Objective To investigate the association between β2-adrenergic receptor gene polymorphism and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, and to provide reference for clinical disease prevention and treatment.MethodsThe clinical data of 200 patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease confirmed by coronary angiography were selected and included in the study group, and 200 healthy subjects without coronary atherosclerotic heart disease group.The polymorphism of β2 adrenergic receptor gene was detected and the frequency of each gene was analyzed.ResultsThe genotype frequencies of β2-adrenergic receptor gene were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the difference was not statistically significant.According to dominant genetic model, the frequency of AA+AG was 46.0% vs 58.0% lower than that of the control group, and had statistical significance, The genotype frequency of GG genotype in study group was significantly lower than that in control group 14.0% vs 26.0%, χ2=26.20, P=0.00.The frequency of GG genotype in study group was significantly higher than that in control group 54.0% vs 42.0%, χ2=5.76, P=0.01.The frequency of A gene was 38.0% compared with 44.0% in control group, χ2=1.48, P=0.22;the frequency of AA gene in study group was 30.0%, and the frequency of gene A was 38.0%, compared with 56.0% Compared with 32.0% in the control group, χ2=0.18, P=0.66.ConclusionThe A/G polymorphism of β2-adrenergic receptor gene is closely related to the clinical pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, and the A allele may be a protective factor in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease.

AIM: To explore the effect of nuclear factor-?B (NF-?B) on the anti-apoptosis induced by brain ischemia preconditioning (IP). METHODS: Temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion for 20 min followed three days reperfusion before 6 hours middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) trancranially was used as preconditioning in Wistar rats. The protective role was evaluated by analyzing the infarct volume. The status of neuronal apoptosis was observed by TUNEL. The expression of NF?B p65 protein, the assay of SOD activity and MDA concentration were analyzed by using the methods of immunohistochemistry and cytochemistry. RESULTS: Compared to the control group, 20 min ischemic preconditioning, which did not produce neuronal damage obviously, reduced the infarct volume significantly after MCAO 6 h and obviously decreased the number of neural cell apoptosis in penumbra (P

Objective To investigate the relationship between apolipoprotein E ( ApoE ) gene polymorphism and cerebral infarction patients with different gender and etiological typing. Methods A total of 91 patients with cerebral infarction aged≥60 years ( cerebral infarction group) were enrolled. They were divided into either a large artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke group (n=37) or a small artery occlusion (SAO) stroke group (n=54) according to the Trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment (TOAST) classification. A total of 105 age-,sex-,and residence-matched healthy subjects were enrolled as controls. A Nested Allele-Specific Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction Method was used to detect the ApoE gene polymorphism. The ApoE gene polymorphism of cerebral infarction of different gender and etiological typing were compared. Results ( 1 ) ApoE Genotypes of E2/2, E2/3, E2/4, E3/3, and E3/4 were detected,but the ApoE E4/4 was not detected. (2) There were no significant differences in the frequencies of ApoE genotypes and each gene carrier frequency between the cerebral infarction group and the control group (all P>0. 05). There was significant difference in ApoE genotype frequencies and each gene carrier frequency of the males between the cerebral infarction group and the control group (P<0. 01,P<0. 05). Both the E3/3 genotype frequency (56. 1%) and ε3 carrier frequency (78. 0%) of the cerebral infarction group were lower than the males of the control group ( 79. 2% and 89. 6% respectively );both the E3/4 genotype frequency (31. 7%) and ε4 carrier frequency (15. 9%) were higher than the control group (7. 5% and 3. 8%respectively). There was no significant differences in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency in female participants between the two groups (all P>0. 05). (3) There were no significant differences in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency among the LAA,SAO,and control groups. There was significant difference in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency in males between the LAA group and the control group (P>0. 01);the genotype frequencies of E2/3 and E3/E3 (6. 7% and 46. 7%),ε2,as well as theε3 carrier frequency (3. 3% and 73. 3%) of LAA were lower than those of the control group (13. 2%,79. 2%,6. 6%,and 89. 6%,respectively);the E3/4 genotype frequency andε4 carrier frequency of the LAA subtype were 46. 7% and 23. 3% respectively. They were all higher than 7. 5% and 3. 8% in the control group. However,there were no significant differences in males among the SAO group,the control group,and the 3 groups of females ( the LAA subtype,SAO subtypes,and the control group) (P>0. 05). Conclusion ε4 gene may be a risk factor for LAA in males. The association of ApoE gene polymorphism with cerebral infarction in females is not found.
