ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the genetic association between KCNJ10 rs1890532 gene polymorphism and susceptibility to children epilepsy in the Han descent population in the Northern China. Methods Two hundred twelve children with epilepsy were recruited as the epilepsy group. According to seizure types, they were divided?into partial seizures (PS) group (120 cases) and generalized seizures (GS) group (92 cases). Two hundred healthy volunteers without epilepsy were randomly selected from our hospital during the same period as the control group. General clini-cal data was collected and genotype was determined by polymerase chain reaction- restriction fragment length poly-morphism for the polymorphism of the KCNJ10 gene. Results Results showed that KCNJ10 rs1890532 gene polymor-phism was significantly associated with GS in children in both allelic association analysis (OR=1.325, 95%CI 1.014~2.461, P=0.043) and recessive model (OR=3.173, 95%CI 1.097~10.694, P=0.021) after adjustment for sex and age. There was no significant difference in any genetic model between the control group and epilepsy group, neither be-tween the control group and PS group. Conclusion Polymorphism of the KCNJ10 (rs1890532) gene may be associated with the risk of GS in children.
