Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship of Ghrelin gene polymorphism with the occurrence of human anorectal malformations (ARMs) and Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). Methods PCR and DNA sequencing were used to detect the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) of 3 loci (rs139684563, rs149447194, rs186599567) genotype of Ghrelin gene in 100 children with ARMs, 100 children with HSCR, and 100 healthy children (normal group). Genovariation and gene mutation were analyzed with case-control method. Results Three loci SNPs were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg genetic equilibrium. No significant differences were found in rs139684563 allele and genotype frequencies between the cases and the normal groups (P>0.05). The allele and genotype frequencies of rs149447194 and rs186599567 were significantly different between cases and normal group (P<0.05). DNA sequencing results showed that wild-type homozygous deletion (176th and 191th base A deletion, respectively) were found in rs149447194 and rs186599567of ARMs and HSCR children, and single base substitution was detected in rs149447194 of ARMs children (194th codon nucleotide CCT→CTC). Conclusions The rs149447194 and the rs186599567 polymorphism changes may be associated with the pathogenesis of ARMs and HSCR.
