pathogenesis of primary hypertension; and -20 (A-C), -18 (C-T), and -6 (A-G) may be the genetic risk factors for the onset of primary hypertension with cerebral infarction in the Li nationality of Halnan, China.

文摘BACKGROUND: Many international studies have shown that plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAl-l) 4G/5G promoter polymorphism does not increase the risk for cerebral infarction. OBJECTIVE: Using PCR methodology and agarose electrophoresis to detect PAI-1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism in patients with recurrent cerebral infarction in the North Jiangsu Province of China, and to compare results with healthy subjects and patients with first-occurrence cerebral infarction in the same region. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Non-randomized, concurrent, control trial. A total of 122 cerebral infarction patients were admitted to Xuzhou Medical College Hospital's Department of Neurology and Xuzhou Central Hospital's Department of Neurology between July 2003 and August 2006. PARTICIPANTS: The patients consisted of 63 males and 59 females, aged (62 ± 10) years. They were divided into first-occurrence (n = 58) and recurrence (n = 64) groups. In addition, 50 healthy subjects that underwent physical examination in the outpatient department, including 26 males and 24 females, aged (60 ±12) years, were selected as controls. METHODS AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: PAl-1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism was detected and analyzed using PCR methodology and agarose electrophoresis. RESULTS: Significant differences were determined in terms of genotypic frequency and allele frequency of PAI-1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism, in patients with first-occurrence or recurrent cerebral infarction, when compared with healthy subjects (P 〈 0.05). There was, however, no significant difference between the first-occurrence and recurrence groups (P 〉 0.05). CONCLUSION: PAl- 1 4G/5G promoter polymorphism is genetic risk factor for cerebral infarction in China. However, it may be associated with recurrence of cerebral infarction in patients from the North Jiangsu Province of China.

文摘Currently it is not well known whether apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is a genetic susceptibility factor for cerebrovascular diseases in the Chinese Naxi population. The present study detected and sequenced ApoE polymorphisms of 90 patients with cerebrovascular diseases (58 cases of cerebral infarction and 32 cases of intracerebral hemorrhage), and 50 normal people of Naxi nationality from Yunnan province, China. The populations were used to analyze the relationship of ApoE polymorphisms with cerebral infarction and intracerebral hemorrhage. Results showed an association between ApoE gene polymorphism and the onset of cerebral infarction, and a possibility that the ε4 allele is a susceptibility locus for the risk of cerebral infarction. However, there was no evidence of a relationship between the ApoE gene polymorphism and cerebral hemorrhage.
文摘Objective. The present study aimed to elucidating the correlation of apolipoprotein(a)[apo(a)] with cerebral infarction at the levels of molecule and protein. Methods. The serum Lp(a) level, by means of ELISA, the polymorphism of apo(a) protein, by SDS PAGE/Western blotting combined with silver staining assays, and the sequence polymorphisms in 5’ control region, the first exon and intron of apo(a)gene, by PCR SSCP/AFLP assays, were detected in 85 healthy controls and 42 cases of cortical cerebral infarction. Results. The serum Lp(a) level was markedly higher in the patients(152.59±3.41 mg/L)than that in the controls(56.21±3.67 mg/L)(t=4.15, P<0.001), even between the subjects with the same apo(a) phenotype. The frequency of low molecular weight phenotype was significantly higher in the patients than that in the controls(0.5238 vs. 0.2941). There were 2 sites of sequence variance in the 5’ control region of apo(a) gene in our studied population, which were of significant difference between patients and controls, and were related to the variation of serum Lp(a) level. Conclusion. Our study found that the low molecular weight phenotype of apo(a) was closely associated with cerebral infarction, suggested that the variation of serum Lp(a) level be determined by not only the size of apo(a) gene but also its sequence, which indicated that both the size and sequence of apo(a) are associated with the susceptibility to cerebral infarction.

文摘Objective The results of studies on association between -148C/T polymorphism in promoter region of β3-fibrinogen gene and susceptibility to cerebral infarction in Chinese population are controversial. In this study, we summarize the results of published works in this field by a meta-analysis. Data sources Genetic association studies evaluating the β-fibdnogen gene -148C/T polymorphisms and cerebral infarction involving Chinese population published before December 2005 were collected from PubMed, EMBASE and CNKI. Study selection Case control studies involving unrelated, Han subjects aged from 18 to 80 years, and the internationally recognized diagnostic standard of cerebral infarction and genotype frequencies in control group consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were used. Publication bias was tested by funnel plot and the odds ratios of all studies were combined dependent on the result of heterogeneity test among the individual studies. The software Review Manager (Version 4.2) was used for meta-analysis. Results Eleven studies including 1223 patients and 1433 controls met the selection criteria. There was no heterogeneity among the odds ratios (ORs) of individual studies (Х^2=17.82, P=0.06). The combined OFt of susceptibility to cerebral infarction in -148T allele carriers compared to the wild homozygote was 1.32 (95%CI 1.12 to 1.55, P=-0.0008). In the patients with cerebral infarction, the average plasma fibrinogen level of allele T carrier was 0.42 g/L (95% CI 0.29 to 0.54, P〈0.001), higher than that of -148C/C homozygous ones. Conclusions β3-fibrinogen gene -148C/T polymorphism might contribute to susceptibility to cerebral infarction in Han Chinese. To reach a definitive conclusion, further gene to gene and gene to environment interactions studies on β3-fibrinogen polymorphisms and cerebral infarction with large sample size are required.
