Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression and polymorphism of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene and their association with acute hyperlipidemic pancreatitis(HLP). Methods A total of 120 patients Were assigned to HLP group (n=20), acute pancreatitis (AP) group (n=50) and control group (n= 50). Serum levels of triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (Ch), free fatty acid (FFA), lipoprotein and apolipoprotein and serum LPL/HL activities were determined. The mRNA expressions of LPL/HL and LPL gene intron 8 polymorphisms were detected by RT-PCR and PCR-RFLP, respectively. Results The serum levels of TG, Ch, FFA and ApoE were significantly higher in HLP group than those in AP group and control group (P<0.05). The serum level of HDL was lower in HLP group than that in AP group and control group(P<0.05). The serum LPL/HL activities were significantly higher in HLP group than that in AP and control groups. The expression of LPL mRNA was up-regulated and intron 8 Hind Ⅲ H2 allele frequency was significantly inereased in the HLP group compared to control group(0.90/0.72, P<0.05). H1 allele frequency was significantly decreased in the HLP and AP groups compared to control group(0.10/0.28 and 0.14/0.28, respectively). Conclusions The high allele frequency of LPL gene intron 8 Hind H2 result in the increase of activities and expression of LPL mRNA, which exacerbate the development of HLP through changing TG metabolism such as FFA accumulation.
