Single nucleotide polymorphisms research of osteopontin gene in Zhuang populations in Guangxi / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the genotype and allele frequencies of osteopontin gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) rs11728697and rs9138 in Zhuang populations in Guangxi ,and to compare the distribution of osteopontin polymorphisms a‐mong different races .Methods The osteopontin gene rs11728697 and rs9138 polymorphisms were detected by SNaPshot SNP gen‐otyping technique in 150 Zhuang populations in Guangxi ,the genotype and allele frequencies of osteopontin gene rs 11728697 and rs9138 polymorphisms were analyzed in Zhuang populations compared with the other four populations (HapMap‐CEU ,HapMap‐YRI ,HapMap‐JPT ,HapMap‐HCB) from HapMap database .Results The most common genotype and allele of osteopontin gene rs11728697 polymorphism in Zhuang populations in Guangxi were CC(42 .7% ) and C(62 .7% ) ,and the most common genotype and allele of osteopontin gene rs9138 polymorphism were CA (51 .3% ) and C(63 .0% ) .There were no significant differences in the gen‐otype and allele frequencies of osteopontin gene rs11728697 and rs9138 polymorphisms between male and female groups ( P >0 .05) .The genotype and allele frequencies of osteopontin gene rs11728697 polymorphism were significantly differenct compared with HapMap‐CEU ,HapMap‐JPT and HapMap‐YRI(P 0 .05) .The genotype and allele frequencies of osteopontin gene rs9138 polymorphism were significantly differenct compared with HapMap‐CEU and HapMap‐YRI(P 0 .05) .Conclusion There are significant differences in the genotype and allele frequencies of osteopontin gene rs 11728697 and rs9138 polymorphisms between Zhuang populations and other ethnic populations ,and this variation might contribute for a varie‐ty of clinical manifestation and morbidity of some osteopontin related diseases .
