Abstract:
Objective To investigate the association of the tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member(TNFSF)4 gene polymorphisms rs3861950 and cerebral infaretion in Hunan area.Methods The frequencies of the genotypes of rs3861950 were detected utilizing real-time fluorescent PCR method based on TaqMan probe.Subiects examined were composed of 287 patients and 285 healthy individuals.Results There were significant differences in TNFSF4 gene rs3861950 C→T site polymorphism and allele frequency between the subjects and the controls,the distribution of CC genotype was significantly higher in the former (7.7%)than in the later(2.1%,X2=9.553,P=0.008),so was the frequencies of C allele(0.190 vs 0.137,X2=5.887,P=0.015).Moreover,there were significant differences in the distribution of genotype and the frequencies of allele between the subgroup of cerebral thrombosis and control group ( for the distribution of genotype X2=9.396 P=0.009,for the frequencies of allele X2=6.134,P=0.013).Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factor of CC genotype was 3.7 times higherthan others(P=0.002.OR 3.706).Conclusions TNFSF4 gene SNP rs3861950 is associated with cerebral infarction and C allele is considered to be one of independent risk factors in the Han population in Hunan Province.
