    Objective To investigate association between –174C/G genetic polymorphism of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and susceptibility to gastric cancer by conducting a meta-analysis. Methods Such databases as PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang Data were searched from inception to January 2017 to collect case-control studies about the correlation between the –174C/G genetic polymorphism of IL-6 and susceptibility to gastric cancer. For the population genotype distributions of both the gastric cancer group and the control group, their odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were taken as the effect indexes were applied to conduct meta-analysis in the homozygote model (CC vs. GG), heterozygote model (GC vs. GG), dominant model (CC+CG vs. GG), recessive model (CG+GG vs. CC), and allelic genetic model (C vs. G). Two reviewers independently screened the literatures, extracted the data, and evaluated the quality of the included studies. The meta-analysis was performed using Stata 12.0 software. Results Thirteen articles were included in the final meta-analysis, covering a total of 2 062 gastric cancer cases and 3 152 controls. The results of meta-analysis showed that there was no correlation between the IL-6 –174C/G genetic polymorphism and the risk of gastric cancer〔CC vs. GG: OR=1.33, 95% CI (0.92, 1.94); GC vs. GG: OR=1.32, 95% CI (0.96, 1.82); CC+CG vs. GG: OR=1.32, 95% CI (0.97, 1.80); CG+GG vs. CC: OR=0.89, 95% CI (0.67, 1.17); C vs. G: OR=1.22, 95% CI (0.98, 1.54)〕. But the results of the subgroup analysis showed there was a significant association between the IL-6 –174 C/G genetic polymorphism and the risk of gastric cancer in Asians〔CC vs. GG: OR=1.80, 95% CI (1.29, 2.50); GC vs. GG: OR=1.51, 95% CI (1.20, 1.90); CC+CG vs. GG: OR=1.60, 95% CI (1.30, 1.96); CG+GG vs. CC: OR=0.60, 95% CI (0.44, 0.83); C vs. G: OR=1.59, 95% CI (1.24, 2.03)〕. However, no association was found in Europeans〔CC vs. GG: OR=1.11, 95% CI (0.90, 1.39); GC vs. GG: OR=1.16, 95% CI (0.98, 1.37); CC+CG vs. GG: OR=1.12, 95% CI (0.96, 1.32); CG+GG vs. CC: OR=1.07, 95% CI (0.88, 1.30); C vs. G: OR=1.04, 95% CI (0.78, 1.41)〕 . Conclusion IL-6 –174C/G genetic polymorphism is associated with susceptibility to gastric cancer in Asians, which is not associated with susceptibility to gastric cancer in Europeans.

  • Study on the genetic association of LRP5 gene polymorphism and susceptibility to osteoporosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

    ObjectiveTo understand the genetics associations between low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) gene polymorphisms and susceptibility of osteoporosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).MethodsThree hundred and seventy-nine patients with acute exacerbation of COPD were divided into groups of non osteoporosis and osteoporosis. Genomic DNA was extracted from all patients. UCSC genome browser and Haploview 4.2 software were used to screen tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNP) of LRP5 gene. The tagSNP was genotyped by Sequenom MassARRAY SNP detection method. Logistic regression were used to analysis the odds ratio (OR) values and confidence intervals (CI) of each SNP in different genetic models to assess the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in LRP5 gene and osteoporosis in COPD patients.ResultsEight tagSNPs of LRP5 gene (rs312016 T/C, rs312017 C/T, rs312018 A/G, rs3736228 C/T, rs901823 T/C, rs589963 G/A, rs638051 A/G, rs671494 C/A) were selected for association analysis. Patients of rs901823 carrying C/C genotype had a higher risk of osteoporosis than those carrying T/T and C/T genotypes in COPD patients (in recessive mode, C/C vs. T/T+C/T, OR=9.42, 95%CI=2.01–44.29), P=0.000 431 8).ConclusionsThere is a significant association between rs901823 of LRP5 gene and osteoporosis in patients with COPD. Further studies are needed to discover the mechanism of LRP5 gene polymorphism in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis in COPD patients.

  • Progress of gene research for chronic venous ulcer

    ObjectiveTo understand progress of gene research for chronic venous ulcer (CVU) so as to seek for the best treatment strategy for it.MethodThe literatures about studies on gene polymorphism and variability that leaded to the occurrence and development of CVU in recent years were reviewed and analyzed.ResultsThe CVU was mainly caused by the chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). Many changes in the gene expression had been found in the curable CVU and incurable CVU. The expressions of regulated inflammatory genes, encoding extracellular peptide genes, and encoding different cellular pathways genes in the incurable CVU patients had remarkable differences as compared with the healthy individuals. Although there were more studies on incurable CVU than curable CVU, it was still unable to accurately predict the healing time of CVU. At the same time, genome-wide associations study had not been performed to find single nucleotide polymorphism related to the risk of CVU.ConclusionsAlthough CVU is mainly caused by CVI, not all patients with CVI have ulcer. At present, parts of risk factors of CVU have been known, such as age, iliofemoral vein embolism, deep vein insufficiency, hypertension, obesity, and so on. However, there are fewer studies on heredity, so it is necessary to strengthen its research. Gene expression and gene polymorphism have increasingly become focus of research on causes of chronic inflammation. Genome-wide association study is a gold standard of complex disease genetics, so it is neccessary to further search so as to better understand genetic basis and genetic background of CVU and find the best treatment strategy for improving ulcer healing.

  • Clinical study of MUC5B and TOLLIP gene polymorphisms in evaluating the prognosis of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

    ObjectiveTo understand the genetic polymorphisms of MUC5B and TOLLIP in Chinese patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and to explore whether gene polymorphism variation in Chinese IPF patients can be used as a genetic biomarker for accurate treatment and prognosis judgment.MethodsA total of one hundred and twenty-six patients with IPF were enrolled in this study. The baseline characteristics, total lung capacity (TLC), forced vital capacity (FVC), carbon monoxide diffusion function (DLCO), imaging changes of the patients were followed up. The levels of serum sputum glycosylated antigen-6 (Krebs Von den Lungen-6, KL-6) and B lymphocyte chemotactic factor C-X-C motif chemokine 13 (CXCL13) were detected by chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The gene MUC5B rs35705950 and TOLLIP rs5743890, rs5743894 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were determined by polymerase chain reaction.ResultsOne hundred and twenty-six patients with IPF were found with AA type by TOLLIP rs5743890 and rs5743894 SNP, accounting for 100.0%; MUC5B rs35705950 SNP was expressed as 116 patients (92.1%) with GG type, and 10 patients (7.9%) with GT type, no TT patients were detected. There was no significant difference in clinical characteristics between the two groups in age and non-smokers (P>0.05). Compared with group G, annual decrease of lung function (FVC, DLCO, and TLC), serum biomarkers (KL-6 and CXCL13), annual increase of reticular and honeycombing lesions, and mortality were significantly lower in group T (P<0.05). The median survival time of IPF patients carrying the MUC5B SNP rs35705950 minor allele (gene phenotype GT) heterozygous was significantly higher than that of homozygous IPF patients with a genetic phenotype of GG.ConclusionsThere are genetic polymorphisms in Chinese patients with IPF. MUC5B rs35705950 and TOLLIP rs5743890, rs5743894 gene subtypes have low mutation rates in the cohort. Compared with homozygous patients of MUC5B SNP rs35705950, heterozygous patients have smaller changes in lung function and radiological image, lower levels of serum KL-6 and CXCL13, and better prognosis.

  • Correlation between Polymorphism in Estrogen Receptor α Gene and Endometriosis in Chinese Women: A Meta-Analysis

    Objective To systematically evaluate the correlation between endometriosis (EM) in Chinese women and Xba I polymorphism in intron-1 of estrogen receptor α (ER-α) gene. Methods Such databases as PubMed, MEDLINE, The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2012), VIP, CBM, WanFang Data and CNKI were searched to collect case-control studies about the correlation between EM and Xba I polymorphism in intron-1 of ER-α gene. The retrieval time was from 1980 to 2012. Two reviewers independently screened the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted the data and assessed the quality, and then the meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.0 and Stata 12.0 software. Results A total of 7 studies involving 676 EM patients and 688 healthy volunteers were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that Chinese women with X/X genotype had similar risk of EM compared to those with x/x genotype (OR=0.95, 95%CI 0.58 to 1.54, P=0.82) or X/x genotype (OR=0.73, 95%CI 0.44 to 1.20, P=0.22). The allele X also showed similar risk of EM compared to the allele x (OR=1.11, 95%CI 0.93 to 1.33, P=0.25). Conclusion At present, it has not yet been found that the incidence of EM in Chinese women is related to the Xba I polymorphism in intron-1 of ER-α gene as well as the allele X. For the quantity and quality limitation of the included studies, this conclusion has to be proved by more studies.

    Objective To explore the relationship between alcohol induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677 C/T. Methods From July 2005 to May 2008, eighty-nine male patients with alcohol induced ONFH were selected as the patient group, aged from 24 to58 years old (mean 44.3 years old). The time of drinking was about 17 years, 375 mL/day. The imaging evidence showed ONFH with no other history associated to ONFH. Seventy-seven male healthy adults were selected as the control group, aged from 23 to 52 years old (mean 42.7 years old). The time of drinking was about 14 years, 335 mL/day. The imaging evidence showed no ONFH. The 2 mL blood sample was acquired from every subject. DNA was purified from leucocyte at first, then was ampl icated by PCR, the product of PCR was sequenced at last. The SNP of MTHFR 677 C/T was analyzed with SPSS 12.0 software package. Results The TT genotype and T allele frequencies of MTHFR 677 C/T were 27.2% and 52.0% (P gt; 0.05) in the control group, and the distribution of genotype was consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equil ibrium. The genotype frequencies of CC, CT and TT were 23.4% (18 cases), 49.4% (38 cases) and 27.2% (21 cases) in the control group, were 14.6% (13 cases), 36.0% (32 cases) and 49.4% (44 cases) in the patient group; showing statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The allele frequencies of C and T were 48.0% (74) and 52.0% (80) in the control group, and were 32.6% (58) and 67.4% (120) in the patient group; showing statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The frequencies of C, T alleles and TT genotype were higher in the patient group than in the control group, showing statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The odds ratios were 0.523, 1.914 and 2.607, respectively; the 95% confidence interval were 0.335-0.816, 1.226-2.987, 1.359-5.001, respectively.
