ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship among the angiotensinogen (AGT)gene T174M,M235T polymorphisma,blood glucose level and atherosclerotic cerebral infarction.Methods The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymor-phism (PCR-RFLP)method was adopted to detecte the gene polymorphisms of AGT gene 174,235 sites and the fully automatic bi-ochemical analyzer was used to detect the biochemical indexes of GLU,etc.in 396 patients with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction and 360 normal controls.Results The GLU level in the patients of the ACI group carrying genotype TT and TM at AGT gene T174M site was higher than that in the normal control group with statistical differences(P 0.05);the glucose level in the patients carrying genotypes MM,MT and TT at M235T site in the ACI group was higher than that in the normal group,and the difference was statistically significant(P0.05 ).Conclusion No correlation is found among AGT gene T174M,M235T polymorphism,blood glucose level and atherosclerotic cerebral infarction;hyperglycemia is one of the risk factors of atherosclerotic cerebral infarction occurrence.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the relationship among genetic polymorphism of angiotension Ⅱ type 1 re-ceptor(AT1 R) A1166-C, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D), aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2)-344T/C and hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy.Methods Polymerase chain reaction-re-striction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay was used to detect the genotypes of AT1 R A1166-C ,ACE (I/O) ,CYP11B2 -344T/C in 86 cases of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy and 175 cases of normal control.Results There was 18 combined types in hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy cases and normal control cases.Compared to AT1R-AA + ACE-Ⅱ + CYP11B2-TT, Odds ratios (OR) of AT1R-AA + ACE-DO +CYP11B2-TC,AT1 R-AC + ACE-ID+CYP11B2-TC and AT1R-AC+ACE-DD+CYP11B2-TC are 7.289,5.315 and 5.694 respectively.There was no statistical significance among the others.Conclusion In all 18 kinds of combined types, AT1 R-AA + ACE-DO + CYP11B2-TC,AT1R-AC+ACE-ID+CYP11B2-TC and AT1 R-AC + ACE-DD +CYP11B2-TC might increase the susceptibility of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy.It is possible that multigenes are interacted in the etiology of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To Investigate the relationship between an in sertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism for angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and A(1166)C Polymorphism of angiotensin type 1 receptor(AT 1R) genes in patients with vertebro basilar insufficiency(VBI). Methods In this study, We examined 120 patients with VBI and 146 normal controls. The genotype for I/D of ACE and A(1166)C of AT 1R was assessed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and refrained fragment length polymorphism(RFLP), respectively. Then we compared the genotype frequency distribution among subjects.Results As a whole, there was significant difference in the distribution of ACE (I/I, I/D and D/D) and AT 1R (A/A and A/C), respectively. D allele frequency was higher in patients compared with the normal controls. Our study also revealed that Ⅱ AA and DD AA genotype frequency in VBI was higher than that in the normal controls.Conclusion The D allele for ACE and C(1166) allele of AT 1R may correlated with VBI.Ⅱ genotype for ACE and AA genotype had a positive con influence on the VBI. The affection of DD AA genotype on VBI was negative.
