Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene polymorphism and ischemic stroke in Chinese Han population.Methods Patients with first-ever stroke and the age-and sex-matched healthy controls were enrolled in the study.Taqman probe fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction technique was used to detect the genotype distribution of rs2779248 C/T and rs1137933 C/T polymorphisms.Results A total of 246 patients with ischemic stroke and 246 controls were enrolled.The distribution frequencies of rs2779248 CC,CT and TT genotypes in the patient group were 57.7%,36.6%,and 5.7%,respectively,and in the control group were 68.7%,28.0%,and 3.3%,respectively.The T allele frequency of the patient group was significantly higher than that of the control group (24.0% vs.17.3%;P =0.015).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for the risk factors including age,sex,hypertension,and diabetes,the risk of ischemic stroke in the CT + TT genotype carriers was 1.64 times of the CC genotype carriers (odds ratio 1.64,95% confidence interval 1.07-2.51;P=0.022).The distribution frequencies of rs1137933 CC,CT and TT in the patient group were 58.1%,37.8%,and 4.1%,respectively and in the control group were 68.3%,29.3%,and 2.4%,respectively.The T allele frequency of the patient group was significantly higher than that of the control group (23.0% vs.17.1%;P =0.013).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for traditional risk factors,the risk of ischemic stroke of patients with the TT + CT genotype carriers was 1.60 times of the CC genotype carriers (odds ratio 1.60,95% confidence interval 1.05-2.46;P=0.030).Conclusions The rs2779248 C/T and rs1137933 C/T polymorphisms in iNOS gene may be associated with the risk of onset of ischemic stroke in Chinese Han population.
