ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study correlation between the Xba I polymorphism of apoB gene and plasma lipid profiles in Li ethnic group.@*METHODS@#Total 151 cases of healthy Li people were recruited randomly by cluster sampling and 200 Han people were recruited as control; blood was drawn to analyze Xba I polymorphism distribution of apoB gene and serum lipid levels.@*RESULTS@#There were lower serum total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in serum of Li people; while, high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), X-/X+ genotype and X+ allele frequencies exhibited higher levels than Han people. Interestingly, HDL-C level was reduced, while LDL-C level was enhanced in subjects carrying heterozygous (X-/X+) genotype compared to homozygous (X-/X-) genotype. Additionally, there were no difference in serum level of triglyceride, TC, apoprotein A (apo A) and apoprotein B (apo B) between Li and Han people, the same results were showed between X-/X+ and X-/X- genotype carriers.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Xba I polymorphism of apoB gene is correlated to the profiles of serum lipid level, X-/X+ genotype carriers are phenotyped with higher LDL-C level and lower level of HDL-C in Li ethnic group.
