Abstract:
Objective To investigate gender specific association between single nucleotide polymorphism rs2231142 and hyperuricemia .Method A matched case-control study was conducted in a faculty cohort of a tertiary hospital in Beijing .The enrollment criteria were faculty member of the hospital with signed consent .The exclusion criteria were tumor , previous renal diseases , renal function damage , pregnancy , currently taking medicines that could increase or decrease serum uric acid level , and those who had gout.Males with serum uric acid >416.4 μmol/L and females with serum uric acid >359.6 μmol/L were enrolled as hyperuricemia group .Subjects with normal serum uric acid were randomly enrolled at 1:2 ratio after matching for gender , age, renal function and body mass index .Rs2231142( C>A) was assayed by amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction , with common forward primer:5′GGCTTTGCAGACATCTATGG 3′, C specific reverse primer:5′CGAAGAGCTGCTGAGAAATG 3′, and A specific reverse primer:5′CGAAGAGCTGCTGAGAAATT 3′.Association between rs 2231142 and hyperuricemia was analyzed in the general study group , as well as different gender and age groups .Results A total of 198 subjects with hyperuricemia and 370 controls were enrolled .The A allele frequency of rs2231142 was significantly higher in the hyperuricemia group than control group (38.38% vs 26.62%, P<0.001), with an OR for hyperuricemia of 2.89 (95%CI 1.91-4.37, P<0.001).After adjustment for hypertension, hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia , the OR was 2.99 (95%CI 1.94 -4.62, P<0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the ORs were 3.83 (95%CI 2.03-7.24, P<0.001) in male and 2.30 (95%CI 1.32-4.00, P=0.003) in female.In those 55 years or older, the gender differences of ORs were decreased, with ORs of 3.23 (95%CI 1.02-10.29, P=0.047) in male and 3.06 (95%CI 1.37-6.84, P=0.006) in female.While in those less than 55 years, the gender differences of ORs were enlarged, with ORs of 4.11 (95%CI 1.92-8.79, P<0.001) in males and 1.73 (95%CI 0.80-3.76, P=0.165) in females.Interaction study between gender and rs 2231142 did not reach significant level in both the gender group and two age groups . Conclusion Single nucleotide polymorphism rs 2231142 A allele is an independent risk factor for hyperuricemia in this tertiary hospital faculty cohort .The ORs are higher in male than those in female , especially in those less than 55 years old .
