Correlation between paraoxonase 1 Q192R polymorphism and ischemic stroke in Chinese Han population / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between large artery atherosclerotic stroke and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) Q192R polymorphism.Methods Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to detect the PON1 Q192R polymorphism of 120 patients with large artery atherosclerotic stroke (case group) and 117 healthy subjects (control group).Results There was significant difference in the genotype distribution of PON1 Q192R (x2 =18.727,P＜0.001) and the allele frequency distribution (x2 =16.427,P ＜0.001) between the case group and the control group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that RR genotype was an independent risk factor for large artery atherosclerotic stroke (odds ratio 1.377,95％ confidence interval 1.032-2.185; P =0.026).Conclusions The allelic gene mutation rate of PON1 Q192R in patients with large artery atherosclerotic stroke was significantly higher than that in the healthy population.RR genotype is an independent risk factor for large artery atherosclerotic stroke.
