RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Two new SNPs have been recently associated to Alzheimer's disease in African American populations: FCGRIIB rs1050501 C/T, and PILRA rs1859788 A/G. The risk of Alzheimer's disease in FCGRIIB C and PILRA A allele carriers is three times higher than in non-carriers. However, the association between these and other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has not been assessed. METHODS: Linkage disequilibrium analysis, with r= 0.8 as a threshold value, was used to impute new candidate SNPs, on genomic data from both genes in 26 populations worldwide (n= 2504) from the 1000Genomes database. RESULTS: Four SNPs (rs13376485, rs3767640, rs3767639 and rs3767641) were linked to rs1050501 and one (rs2405442) to rs1859788 in the whole sample. CONCLUSIONS: Five novel SNPs could be associated with Alzheimer's disease susceptibility and play a causal role, even if none of them are exon variants since their potential roles in the regulation of gene expression.


ANTECEDENTES: Recientemente se han asociado dos nuevos polimorfismos de un solo nucleótido (SNP) a la enfermedad de Alzheimer en poblaciones afroamericanas: FCGRIIB rs1050501 C/T, y PILRA rs1859788 A/G. El riesgo de enfermedad de Alzheimer en los portadores de los alelos FCGRIIB C y PILRA A es tres veces mayor que en los no portadores. Sin embargo, no se ha evaluado la asociación entre estos y otros SNP. MÉTODOS: Se utilizó el análisis de desequilibrio de ligamiento, con r2= 0,8 como valor umbral, para imputar nuevos SNPs candidatos, sobre datos genómicos de ambos genes en 26 poblaciones de todo el mundo (n= 2504) de la base de datos 1000Genomes. RESULTADOS: Cuatro SNPs (rs13376485, rs3767640, rs3767639 y rs3767641) se vincularon al rs1050501 y uno (rs2405442) al rs1859788 en toda la muestra. CONCLUSIONES: Cinco nuevos SNP podrían estar asociados con la susceptibilidad a la enfermedad de Alzheimer y desempeñar un papel causal, aunque ninguno de ellos sea una variante de exón, dado su papel potencial en la regulación de la expresión génica.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND:A large number of domestic and international documents have confirmed that elevated interleukin-1β is associated with primary frozen shoulder.Interleukin-1B gene polymorphisms can affect the transcription and protein expression of interleukin 1β-related genes,resulting in altered levels of cytokines in vivo,and thus altering the incidence of primary frozen shoulder.Through the study of interleukin-1B gene polymorphism and susceptibility to primary frozen shoulder,this study aimed to explore new breakthroughs in the pathogenesis of primary frozen shoulder from the perspective of molecular biology,and to search for susceptibility genes of primary frozen shoulder. OBJECTIVE:To explore the association between linkage disequilibrium of three gene loci in interleukin-1B gene and susceptibility to primary frozen shoulder. METHODS:A case-control study was conducted.There were two groups in this study.One group consisted of 184 patients with primary frozen shoulder,while the other group included 260 healthy controls.The genotypes of interleukin-1B gene loci-511C/T(rs16944),+3954C/T(rs1143634),and-31C/T(rs1143627)were detected by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism.The correlation between the probability of linkage disequilibrium and haplotypes and the risk of primary frozen shoulder disease was compared and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that the proportion of CT genotypes at rs1143634 and rs1143627 sites increased significantly in the primary frozen shoulder.Linkage disequilibrium analysis showed that rs16944,rs1143634 and rs1143627 tended to be balanced in the control group(D'value<0.1),while there was a certain degree of linkage disequilibrium at rs1143627 and rs1143634 sites in the primary frozen shoulder group(D'value=0.595).Haplotype TTT increased the risk of primary frozen shoulder by 6.66 times compared with CCT type(TTT,OR=6.66,95%CI=1.59-27.88,P=0.009 7).To conclude,there is a certain degree of linkage disequilibrium between interleukin-1B gene loci rs1143627and rs1143634 in patients with primary frozen shoulder;haplotype TTT formed by these three gene loci may increase the risk of developing primary frozen shoulder.

RESUMEN

Se ha sugerido que el haplotipo rs3749474T/rs4864548A del gen CLOCK aumentaría el riesgo de obesidad, pero se desconoce el patrón de variabilidad poblacional de estos alelos y del haplotipo. El objetivo de este estudio es determinar el nivel de ligamiento entre los alelos de riesgo rs3749474T y rs4864548A a partir de la base de datos 1000Genomes para confirmar la existencia del haplotipo TA de los polimorfismos rs3749474-rs4864548 del gen CLOCK y su frecuencia cinco macro poblaciones. Se analizó el desequilibrio de ligamiento y las frecuencias haplotípicas para 2504 individuos, de 26 poblaciones, utilizando el estadístico r y la prueba exacta de Fisher. Existe una alta frecuencia del haplotipo TA en Latinoamérica (44,8%), un alto desequilibrio de ligamiento (r= 0,92) a nivel mundial entre esos alelos, una alta diferenciación entre macro poblaciones y una alta homogeneidad al interior de ellas. La evidencia presentada permite sugerir la realización de posteriores estudios de asociación entre este haplotipo y el nivel de riesgo de obesidad y sobrepeso en poblaciones latinoamericanas.


It has been suggested that the rs3749474T/rs4864548A haplotype of the CLOCK gene increases the risk of obesity, but the population variability of these alleles and the haplotype is unknown. This research aims to determine the linkage between the rs3749474T and rs4864548A alleles from the database of 1000Genomes to confirm the existence of the TA haplotype polymorphisms of these alleles and their frequency in five macro populations. Linkage disequilibrium and haplotype frequencies for 2504 individuals from 26 populations were analyzed using the r statistic and Fisher's exact test. There is a high frequency of the TA haplotype in Latin America (44.8%), a high linkage disequilibrium (r2= 0.92) worldwide between these alleles, a high differentiation between macro populations, and a high homogeneity. The evidence warrants further studies on the association between this haplotype and the risk of obesity and overweight in Latin American populations.

RESUMEN

Objective:To analyze the results of ATP7B gene screening in neonates and explore the linkage disequilibrium between different mutation loci, providing a basis for the clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling of Wilson′s disease.Methods:A total of 12 619 newborns who were born in Women′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University during March 18 and December 30, 2022, including 6 605 male neonates and 6 014 female neonates, with birth weight of (3.44±0.56) kg, were retrospectively collected. The results of ATP7B gene screening in all newborns were analyzed.Next-generation sequencing technology was employed to detect the pathogenic loci of ATP7B gene, and the identified loci were verified using Sanger sequencing. PLINK 1.9 software was used to analyze the linkage disequilibrium of different mutation loci.Results:Among 12 619 neonates, 22 cases were diagnosed with 2-3 pathogenic mutations in the ATP7B gene (suspected positive). Among them, 20 cases were recalled for family verification, and 2 cases refused to recall. The verification results showed that 3 newborns had mutations of two loci respectively from their parents and were preliminarily diagnosed with Wilson′s disease, the other 17 neonates were carriers of the c.3316G>A/c.588C>A or c.1708-1G>C/c.1168A>G mutation loci arranged in a cis-acting manner from the father source or maternal source. A total of 249 pathogenic mutation carriers were detected (232 cases carrying 1 pathogenic mutation, and 17 cases carrying 2 pathogenic mutations), with a carrier rate of 1/51. Among them, the mutation c.2333G>T was most frequently detected (1/207), followed by c.2975C>T (1/421), c.2621C>T (1/742), c.2755C>G (1/971) and c.2605G>A (1/971). The results of linkage disequilibrium analysis in both c.3316G>A/c.588C>A and c.1708-1G>C/c.1168A>G showed that D ′=1, which showed complete linkage disequilibrium. Conclusion:The carrier rate of pathogenic mutations in the ATP7B gene is relatively high.Moreover, the c.3316G>A/c.588C>A and c.1708-1G>C/c.1168A>G pathogenic mutation loci are likely to be arranged in a cis-acting manner, highlighting the existence of linkage disequilibrium between the two groups of mutations. This finding provides important reference value for the clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling of Wilson disease.

RESUMEN

Abstract Background: Fat Mass and Obesity-related (FTO) has been one of the genes consistently related to common obesity. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in FTO have been linked with the IRX3 gene. Aim: This study was designed by testing the hypothesis that: i) common SNPs in FTO and IRX3 are associated with obesity and related disorders; ii) there is significant linkage disequilibrium between both genes. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out on the Colombian Caribbean Coast. Anthropometric and biochemical variables were measured, and obesity and metabolic disorders were diagnosed. Four SNPs were genotyped: 3 at FTO locus (rs17817449, rs8050136, rs9939609) and one at IRX3 locus (rs3751723). LD between these SNPs was estimated. A logistic regression model was applied to estimate associations. Results: A total of 792 subjects were included. FTO and IRX3 were not in LD (D'≤ 0.03; R2≤ 0.03). TT genotype (rs9939609) was found to be associated with waist circumference (p= 0.04; adj-p= 0.01), and IRX3 SNP with Body Weight Excess (BWE) (OR= 1.06, adj-p= 0.03). One FTO-IRX3 haplotype was associated with BWE (G-A-A-T, rs17817449-rs8050136-rs9939609-rs3751723; OR= 0.67, p= 0.04). The statistical significance of these relations continued after admixture adjustment for a three-hybrid population (p= 0.03). Conclusions: FTO was related to waist circumference, and IRX3 was associated with BWE in Latin American adults. This relation remained statistically significant after an adjustment for sex, age, and genetic ancestry was performed. Despite that these genes were not in LD, findings of a haplotype involving FTO-IRX3 suggest a gene-gene interaction associated with an increased risk of BWE.


Resumen Introducción: FTO (Fat Mass and Obesity-related) se ha relacionado de manera consistente con la obesidad. Recientemente, Polimorfismos de Nucleótido Único (SNP) en este gen se han relacionado con el gen IRX3. Objetivo: Probar la hipótesis de que: i) SNPs en FTO e IRX3 están asociados con la obesidad y trastornos relacionados; ii) existe desequilibrio de ligamiento (LD) significativo entre ambos genes. Métodos: se realizó un estudio transversal en la costa caribe colombiana. Se valoraron variables antropométricas y bioquímicas, la obesidad y trastornos metabólicos. Se genotipificaron 4 SNPs: 3 en FTO (rs17817449, rs8050136, rs9939609) y uno en IRX3 (rs3751723). Se estimó el LD entre estos SNPs. Se aplicó un modelo de regresión logística para estimar asociaciones. Resultados: Se incluyeron 792 sujetos. FTO e IRX3 no se encontraron en LD (D' ≤0.03; R2 ≤0.03). El genotipo TT (rs9939609) se encontró asociado con la circunferencia de la cintura (p= 0.04; adj-p= 0.01), y el SNP IRX3 con el Exceso de Peso (EP) (OR= 1.06, adj-p= 0.03). Se encontró un haplotipo FTO-IRX3 asociado con EP (G-A-A-T, rs17817449-rs8050136-rs9939609-rs3751723; OR= 0.67, p= 0.04). Esta asociación persistió después del ajuste para una población mixta (p= 0.03). Conclusiones: FTO se encontró asociado con la circunferencia de la cintura e IRX3 con EP en adultos latinoamericanos. Estas asociaciones persistieron tras el ajuste por sexo, edad y ascendencia genética. Aunque estos genes no estaban en LD, los hallazgos de un haplotipo entre FTO-IRX3 sugieren una interacción gen-gen asociada con un mayor riesgo de EP.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: Empirical patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD) can be used to increase the statistical power of genetic mapping. This study was carried out with the objective of verifying the efficacy of factor analysis (AF) applied to data sets of molecular markers of the SNP type, in order to identify linkage groups and haplotypes blocks. The SNPs data set used was derived from a simulation process of an F2 population, containing 2000 marks with information of 500 individuals. The estimation of the factorial loadings of FA was made in two ways, considering the matrix of distances between the markers (A) and considering the correlation matrix (R). The number of factors (k) to be used was established based on the graph scree-plot and based on the proportion of the total variance explained. Results indicated that matrices A and R lead to similar results. Based on the scree-plot we considered k equal to 10 and the factors interpreted as being representative of the bonding groups. The second criterion led to a number of factors equal to 50, and the factors interpreted as being representative of the haplotypes blocks. This showed the potential of the technique, making it possible to obtain results applicable to any type of population, helping or corroborating the interpretation of genomic studies. The study demonstrated that AF was able to identify patterns of association between markers, identifying subgroups of markers that reflect factor binding groups and also linkage disequilibrium groups.


RESUMO: Padrões empíricos de desequilíbrio de ligação (LD) podem ser utilizados para aumentar o poder estatístico do mapeamento genético. Este trabalho foi realizado com o objetivo de verificar a eficácia da análise de fatores (AF) aplicada a conjuntos de dados de marcadores moleculares do tipo SNP, visando identificar grupos de ligação e blocos de haplótipos. O conjunto de dados SNPs utilizado foi oriundo de um processo de simulação de uma população F2, contendo 2000 marcas com informações de 500 indivíduos. A estimação das cargas fatoriais (loadings) da AF foi feita de duas formas, considerando a matriz de distâncias entre os marcadores (A) e considerando a matriz de correlação (R). O número de fatores (k) a ser utilizado foi estabelecido com base no gráfico scree-plot e com base na proporção da variância total explicada. Os resultados indicam que as matrizes A e R conduzem a resultados similares. Com base no scree-plot considerou-se k igual a 10 e os fatores interpretados como sendo representativos dos grupos de ligação. O segundo critério conduziu a um número de fatores igual a 50, e os fatores interpretados como sendo representativos dos blocos de haplótipos. Isto mostra o potencial da técnica que permite obter resultados aplicáveis ​​a qualquer tipo de população, corroborando a interpretação de estudos genômicos. O trabalho demonstrou que a AF foi capaz de identificar padrões de associação entre marcadores, identificando subgrupos de marcadores que refletem grupos de ligação fatorial e também grupos de desequilíbrio de ligação.

RESUMEN

The aim of present study was to evaluate the linkage disequilibrium (LD) of p.R72P, PIN3 Ins16bp, p.P47S, p.R213R and r.13494g[a polymorphism of TP53 and their haplotypes association with oesophageal cancer risk in patients from Punjab, northwest India. A total of 466 samples, including 233 oesophageal cancer patients and 233 healthy individuals were analysed. Data analysis revealed the gender specific association. In female group, arginine–proline (RP) genotype (P = 0.08) and P allele (P = 0.07) of p.R72P polymorphism was marginally associated with increased risk of oesophageal cancer. A1A2 genotype (P = 0.06) and A2 allele (P = 0.07) of PIN3 Ins16bp polymorphism was marginally associated with decreased risk of oesophageal cancer in male group. A1A2–GA genotype combination (P = 0.04) of PIN3 and r.13494g[a polymorphisms was significantly associated with decreased risk of oesophageal cancer in male group. In female group, PP–GA genotype combination (P = 0.02) of p.R72P and r.13494g[a polymorphisms and RP–A1A1–GG genotype combination (P = 0.04) of p.R72P, PIN3 and r.13494g[a polymorphisms was significantly associated with increased risk of oesophageal cancer. We observed moderate LD between two intronic polymorphisms PIN3 Ins16bp and r.13494g[a (D0 = 0.90; r 2 = 0.68). Haplotype analysis revealed that none of the haplotype combination was associated with oesophageal cancer risk when both the genders were considered. Stratification on the basis of gender showed that P-A2-P-A-A haplotype of p.R72P, PIN3 Ins16bp, p.P47S, p.R213R and r.13494g[a polymorphisms was marginally associated with reduced oesophageal cancer risk in male group (P = 0.08). Replication of these findings in independent cohorts may be insightful for the role of TP53 in oesophageal cancer pathogenesis.

RESUMEN

The stromal antigen 3 (STAG3) gene, encoding a meiosis-specific cohesin component, is a strong candidate for causing male infertility, but little is known about this gene so far. We identified STAG3 in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) and normozoospermia in the Korean population. The coding regions and their intron boundaries of STAG3 were identified in 120 Korean men with spermatogenic impairments and 245 normal controls by using direct sequencing and haplotype analysis. A total of 30 sequence variations were identified in this study. Of the total, seven were exonic variants, 18 were intronic variants, one was in the 5'-UTR, and four were in the 3'-UTR. Pathogenic variations that directly caused NOA were not identified. However, two variants, c.3669+35C>G (rs1727130) and +198A>T (rs1052482), showed significant differences in the frequency between the patient and control groups (P = 0.021, odds ratio [OR]: 1.79, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.098-2.918) and were tightly linked in the linkage disequilibrium (LD) block. When pmir-rs1052482A was cotransfected with miR-3162-5p, there was a substantial decrease in luciferase activity, compared with pmir-rs1052482T. This result suggests that rs1052482 was located within a binding site of miR-3162-5p in the STAG3 3'-UTR, and the minor allele, the rs1052482T polymorphism, might offset inhibition by miR-3162-5p. We are the first to identify a total of 30 single-nucleotide variations (SNVs) of STAG3 gene in the Korean population. We found that two SNVs (rs1727130 and rs1052482) located in the 3'-UTR region may be associated with the NOA phenotype. Our findings contribute to understanding male infertility with spermatogenic impairment.

RESUMEN

Objective Studies on the location of the susceptibility genes of mandibular prognathism are mostly conducted by association analysis. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the candidate gene of the growth hormone receptor (GHR) and mandibular prognathism in the Han Chinese in Hong Kong. Methods We selected 7 tag SNPs (tSNP) in the GHR gene from 211 cases of mandibular prognathism and 224 controls among the Han Chinese in Hong Kong. We genotyped the tSNPs using the MassARRAY System and analyzed the association of individual SNPs and the relevant haplotypes with mandibular prognathism. Results The SNP rs6898743 of the GHR gene was found associated with mandibular prognathism in genotypic frequency (P = 0.036) and allelic distribution (P = 0.015), and the G allele of rs6898743 associated with a significantly decreased risk of mandibular prognathism (OR: 0.72; 95% CI: 0.55-0.94). Linkage disequilibrium analysis revealed the association of mandibular prognathism with the haplotypes GAA (P = 0.014) and GAG (P = 0.012). Conclusion The SNP locus rs6898743 of the GHR gene is associated with mandibular prognathism in the Han Chinese in Hong Kong

RESUMEN

RESUMEN El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar la frecuencia de haplotipos dentro del cluster de Beta globina presente en pacientes con anemia falciforme en Colombia, establecer la presencia de haplotipos no africanos en esta población, así como verificar variaciones en el patrón de desequilibrio de ligamiento dentro del cluster de Beta globina. Se analizaron 83 individuos con anemia falciforme, los haplotipos se formaron utilizando cinco sitios de restricción dentro del cluster de Beta globina, se estableció la frecuencia de haplotipos, se calculó el grado de desequilibrio de ligamiento entre los sitios de restricción, así como la similitud genética de esta población con otra de afectados en América. Los haplotipos más frecuentes en la población fueron Benin (35,1 %) y Bantú (26, 5 %), ambos africanos. Sin embargo, haplotipos presentes en poblaciones indígenas americanas y europeas alcanzaron frecuencias entre el 2 - 10 %, así como haplotipos que no han sido reportados en otras poblaciones. Los sitios de restricción presentaron bajo o nulo desequilibrio de ligamiento entre ellos. Al compararse con otras poblaciones, la población colombiana presentó mayor similitud con la población de Venezuela en donde Benin y Bantú son también predominantes. Nuestros resultados muestran que el mestizaje ha facilitado el paso de la mutación para la anemia falciforme a un contexto genético no africano (amerindio y europeo). Además, el mestizaje también ha alterado el patrón de desequilibrio de ligamiento dentro del cluster de Beta globina generando modificaciones que pueden tener influencia en estudios de asociación dentro de esta población de afectados.


ABSTRACT The objective of this study was identify the frequency of Beta globin cluster's haplotypes present in sickle cell anemia patients in Colombia, to establish the presence of non-African haplotypes in this population, to verify variations in the pattern of linkage disequilibrium in the Beta globin cluster. It was analyzed 83 individuals affected with sickle cell anemia, the haplotypes were formed using five restriction sites into Beta globin cluster. The haplotype frequency was calculated, as well as the linkage disequilibrium among restriction sites, the genetic similarity among Colombian population and other affected American population was determined. The haplotypes most frequent were Benin (35.1 %) and Bantu (26.5 %), both African. However, haplotypes present in American indigenous and European populations got frequency between two to ten percent, as well as haplotypes not reported in others population were observed in our population. The restriction sites showed low or null linkage disequilibrium. When compare with other populations, the Colombian population showed higher similarity with Venezuelan population where Benin and Bantu are predominant too. Our results showed that admixture has facilitated the move of sickle cell mutation to a non-African genetic context (Amerindian and European). Further, the admixture has also modified the pattern of linkage disequilibrium into the Beta globin cluster generating modifications that could have influence in association studies in this affected population.

RESUMEN

Resumen Introducción. La región del antígeno leucocitario humano (Human Leukocyte Antigen, HLA) se ha asociado claramente con enfermedades autoinmunitarias, como la diabetes mellitus de tipo 1. Los polimorfismos representativos de un solo nucleótido (tag Single Nucleotide Polymorphism, tag SNP) constituyen una forma alternativa de evaluar los alelos clásicos del HLA. En la población europea se ha reportado un grupo de tag SNP para múltiples alelos clásicos relacionados con la predisposición o la resistencia frente a dicha enfermedad. Objetivo. Validar la metodología basada en los tag SNP enfocada en la inferencia de alelos HLA clásicos, y evaluar su asociación con la diabetes mellitus de tipo 1 en una muestra de familias antioqueñas. Materiales y métodos. Se estudió una muestra de 200 familias antioqueñas con uno a dos hijos afectados por diabetes mellitus de tipo 1. Se genotipificaron 13 SNP mediante el ARMS-PCR (Amplification Refractory Mutation System-Polymerase Chain Reaction) con cuatro iniciadores, o mediante la PCR-RFLP (PCR-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism). Además, se evaluó la validez de los tag SNP de 1.000 genomas reportados en europeos en una muestra de 60 individuos de la población colombiana de Medellín. Se hicieron las pruebas de desequilibrio de la transmisión, de desequilibrio de ligamiento y de equilibrio de Hardy-Weinberg. Resultados. En la población de estudio no se encontró suficiente desequilibrio de ligamiento entre los SNP y los alelos clásicos evaluados, por lo cual no fue posible inferir los alelos clásicos del HLA para el conjunto de familias con diabetes mellitus de tipo 1. El estudio de asociación evidenció que esta región aporta factores tanto de riesgo como de protección para el desarrollo de la enfermedad. Los tag SNP apropiados para la muestra de estudio se determinaron usando los SNP ubicados en la región HLA en la base de datos del 1000 Genomes Project en la mencionada población. Conclusiones. Los patrones de desequilibrio de ligamiento en la población estudiada fueron diferentes a los reportados para la población europea. A pesar de esto, se encontró evidencia clara sobre el papel de la región HLA en el riesgo de padecer diabetes mellitus de tipo 1 en la población de estudio.


abstract Introduction: The HLA region strongly associates with autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes. An alternative way to test classical HLA alleles is by using tag SNP. A set of tag SNP for several classical HLA alleles has been reported as associated with susceptibility or resistance to this disease in Europeans. Objective: We aimed at validating the methodology based on tag SNP focused on the inference of classical HLA alleles, and at evaluating their association with type 1 diabetes mellitus in a sample of 200 families from Antioquia. Materials and methods: We studied a sample of 200 families from Antioquia. Each family had one or two children with T1D. We genotyped 13 SNPs using tetra-primer ARMS-PCR or PCRRFLP. In addition, we tested the validity of the tag SNP reported for Europeans in 60 individuals from a population of Colombians living in Medellín (CLM) from the 1000 Genomes Project database. Statistical analyses included the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the transmission disequilibrium and the linkage disequilibrium tests. Results: The linkage disequilibrium was low in reported tag SNP and classical HLA alleles in this CLM population. Association analyses revealed both risk and protection factors to develop type 1 diabetes mellitus. Appropriate tag SNPs for the CLM population were determined by using the genotype information available in the 1000 Genome Project database. Conclusions: Although linkage disequilibrium patterns in this CLM population were different from those reported in Europeans, we did find strong evidence of the role of HLA in the development of type 1 diabetes mellitus in the study population.

RESUMEN

Objective:To investigate the polymorphisms at HLA-A,-B,-DRB1 loci in Dalian Han population. Methods: A total of 10 000 unrelated marrow donors who live in Dalian were genotyped by SBT and SSO methods. Haplotype frequencies and linkage dis-equilibrium values were calculated by ARLEQUIN software,and DA genetic distances between populations were calculated by poptree2 software. Results: A total of 18 HLA-A alleles, 32 HLA-B alleles and 13 HLA-DRB1 alleles were found in Dalian Han population. HLA-A?02 (31. 65% ),B?40(14. 84% ) and DRB1?15(15. 82% ) occurred most frequently. A?30-B?13-DRB1?07 (4. 56% ) was determined to be the most common three-locus haplotype and the second predominant haplotype was A?02-B?46-DRB1?09 ( 2. 43% ) . A ?30-B ?13 ( 6. 00% ) and B ?13-DRB1 ?07 ( 59. 89% ) were the most common two-locus haplotypes. Moreover,A?33-B?58 and B?13-DRB1?07 were strongest haplotypes with the linkage disequilibria values 0. 336 6 and 0. 665 1,respectively. In China,the closest genetic distances were found with Heilongjiang (0. 001) followed by Jilin (0. 002) and Shandong (0. 002),the furthest was found with Taiwan (0. 047). Compared with other populations worldwide,the closest genetic distances were found with Thailand (0. 029) and Korea (0. 03),the furthest was found with Italy (0. 183). Conclusion: Dalian Han population had rich polymorphism at HLA-A,-B,-DRB1 loci,and the distribution of HLA-A,-B and-DRB1 was in line with the charac-teristics of the northern population.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE@#We aimed to study the association between rs7525173, rs2236518, rs2493264 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the PRDM16 gene, smoking, alcohol exposures, and nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P).@*METHODS@#A total of 157 case-parent trios were selected, and SNPs were genotyped by using ligase detection reaction (LDR) and direct sequencing methods. Transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) and linkage disequilibrium (LD) tests were con-ducted to analyze the data. A total of 1 710 patients with orofacial clefts and 956 healthy newborns were enrolled in the epidemiological survey. The smoking and drinking exposures of parents during early pregnancy were analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The C allele at rs2236518 was over-transmitted for NSCPO (P<0.05). Statistical differences were observed among three factors, namely, maternal smoking, maternal passive smoking, and maternal drinking (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The rs2236518 at PRDM16 gene, maternal smoking, maternal passive smoking, and maternal drinking were closely related to the occurrence of NSCL/P.

RESUMEN

Abstract Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is a major abiotic factor affecting grain weight and quality, and is caused by an early break in seed dormancy. Association mapping (AM) is used to detect correlations between phenotypes and genotypes based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) in wheat breeding programs. We evaluated seed dormancy in 80 Chinese wheat founder parents in five environments and performed a genome-wide association study using 6,057 markers, including 93 simple sequence repeat (SSR), 1,472 diversity array technology (DArT), and 4,492 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. The general linear model (GLM) and the mixed linear model (MLM) were used in this study, and two significant markers (tPt-7980 and wPt-6457) were identified. Both markers were located on Chromosome 1B, with wPt-6457 having been identified in a previously reported chromosomal position. The significantly associated loci contain essential information for cloning genes related to resistance to PHS and can be used in wheat breeding programs.

RESUMEN

Abstract Background Bone marrow transplantation has been used in the treatment of various diseases, especially hematologic diseases. The success of this treatment, among other factors, requires human leukocyte antigens (HLA) compatibility between patient and donor. Knowing the human leukocyte antigens allele group and haplotype frequencies as well as the linkage disequilibrium between alleles of different human leukocyte antigens loci can shorten the search time for a compatible bone marrow donor. Objective To assemble and analyze data on human leukocyte antigens frequencies available in the Laboratory of Immunogenetics and Histocompatibility (LIGH) database of the Universidade Federal do Paraná adding an estimation of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and linkage disequilibrium. Methods The sample was composed of seven populations grouped by self-declared ancestry or inferred from the surname as follows: Laboratory of Immunogenetics and Histocompatibility database (all groups), descendants of Italians, Poles, and Asians, Afro-Brazilians, Mulattos (mixed ancestry) and Amerindians. Human leukocyte antigens genotyping was carried out using the polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) and -sequence specific oligonucleotide (PCR-SSO) technologies. Results There were high frequencies of the HLA-A*02, HLA-B*35 and HLA-DRB1*13 allelic groups in all groups. The same was observed for the HLA-A*01-B*08-DRB1*03 haplotype except for Asian descendants. It was observed that the human leukocyte antigens Laboratory of Immunogenetics and Histocompatibility database and the Asian group are not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The Italian, Polish, Asian, Mulatto and Amerindian descendants showed haplotypes in complete linkage disequilibrium. Our results were compared with data on the human leukocyte antigens in the Paraná population available from the Brazilian Voluntary Bone Marrow Donor Registry (REDOME) and data published on the population of Curitiba and the northern region of Paraná. Conclusions Haplotypes frequent in the Asian group were not the most frequently observed in the Laboratory of Immunogenetics and Histocompatibility database and the National Bone Marrow Donor Registry for the state of Paraná. Linkage disequilibrium information may prove useful in the search for bone marrow donors for patients awaiting a suitable donor.

RESUMEN

RESUMEN Introducción. El lupus eritematoso sistémico es una enfermedad autoinmunitaria cuya gravedad varía según la raza, el sexo y la edad de aparición. Esta disparidad también se observa en los marcadores genéticos asociados con la enfermedad presentes en los genes PTPN22, VDR y TNF. La estratificación genética que presentan las diferentes poblaciones en el mundo puede influir en dicha variabilidad. Objetivo. Analizar la asociación de variantes genéticas de los genes PTPN22, VDR y TNF con nefritis lúpica en niños y su caracter de hereditarias en familias colombianas. Materiales y métodos. Se llevó a cabo un estudio basado en familias con 46 tríos (caso, padre y madre). Se hizo la genotipificación de las variantes rs2476601 de PTPN22, rs361525 y rs1800629 del TNF, y TaqI [rs731236], ApaI [rs7975232], BsmI [rs1544410] y FokI [rs2228570] del VDR, mediante reacción en cadena de la polimerasa cuantitativa (quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction, qPCR). Se estimó el efecto de la transmisión del alelo de riesgo de padres a hijos y el desequilibrio de ligamiento de los loci VDR y TNF. Resultados. Se observó que el alelo A de rs2476601 en PTPN22 se distribuyó en 8,69 % (n=16) de los padres y en 19,5 % (n=18) de los casos, y que su transmisión de padres a hijos fue 17 veces mayor con relación al alelo G (p=0,028). Los polimorfismos de TNF y VDR no presentaron desequilibrio de transmisión. Las variantes TaqI, ApaI y BsmI del VDR presentaron desequilibrio de ligamiento. Conclusión. Estos hallazgos evidenciaron una asociación del polimorfismo rs2476601 de PTPN22 con la nefritis lúpica en niños, determinada por su transmisión en el grupo de familias estudiadas.


ABSTRACT Introduction: Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease in which the severity varies according to race, sex and age of onset. This variation is also observed in the genetic markers associated with the disease, including PTPN22, VDR and TNF genes. The genetic stratification in different populations worldwide can influence the variability. Objective: To analyze the heritability of PTPN22, VDR and TNF genetic variants and their association with pediatric lupus nephritis in Colombian families. Materials and methods: We conducted a family-based study including 46 triads (case, father and mother). The variants rs2476601 of PTPN22; rs361525 and rs1800629 of TNF, and TaqI [rs731236], ApaI [rs7975232], BsmI [rs1544410] and FokI [rs2228570] of VDR were genotyped by qPCR. The effects of overtransmission of the risk allele from parents to children and linkage disequilibrium at the VDR and TNF loci were estimated. Results: We found that allele A of rs2476601 in PTPN22 was distributed among 8.69 % (n=16) of the parents and 19.5 % (n=18) of the cases; this allele was overtransmitted from parents to children 17 times more often than the G allele (p=0.028). TNF and VDR polymorphisms did not exhibit transmission disequilibrium. VDR TaqI, ApaI and BsmI variants exhibited linkage disequilibrium. Conclusion: These findings showed an association between the PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism and pediatric lupus nephritis due to its overtransmission in the group of families studied.

RESUMEN

Referring to the statistical model for the SNP haplotype phasing which was based on the allele frequencies and advised by Browning SR, we investigated and deduced the phasing method of STR haplotype with linkage disequilibrium inpaternity testing preliminarily. Haplotype phasing of two X-STRs in linkage disequilibrium were illustrated. This method provides an idea for the haplotype phasing of STR markers, which is helpful for interpreting the typing results of STR more scientifically and accurately.
