Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship of gene polymorphisms of angiotensin eonvertion enzyme (ACE), aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2)and α-adducin with subclinical renal lesion. Methods I/D polymorphism of ACE gene, -344T/C polymorphism of CYP11B2 gene and 460G/T polymorphism of α-adduein gene were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restrictive fragment length polymorphism(RFLP) in 604 normotensive subjects and 1081 primary hypertensive patients whose creatinine (Cr) were less than 2mg/L. The primary hypertensive and normotensive subjects were divided respectively into normal group (Ccr≥60ml/min) and subclinical renal lesion (Ccr＜60 ml/min) group, according to creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) calculated by Cockcroft-Gault equation. Results ANOVA, contingency X2 and partition of chi-square were selected. The frequencies of different genotypes of ACE, CYP11B2, and α-adducin were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in our study. Normal renal function group (A group, n=512) and subclinical renal lesion group (B group, n=92) in normotensive subjects, and normal renal function group (C group, n=828) and subclinical renal lesion group (D group, n=252) in hypertensive patients were compared. The patients in B and D groups were older than those in A and C groups (P<0.01). But there were no significant differences in the age between B and D groups, and between A and C groups. The frequency of ACE-DD genotype in D group was the highest (22.6%) among four groups and the frequency of α-adducin-TT genotype in A group was the lowest (13.3%) among four groups (all P<0.01). The differences of genotype frequencies of ACE and α-adducin genes among other three groups were not significant. No significant difference was found in frequencies of genotypes of CYP11B2 among four groups. Conclusions Subclinical renal lesion is increased with the aging. ACE-DD genotype is related with hypertension and subclinical renal lesion, while α-adducin-TT genotype is related with hypertension and subclinical renal lesion. Association between the genotypes of CYP11B2 and subclinical renal lesion is not found.
