Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene 1633C/T polymorphism and late-onset Alzheimer's disease in order to provide genetic reference data for late-onset Alzheimer's disease.Methods Polymorphism distribution of IL-8 gene 1633C/T in 80 LOAD and 80 normal controls were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCRRFLP) analysis.The alleles and gene frequencies type were calculated by the direct counting.Type of gene was proceeded with the Hardy-Weinberg balance estimate.The other statistical analyses were carried out with SPSS13.0 software.The genotype frequencies and allele frequencies were compared with the Chisquare test (x2 test).Results For IL-8 gene1633 C/T,the genotype frequencies (CC,20.0% ; CT,41.2% ; TT,38.8%) in the LOAD group were not significantly different from those (CC,11.3% ; CT,40.0% ; TT,48.7%) in the control group (P > 0.05).Conclusions IL-8 gene 1633 C/T polymorphism is probably not related to the genetic susceptibility of late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
