Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the association between gene polymorphisms in vitamin D receptor(VDR) and Tourette syndrome (TS).Methods:The genetic contributions of VDR FokI (rs2228570), BsmI (rs1544410), and Cdx2 (rs11568820) polymorphisms were genotyped by TaqMan allelic discrimination real-time (RT)-PCR, which evaluated by a case-control analysis in 417 TS patients and 442 healthy controls, and followed by a family-based study in 417 TS trios.Chi-square test and relative risk analysis were conducted by IBM SPSS 23.0 software.Results:FokI (rs2228570) had three genotypes(CC=109, CT=235, TT=73); BsmI (rs1544410) had three genotypes(AA=2, AG=45, GG=370); Cdx2 (rs11568820) had three genotypes(AA=71, AG=200, GG=146). No significant difference in genotype ( χ2=5.516, P=0.063; χ2=3.466, P=0.177; χ2=0.561, P=0.755, respectively) or allele frequencies( χ2=0.840, P=0.359; χ2=3.376, P=0.066; χ2=0.051, P=0.822, respectively)of FokI, BsmI and Cdx2 were identified between TS patients and control groups.No significant over-transmission was identified for these three polymorphisms among 417 TS trios in the family-based study (TDT for FokI: χ2=0.009, P=0.962; for BsmI: χ2=1.220, P=0.320; and for Cdx2: χ2=0.260, P=0.646). Haplotype relative risk (HRR) analysis and haplotype-based haplotype relative risk (HHRR) analysis showed no significant difference in allele frequencies distribution of FokI, BsmI and Cdx2 (all P>0.05). Conclusion:VDR receptor gene polymorphism has no effect on TS susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. However, a potential role of VDR should be explored in more polymorphisms, different populations and larger samples.
