Abstract:
The association of polymorphisms of calcium channel?1 subunit ( Cav1.1 ) gene ( - 1551T/C at exon 11 ) with thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) was investigated by PCR-RFLP.The distributions and frequencies of - 1551TC + CC genotype and C allele in TPP group were significantly higher than those in hyperthyroidism (HT) and normal control (CON) groups.There was no statistic difference between HT and CON groups.Cavl.1 gene - 1551TC + CC genotype and allele may contribute to the development of TPP in male HAN population from North China.
