Abstract:
Objective To study the correlation between the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system angiotensinogen (AGT) gene M235T,angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 receptor (AGTR1) gene Al166C,aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) gene -344C/T polymorphisms and large-artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke in a southern Chinese Han population.Methods Polymerase chain reaction and gene sequencing technology were used for the genotyping in patients with LAA and normal controls with AGT gene M235T,AGTR1 gene A1166C,and CYP11B2 gene - 344C/T polymorphisms in a southern Chinese Han population,and to determine the correlation between the 3 gene polymorphisms and LAA by binary logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 107 patients with LAA and 142 healthy controls were included in the study.The frequencies of the AGT gene 253TT genotype (66.36％ vs.50.70％,x2 =6.122,P =0.047) and T allele (79.44％ vs.70.07％ ％,x2 =5.581,P =0.018) in the LAA group were significantly higher than those in the control group.The frequencies of the AGTR1 gene 1166CC genotype (0％ vs.0％,x2 =1.494,P =0.222) and C allele (7.48％ vs.4.93％,x2 =1.399,P =0.237) in the LAA group were no significantly differences with those in the control group.The frequencies of the CYP11B2 gene - 344CC genotype (9.35％ vs.4.23％,x2 =3.603,P =0.165) and C allele (27.10％ vs.26.06％,x2 =0.069,P =0.793) in the LAA group were no significant differences with those in the control group.Binary logistic regression analysis showed that there was no significant correlation between the three gene polymorphisms and the simple LAA diseases.The frequencies of AGT gene 235TT genotype (68.00％ vs.41.90％,x2 =12.446,P =0.002) and T allele (79.33％ vs.64.76％,x2 =8.993,P =0.003) in the LAA patients complicated with hypertension were significantly higher than those in the normotensive control group.Logistic regression analysis showed that the odds ratio (OR) exposed to TT genotype was 2.153 (95％ confidence interval [CI] 0.789-5.872).The OR of T allele was 2.089 (95％ CI 1.285-3.396).Conclusions The AGT gene M235T polymorphism is not associated with the simple LAA in the southern Chinese Han population,but it may be associated with the risk of LAA complicated with hypertension;CYP11B2 gene -344C/T polymorphism and AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism are not associated with the onset of LAA in the southern Chinese Han population.
