ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene 3 '-untranslated region rs4846049 G/T polymorphism and risk of ischemic stroke in a Chinese Han population. Methods A total of 396 patients with ischemic stroke and 378 healthy subjects (control group ) were selected using a case-control study design. Large artery atherosclerosis and small artery occlusion in the case group were 268 and 128 cases, respectively. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and the direct sequencing method were used to detect MTHFR gene rs4846049 G/T polymorphism. Results As compared to the GG genotype, the TT genotype significantly increased the risk of ischemic stroke (odds ratio [OR] 2. 87, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1. 43-5. 76;P=0. 003). Compared with G allele, T allele significantly increased the risk of the disease (OR 1. 62, 95% OR 1. 28-2. 06; P< 0. 001 ). Subgroup analyses showed that the rs4846049 G/T polymorphism could significantly increase the onset risks of LAA and SAO subtype stroke (all P<0.05). Conclusions MTHFR gene rs4846049 G/T polymorphism may be associated with the increased susceptibility to ischemic stroke in the Chinese Han population. The T allele may be a genetic risk factor for ischemic stroke in the Chinese Han population.
