Abstract:
Objective To detect the single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) of chemokine RANTES promoter of healthy and HIV 1 infected individuals of Han and Uiygur Chinese population, and to evaluate the correlation of their SNPs with HIV 1 infection. Methods Case control study was adopted ,Genotypies of RANTES promoter 403 and 28 from 863 samples were detected by DNA sequencing or by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism. Results There were two SNPs and six genotypes in Chinese Han and Uiygur. 403 and 28 allelic frequencies were high, but there was no significant difference between the two healthy populations. Strong linkage disequilibrium was observed between the two SNPs. RANTES genotypes were AC/AC, AC/AG, AC/GC, AG/GC, GC/GC, and AG/AG. The haplotypes were GC 62 7% in both rases, AC 28 7% and 30 4%, AG 8 6% and 6 8% in Han and Uiygur, respectively. Compared with AC/AC, odd ratio (OR) of RANTES genotypes AC/AG, AC/GC, AG/GC, and GC/GC was associated with reduced susceptibility to HIV 1 infection. Conclusion Same high RANTES promoter mutation was found in Han and Uiygur populations. Compared with AC/AC, odd ratio (OR) of RANTES genotypes AC/AG, AC/GC, AG/GC 9.9%, and GC/GC might be associated with reduced susceptibility to HIV 1 infection. Further study of the implicated in needed
