在有在少数的必要高血压的 1 WNK1 基因中国的 Hani 和 Yi 组织的 exon 的多型性的协会在盒子控制学习被调查。包含 WNK1 基因 exon 的 1257 bp 的顺序 1 在 1307 个个人(649 个必要高血压题目和 658 控制) 被决定在 Hani 和 Yi 少数组识别 SNP。十一以前已知的 SNP (rs3168640, rs11885, rs11554421 和 rs34880640 ) 中的四个被识别。SNP 分析显示 SNP rs11885 和 rs11554421 显著地在 Hani 和 Yi 人口与高血压被联系,并且 rs34880640 显著地在 Hani 然而并非在 Yi 人口与高血压被联系,为 covariates 调整了。Haplotype 分析显示 haplotype H1 显著地减少了在两张人口的高血压的风险。这些结果建议 WNK1 多型性在 Hani 和 Yi 人口涉及必要高血压的倾向,它的效果显示出清楚的人口特性。这发现在决定基因因素把疾病治疗与疾病并且这样联系了支持了人口特性的重要性。
The association of polymorphisms in exon 1 of the WNK1 gene with essential hypertension in the minority groups of Hani and Yi of China was investigated in the case-control study.The sequence of 1257 bp containing the WNK1 gene exon 1 was determined in 1307 individuals(649 essential hypertension subjects and 658 controls)to identify SNPs in Hani and Yi minority groups.Four of eleven previously known SNPs (rs3168640,rs11885,rs11554421 and rs34880640)were identified.The SNP analysis indicated that SNPs rs11885 and rs11554421 were significantly associated with hypertension in both Hani and Yi populations,and rs34880640 was significantly associated with hypertension in Hani but not in Yi population,adjusted for covariates.Haplotype analysis indicated that the haplotype H1 significantly decreased the risk of hypertension in both populations.These results suggested that WNK1 polymorphisms were involved in the predisposition of essential hypertension in Hani and Yi populations and its effects showed a clear population specificity.This finding supported the importance of population specificity in determining the genetic factors associated with diseases and thus disease treatment.
